Narrative:
During a night approach and landing to runway 27R, rainshower intensities varied throughout rollout on runway. At touchdown, rainshower was heavy. Intensity diminished significantly throughout mid-point of runway, and increased to very heavy intensity at rollout end, with severely reduced visibility. Landing and rollout were normal, using brakes, speed brakes and reversers. Aircraft was slowed to taxi speed, and reversers were stowed. While attempting to turn onto taxiway, aircraft slid, going beyond runway threshold.

Title: DC10 ACFT ENCOUNTERED HVY RAIN ON APCH AND LNDG. LNDG ROLLOUT NORMAL, BUT WHEN EXITING RWY AT END, ACFT SLID OFF THE THRESHOLD.
Narrative: DURING A NIGHT APCH AND LNDG TO RWY 27R, RAINSHOWER INTENSITIES VARIED THROUGHOUT ROLLOUT ON RWY. AT TOUCHDOWN, RAINSHOWER WAS HVY. INTENSITY DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY THROUGHOUT MID-POINT OF RWY, AND INCREASED TO VERY HVY INTENSITY AT ROLLOUT END, WITH SEVERELY REDUCED VISIBILITY. LNDG AND ROLLOUT WERE NORMAL, USING BRAKES, SPD BRAKES AND REVERSERS. ACFT WAS SLOWED TO TAXI SPD, AND REVERSERS WERE STOWED. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TURN ONTO TXWY, ACFT SLID, GOING BEYOND RWY THRESHOLD.
