Will persistent rain harm my seeds?

I have recently sowed four rows of parsnip & three rows of turnip seeds straight into the ground on my plot.

Will this spell of heavy rain harm the seeds in any way or will they happily ride out the storm? Fortunately my plot drains very well but I am still concerned.

 

If your plot drains well I wouldn't worry but it's the cold snap forecast that might bother them as far as germinating. I don't think it's going to last long though to affect them so maybe some fleece / polytunnel covering just in case?   

The traditional time for sowing parsnips direct is February, so don`t worry about it. Just remember that parsnips are slow to germinate, up to 14 days or so.

i hope it dont hurt them cause we have had rain for two weeks and another week forcast as it takes up to ( twenty eight days) for parsnips to germinate.im in sunny guernsey ha ha.
