Default Does your hood steam in the rain too?

I've been wondering this for a while, because I rarely noticed it with my LS. When I drive the R in the rain, the hood steams all the water off when I'm not moving.

I was getting all sorts of funny looks at the gas station last night. h:

I'm assuming it's a pretty common thing, because my temp gauge has been perfrectly normal.

No... I think you just pissed off your R and now she's hot under the hood

All I was doing was driving normally. Maybe it had something to do with 40 degree temps?

My car does it... and so does every other Honda I've driven in the rain. My 92 Acura did, my friend's 92 Prelude VTEC does, and another friend's 95 Integra LS does. I wouldn't worry too much.
