It came down in buckets!  I haven't seen rain like this in Los Angeles in about two years and it had to happend when I decided not to cover up the Lil' Red Devil.  When the rain started, I thought it was going to be moderately light rain, but before I knew it, and before I started thinking about how it was effecting my car, it was pouring.  I went out during the first day of rain and checked on the driver side, where the weather stripping has come loose from the window.  I felt around on the carpet and, phew, it was still dry.  A day later and about a few million gallons of water later, I decided for some reason, to check the passenger side.  I guess the rain had come at more of a 90 degree angle to the window and was abke to leak into the air vent in front of the passenger-side window.  The floor was damp.  I immediately took advantage of the delay in the deluge and applied the cover, which I shoukld have done in the first place.  Although my initial hesitation was due to the fact that the current cover I have is not water-proof, it turned out to be pretty effective in keeping the water out of the interior.  Now, I wait for the sun and see exactly how much damage was done.  Time to invest in a water-proof cover.
