        'Sep',
        'Oct',
        'Nov',
        'Dec'
    ],
    crosshair: true
},
yAxis: {
    min: 0,
    title: {
        text: 'Rainfall (mm)'
    }
},
tooltip: {
    headerFormat: '<span style="font-size:10px">{point.key}</span><table>',
    pointFormat: '<tr><td style="color:{series.color};padding:0">{series.name}: </td>' +
        '<td style="padding:0"><b>{point.y:.1f} mm</b></td></tr>',
    footerFormat: '</table>',
    shared: true,
    useHTML: true
},
plotOptions: {
    column: {
        pointPadding: 0.2,
        borderWidth: 0
    },
       series: {
        events: {
            legendItemClick: function(event) {
                var visibility = this.visible ? '0.35' : '';
                alert(event);
            }
        }
    },
},
series: [{

You used the correct event, the remaining thing is to change opacity of the proper SVG element and colorize the legend item.

series: {
  events: {
    legendItemClick: function(e) {
      const series = this;
      const chart = series.chart;
      const hasChangedOpacity = series.hasChangedOpacity;

      series.group.attr({
        opacity: hasChangedOpacity ? 1 : 0.2
      });
      chart.legend.colorizeItem(series, hasChangedOpacity);
      series.hasChangedOpacity = !hasChangedOpacity;
      // prevent default behaviour
      return false;
    }
  }
}

Also, to keep the default series states behaviour, you need to add the below small plugin:

(function(H) {
  H.wrap(H.Series.prototype, 'setState', function(proceed) {
    if (!this.hasChangedOpacity) {
      proceed.apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
    }
  });
}(Highcharts));
