I had to wash my cars in the rain (Detroit) for 6 years due to living in a home with high iron content well water, unfiltered to the outside faucets. I never had any issues with dirt from rain, it's so miniscule.

I have all sorts of 997 fun planned this sunny weekend, and want to get the car shined up for it—only problem is that it’s supposed to rain tomorrow.
so it got me to thinking...what about washing the car in the rain (spraying, foaming, washing, rinsing) and then pulling into the garage for a nice blow dry and microfiber finish?
Anybody have success with that? Anything to look out for?

"Rainwater is naturally soft, but dissolved carbon dioxide gas from the atmosphere makes it slightly acidic. ... Carbonic acid in the rainwater dissolves soluble minerals in the rocks, increasing the water's hardness."
