How do you deal with rain?

I too love rain. We had a particularly dry spell last summer and then one day of rain and I spent so much time outside with no coat that day!
 
I use my coat as it has a hood on it.
I don't like getting my hair wet when it rains as it knots up while I'm out and it becomes a pain to un-knot when I get home.

Same!! One of my favorite jackets isn't completely waterproof, but it does the job for short distances. My raincoat is way too big on me, but I'll use it when I have to.
 
When we get rain in the UK, we always get wind with it, making using an umbrella useless most of the time. If I need to go out in the rain I will wear something with a hood and go for it but if I do not need to head out, I leave it and wait until the rain eases.
