Interesting comment. When it gets to plus 1C or 34F and rain then it can either go either way to rain or snow. Snow generally does not stick like rain. Having said that as mentioned above with a wind , cool temp and rain can be pretty uncomfortable.

Probably about the fourth time I have experienced hypothermia. Big mistake was poor rain pants and too much forehead exposed. Thanks all for the clothing tips!
