If you don't get your hands square on a ball, the fact that it's wet can make it almost feel greasy, and it can slip through your fingers. It's the same thing as the increased number of fumbles that happen on wet days. Plus, if it's cold out, and the ball is wet, and your hands are wet, you lose some of the feel for the ball that you need to grasp it.When it's 40 to 45 degrees out there, a 5-10 MPH wind, and it's raining, you lose a lot of sensitivity in your fingers, and if you aren't adept at countering it, you drop a pass here and there, because of it.That's the reason QBs have hand warmers on, and a towel. They need to keep the hands as dry as possible, and the warmer is to make sure they don't lose that sensitivity.</blockquote>
