Ok, I should have specified that I was talking about sub-freezing temperatures, and getting wet from the inside, from sweating. To me rain isn't winter :-D
Which was a pointless assumption on my part, because keeping warm in cold rain is actually a lot harder than in severe "winter" cold. I agree, it's often too hot to use a rain jacket, and the only ones I've found work well have massive vents everywhere. Best you can do may be to get wettish.
Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
