They can't predict the weather accurately one day out, don't worry about it.

I think, if you can drive in the snow, you can race in the wet. All you have to do is treat the bike like its a scared animal. No sudden movements, otherwise it might bite. Make all your inputs smooth so as not to startle the bike. When braking, ease into full braking to plant the tire, then you will be surprised how hard you can actually brake.
