53Movinon,
I have to agree with tinnerjohn. I used to live in the Portland Oregon area. I used Rain-X, on my windshield. I used the type that you wipe on with a clean rag. Then wipe off with a dry clean rag, after it gets hazy on your windshield. Using that and the a fresh set of the stock flat blades, worked very well. Like you, I didn't set out to drive it in a rain storm. However, they just seem to happen up there.
