The sentence is in PAST PERFECT tense. So, the correct sentence will be : No sooner had I opened the door than the rain, heavy and stormy, rushed in making us shiver from head to foot.

"no sooner I opened the door" is also correct but I couldn't understand the whole sentence itself. But you are right purnima!
