For the late summer rains it is hot so getting drenched is lucky. Sadly it does not happen enough.
In the winter here the air is cool and when it rains it can be in the low 40s. In those conditions I typically wear a wool jersey and knee warmers anyway and find that they are warm enough when wet. When it gets not so fun is when it rains in the morning and then I have to put on damp shorts and jersey for the ride home, but once I get going I forget.
