If the rain is what I class as normal the shade cloth does keep most of it off the plants. During really heavy rains with high winds can drive the rain right through.
With reduced watering in the winter I dont find too many problems with standing water as the pots are on a gravel bed in shallow trays that hold about 6 pots. These have a couple of holes in the side so they drain well.
Happily I can store rainwater, we have a 5000 litre (approx 1300 US gallon) tank for watering my plants and the garden.
