Watched a guy in Fort Worth finish a driveway in the rain and it changed how I time my pours
I was on a job site in Fort Worth last spring and this old finisher started his pour right as a drizzle picked up, while the rest of us stood under the tailgate waiting it out. He said the light rain kept the surface from setting too fast and his broom finish came out cleaner than anything I've pulled on a dry day. Now I check the radar before I even order the truck, so does anyone else pour in light rain on purpose or am I crazy here?

My uncle poured a whole slab in a drizzle back in 2019 and bragged about it for six months straight, then the edge spalled two winters later and we never let him forget it. Honestly though a light mist is a totally different animal than a downpour, the finish work really does stay workable longer. Tbh if the radar shows nothing but green drizzle I'm pouring too.
