Rainy installation-- issues?
I was planning to install a solid wood or engineered wood floor soon and it's been raining like crazy. The forecast calls for continued rain with short breaks for the foreseeable future.
It seems like this would play havoc with moisture content. Is it simply a matter of controlling indoor temps and humidity?
Thank you for any help on this.

Solid wood and engineered wood are two differant animals.
All solids have to acclimate to the living conditions.
Most engineered do as well.Some engineered are packaged
with 9-10% MC and are ready to install. Hi moisture out doors shouldn't affect the wood unless subjected to it for some time.
