What do you do?
Well heck, ya ain't going to melt!
Put on a pair of boots, wear a
good rain coat and use an umbrella. Yes, you might get wet and muddy but this is why you dress for the weather.
As Rick said it is the best time to inspect a house. You do need to be careful with the roof, besides not getting on it when it is wet the surface of a worn roof can look OK when it is wet. I have seen many wet roofs that were toast but they looked visually OK at first glance.
