The rain wasn't all that bad, but then again it's the rainy season in Indonesia. I would say it rained 5 nights out of 7. Seemed to rain harder in Kuta than Ubud. It only rained at night and would only last 45 minutes to an hour at most. One night in Kuta, the thunder boomed and it began pouring very hard just as we trying to hail a taxi for dinner. I didn't bother haggling over the cab fare as I was just glad to be inside a vehicle at that moment. If the weather has you concerned, bring a LIGHT, thin rain jacket. Nothing heavy as with the rain comes humidity.
I envy the fact that you'll be in Bali for 6 weeks. Trip of a lifetime, I'd say.
Best wishes and good luck.
Keith.
