My rule of thumb for rain is 50-50. It rains or it doesn't.

I also leave mine off. If it rains, I mark "RAIN" on my calendar. Then when my watering day arrives I decide whether to turn it on or not. I have learned the hard way not to put too much faith in weather forcasts for rain on future days. If you don't use your watering day and it doesn't rain, you're out of luck, especially in the late spring when the weather is hot.
