ALWAYS stop after about 50 miles and check the straps. They will frequently need tightening! If they don't, you are good to go. If they do, I would tighten them and re check after another 50 miles.
Straps stretch. After a few months of use, their stretch will be much less and you will have to tighten them less frequently.
Ditto...and you said it was raining. That will affect newer straps as well.
How is rain going to affect plastic straps?

Plastic as in? Ours were nylon. I guess you can call that plastic. But they do soak up water and cause them to stretch more and easier.
