Protecting microphones from rain overnight

[mothman_98]

Hi,=0D

 With some thunderstorms forecast over the next two days I'd like to leave =
my recording gear set up in the garden overnight to hopefully catch a tapes=
try of auditory splendour (!) possibly interspersed with the now fading daw=
n chorus. Normally I seal the recorder in a plastic box and cover with poly=
thene and just leave the homemade SASS array with the furry wind cover to c=
atch the dew. Can anyone recommend a suitable cover for the mics that will =
keep them dry and not adversely affect the sound too much. I have a fall ba=
ck plan of putting them on the verandah of a summerhouse but ideally I'd li=
ke to record in the open. I did wonder if a rubber backed coconut fibre doo=
r mat would work, the fibre might dampen the falling rain sounds?=0D
