Who else has as bad of luck as me?? Every damn time I spend washing and detailing my beloved G80 it rains that night or the next day. And before you smartasses (lol) say shoulda watched the weather report first, well Einstein I did and I do. They are as accurate as guessing the winning lotto numbers. So just venting a little because once again I spent two hours washing and detailing only to see it rain this morning when it was predicted to be low humidity and abundant sunshine.

It's not predicting the weather. It influences the weather. Washing your car crates a localized high barometric pressure area from the additional moisture in the air, which causes a chain reaction in the atmosphere that causes it to rain on your freshly washed car.
It's similar to the physics behind why it doesn't rain if you bring a rain coat somewhere.

I bought the Rain Deterrent 3000 and now my car energizes and creates a protective field preventing any cloud fallout from reaching the pristine surface of my freshly washed car.

Always thought it was funny that they named a wax "Rain Dance". Happens to all of us detail geeks.

I guess the same physics to why you never get a flat on a sunny day. 🌞

I wash all four of our cars (well three at the moment) on a three week rotation. The only affect rain has on that routine is whether I dry them off or not. Granted, I'm not rolling to the next cars and coffee but I hate driving a dirty car.

You forgot it also attracts the damn seagulls! Never fails. As soon as I'm all clean, I get dumped on by the largest possible bird.

That's because you're cloud seeding by washing your car. Only happens because the earth is flat.
