I don't know about everyone else, but my mileage goes down quite a bit in the rain. For one I'm using a lot more power to run the wipers, headlights, air conditioner and defrost blower. Secondly, driving through water puddles really slow the car down, so after the puddle slows me down, I have to accelerate back up to speed after passing the puddle.
