Default and it started raining...

so i spent about 4 1/2 hours washing, claybaring and washing... and waxing then carnauba waxing my car... i got my hood done with the carnauba and then i heard a crack of thunder, so i took out the car that was in the garage and put mine in, and there were raindrops covering my car about 2 inces apart each. so i took my chamoise and wiped off the drops... will this have any affect on the wax i put on the car or did my hard work go to waste?

as long as the wax was already dried and applied, water will have no effect on it.
