Question Rain and Leather?

<SIGH> Man I love the midwest weather

The forecast for today was 0% chance of rain with high of 86.

When I get to work I left my windows cracked a bit so it didn't get really hot in there. About 20mins ago just complete crazy @ss downpour out of nowhere! WTF!

Realizing my umbrella is in my car I just ask some random guy who walked in the door for his umbrella and ran the quarter to half a mile to the car (I have to wear business casual so I didn't want to be COMPLETELY soaked). Luckily I had a microfiber towel in the glove box and could wipe most of it off the seats and doors but it wasn't big enough to get it completely dry everywhere.

So my question is how bad is this for the leather? I've never had leather before aside from a couple of jackets. I got the car in Feb and I just started to condition the leather recently (with BMW leather care product) as of this past weekend but only got the drivers seat done.

Now that I think about it I don't think I wiped off the passenger back seat that had water sitting on the edge of it.

<SIGH> Why do I bother to have nice things?
