Is it ok to set concrete fencing posts while it is raining?

I am setting 4x4x8 posts for privacey fence and its going to be raining on and off. Is it ok to set these posts while it is raining?|||yes, just leave the posts secured with the leveling guy-lines until you are certain the concrete has set.


there will be very little surface area exposed. covering it only helps to slow the drying process, which is not an issue if it is raining/cloudy. the concrete will not be harmed by the rain!|||The reason people use concrete to cement fence posts in the ground is to give is more rigidity. This increases the surface area underneath the ground, making it less likely to shift and move.





You can do this in the rain. The concrete you are adding has no structural value so the water to product ratio does not matter.|||Concrete sets best when it hardens slowly, so it should be watered daily for a few days. But, if it gets %26quot;overly%26quot; wet like in a rain, it will weaken in strength. The best solution is, after you%26#039;ve poured it, cover it with plastic for at least the first 24 hours so direct rain doesn%26#039;t hit it. Then you can remove the plastic and let it rain.|||Yes.





Slope the ground at it should be no problem.
