I camped through a few rain showers, I never woke up wet even after a couple small hole repairs. None of the storms were really heavy downpours though.

It has a good tub flooring but I would strongly suggest the footprint which not only adds durability but helps it sit above some of the ground moisture and prevent condensation pooling.

The Hubba HP is very waterproof. Just be aware that almost everything will leak over sustained periods of rainfall. If you're using this tent the way it is intended to be used, you'll be just fine. Even in the northwest, the sun does come out every once in awhile! After a few years, you might want to spray it with Nikwax Gear & Tent Proof just to keep it honest.
