Michele,
Congratulations on the foal. By know you have probably heard from
others, but my suggestion is to be very cautious leaving the new born
foal out in cold, rainy weather. They don't have a lot of stored
reserves when they are born, and even when they get good colostrum,
they can chill easily, especially because they like to lie down a
lot.
If the weather continues as you describe it, I would suggest
bringing mom and baby inside, and drying the foal off as best you
can.
