I tried to launch my rockets yesterday and I got a few off before the rain hit. I flew my vintage Estes Big Bertha and of course she flew great. Next was the Monarch, a new Estes kits and she flew great. The Strike Fighter is an older kit, flew great but the parachute got tangled with the laser guns, no problem still landed softly. The last rocket is the new Estes Flutte By, flies great but comes down fast.

Yeah, those skies in pic #2 don't look all too friendly. Glad you got a few off before the rain gods noticed you.
