If showers hit mid-parade, do paid stands actually give cover, or is everyone equally soaked. Also need a backup if our seats fall through — watch a short stretch near the temple exit then leave early.

Most stands are open air. A poncho or shell matters more than the ticket. If seats fall through, a short respectful watch near a temple-side exit then an early exit is a sane backup.

Do not force a full-night stand in horizontal rain with kids. See a segment, then go.

Know your exit alley before the sky opens. Wet crowds move slower and tempers shorten.
