WALK BROOKLYN BRIDGE IN RAIN??
 
Help! I had planned to start our mother/daughter NYC trip walking the Brooklyn Bridge....the weather calls for 70% chance of rain and high winds...should I move this "event" to the end of the trip or will it still be just as spectacular in the rain? Is the MET open on Monday's, I have received different information.

Thanks for your help!

The simplest way to get an accurate answer is to go right to the sources - as in the Met website. And no - they are not open on Mondays.

As for walking the Brooklyn Bridge - in a light drizzle I would go right ahead. In heavy rain and wind I would bag it - it wouldn't be pleasant.
