extension cords and rain
I have a 25ft extension cord that I have to attach sometimes to the shorepower cord to reach the receptacle. Should I try to do anything special with where it connects if it is raining. I know water...

I found that my TT plug and the end of the extension cord had signs of arcing (burn marks) after I had to use the extension cord when stopped for an overnight without unhooking. It rained on me driving into site, while setting up and all night as well as the next morning unhooking. the connection did appear to be quite wet that morning as I disconnected.
Since that time I bought a SockitBox from Amazon. I have also seen people that make something similar out of plastic storage boxes of some type. For me, it was worth the cost, to have it already made. I use it for months at a time set up at the house. When I have checked it, everything inside has been COMPLETELY DRY. Sure makes me feel better.
