Default Wet Intake

Didn't really know where to put this, so i figured i'd throw it in here.

I have a CAI on my car, and recently the fender lining ripped off on the freeway somehow, so i've been running without one for quite a while, so the CAI is exposed to everything below the bumper line.

It just started raining today, first time since i've installed the intake, and alot of water is getting up there. is it enough water to suck up and ruin my engine though? i know the filter is starting to get damp...

lets hope not.

theres not much chance of a damp air filter causing hydrolockage, is there?
