I've slowed down a fair bit by the time I reach the intersection so stopping in the rain is not a problem in the case of crummy drivers. Pedestrians out of no where are a problem regardless of the weather. I haven't hit a person yet (knock on wood) and I hope I don't, but the out of no where jumping in front of the bike will be one of those personal growth lessons for the pedestrian.
