Disaster. Never do a front brake job in the driveway in the PNW. 8 hours later
I am done. A 1 hour brake job took about 8 hours (rear was done Saturday eve). Scenario, work 5 minutes, take an hour rain break. Then the bedding process I could not get out from under a nasty hail storm cloud, then the cool down drive. Yep, stop and go due to a wreck (someone could not see during the hail storm I guess). What a day. Today the ar heads to the shop for the final, ss lines and a fluid flush.

I remember those days of laying on my back with water running down my *** in Olympia.
Trying to change out a starter or some such thing. Fun!
Here, we only had some wind & 70° temps from your rainstorm. Course here in the wintertime, it's tough to work in subzero weather so there are tradeoffs.

That's what a dry suit is for!
Back home in the land of eternal rain and general weather nastiness I used to be able to get used dry suits. They had been retired for diving becuse of pinholes which would let water in when under pressure but worked great for lying in the gutter in a couple of inches of snow/water/oil.
Ah good times. I would swap this heat for that any day.
