I've been putting my tomatoes and aubergines outside in the daytime for a week or two now. This morning I didn't put them out because it was still very cold with frost on the ground, but that's the only day in the last couple of weeks when I didn't put them out first thing in the morning. If it's wet and windy I still chuck them out. When they're outside, they're next to a wall so they're reasonably sheltered, and a bit of rain won't hurt them. They've been out in quite heavy rain and even a hail shower or two and it hasn't done any damage. I'd be careful about putting them in a spot where they catch a lot of wind though, you don't want to get the stems damaged.
Obviously don't chuck them outside for the first time when it's a chilly day, aim to start them off with a nice sunny day, but they'll start to acclimatise after a day or two and they don't need the weather to be perfect. I always think they instantly start looking stronger and putting on a growth spurt when they're outside in the daytime. The forecast overnight temps for my area are not looking too bad for the rest of week, so I'm going to start leaving a few of those tomatoes in the tunnel (in pots under fleece overnight) at the end of the week, with the aim to get everything in there by the end of April.
