I've even found the fly and groundcloth only method to be a great way to get out of mid-day showers. Anytime the bad clouds roll in and my barometer drops I throw my groundcloth down and put up my poles and tarp. If its just a shower I enjoy the light rain and eat some gorp. If it becomes more serious I just attach the tent without ever leaving the safety of my shelter. I love this option and use it all the time. It even works well to get out of a scorching sun for lunch during the summer.
