On a rainy day like today, best move is to stick close to the buildings and stay away from the outer part of the sidewalk. You can find some shelter close to the building, although you have to be mindful of the water pouring off of the awnings. Also, the further away from the street, the safer you are from a car splashing you.
Especially when you don’t wear your galoshes, right?
