rainstorms everywhere [?]
An aguacero is not just rain, it's a rainstorm, thunderstorm, raining cats & dogs, etc.
"Hay aguaceros por todas partes" sounds a little unusual, as though someone is looking at a weather map of a large region & noting that there are rainstorms all over the place.
Context should help your final choice.

There are leaks all over the place..
...or similar. Although the first meaning is as given by the other contributors (i.e. aguaceros = showers) your context may be leaks in a roof say. Just an alternative suggestion. As a more literal rendering I would say 'It's raining all over'. It's neutral, doesn't imply heavy rain...

Aguaceros = downpours, it's a bit stronger than 'showers' or 'rain'
'Hay aguaceros por todas partes.' is an odd sentence construction, but to keep the same tone, I would suggest "There are downpours everywhere." OR "There are heavy showers everywhere."

I have to agree with pberrymn with regard to the exact literal meaning although aguacero in Costa Rica can mean a very heavy drenching, sloshing, inundating, gushing, soaking, overflowing, interminable tropical downpour not necessarily accompanied by a thunderstorm

aguaceros = heavy rain
"Aguaceros" means heavy rain. It is NOT a storm. Storms are usually accompanied by either thunder or wind. I would translate it...
...there is heavy rain everywhere.
Hope this helps! Good Luck!
