rain gear in warm climate

normally when i commute to work and it is raining, i simply put on my spd sandals and get soaked.

The weather man says that it is going to start raining on the 3rd day of my 4 day tour next week. When you tour in warm climate (temperature about 70 degrees) do you use any kind of rain gear? If so, please explain. I already have covers for paniers, and fenders on the bike...

basicly I have never done longer than 15 miles in the rain. I plan to travel at least 50 miles each day of my tour.

thanks,

Mike
