I suspect biggest danger is hitting large puddles which may splash A LOT of water up at one time.

I was thinking about it too, I get a lot of rain out here in oklahoma. I looked into preventative stuff and there is a screen made for after market car cold air intakes. it basically looks like a lacy sock that you slip over your intake filter. I am considering modding one to fit over my newgen snorkel.
Here is a pic I found of one. I wouldn't have any problems hitting a good puddle around my area. When I order one and mod it I'll do a test and see if it works out.
