How to keep water out of the WSM?

[Ed G]

I always cover the Bullet after use, making sure the vents are all closed and the cover hangs over the bottom vents. Despite my efforts, during rainy weather, water somehow gets into the cooker and collects in the bowl. Is there a method any of you guys have used to keep water out between cooks?

I use a large trash bag to cover and then place the weber cover over that, works very good.

I do the same!

The seams on the cover tend to be leaky. Get some seam sealer at a sporting goods store and that should take care of it. Dave's trash bag suggestion is also a good work-around.

I think you have the answers about the water intrusion above. One thing to mention though is that personally I always leave the bottom vents open so air can circulate a bit to aid in evaporation of any condensation. Once you get the water intrusion solved you should be able to leave the bottom vents open.
