I live in Vancouver where it rains for 10 months of the year, so I couldn't imagine not having the traditional cycling cap.
(It's also surprisingly warm in the winter)
I have a black CoolMax cycling cap. Spin it around backwards it keeps some sun off your neck, then you just gotta spin it around again if it starts raining or if the sun or wind gets nasty. Lots cooler than a baseball cap and fits under a helmet better too, when you gotta wear one of those. Funny how this style stuff works...bill in the front, you're a dork, bill in the back and you're hipper than ILTB in his 'Pitiful Lions' sweatshirt!
