AH, um, not that waterproof! If it is raining heavily or consistently, you will start to soak through PRETTY quickly. The Gamma SV is not going to cut it. Light precip or snow, okay, no problem. But real rain? A hard shell rain jacket is the only way to go.

extremely, nearly water proof basically, in extreme conditions (downpouring rain for 2+ hours, ect...) a little water may get through
