Is Blue Lagoon worth it in the rain?

I've visited the Iceland Blue Lagoon several times, in different kinds of weather. As you can see by my photos, I've seen the Blue Lagoon on a gorgeous day in May; I've also visited the Blue Lagoon on a cold and rainy August day. It wasn't ideal, but it was still worth visiting the Blue Lagoon in the rain.
