Need Help ASAP Rain in Como!

I just checked the weather in Como and Bellagio and the day and night I was to be their showers all day! I have Turin booked the following day should I just go to Turin directly from Milan airport and spend two full days in Turin. In my thinking I figure that I could do more in a city (Turin) if the weather is bad!

I mean this in the nicest possible way - but even IF th weather forecast is accurate, will you melt in the rain??

Hmm... Lake Como is not that nice in the rain. But if it's going to be "showers", probably means it will be on and off and not a total down pour. Personally, I'd still give it a go. We were in Positano and it was supposed to rain every day according to the forecast, and in reality, we got caught in the rain for exactly 5 minutes during 5 days.

Scott--

We stayed in Bellagio a week ago and it rained for 2 days out of the 3 we were there.

I agree with janisj--I don't think you will melt in the rain. Take a raincoat and an umbrella and enjoy.

We had rain at Lake Garda a few years ago; it didn't rain steadily and the mists and clouds added to the atmosphere, actually. The sheer cliffs appearing suddenly out of the clouds were quite spectacular.

Besides, as you know of course, it is pretty hard to predict the weather exactly...

It's possible that I may melt because I am very sweet, that said I was only going to spend a day and night that's all the time I have. If the weather is down pouring as the weather predicts I didn't see the point. I guess I will have to make that decision when I arrive Milan, but thanks for your opinions. I have been to Milan and always wanted to see the lake region. So I hope for fair weather.
