Kind of a dumb question by the way, it's been raining on pot plants for millions of years.

yea i know it seems like a dumb question. so there no way it will get too much water and drown? gets atleast 9 hours of direct sunlight a day.

Make sure your container has proper drainage, it will be fine. The rain should not be floating your plant, it should drain immediately.

Although taking inside under HID's would be the move if you are expecting a week's worth of shitty weather (and have the indoor setup).
