Central New York. In terms of the rain, any framing lumber used is going to be treated and you'd have to saturate the wood for weeks on end with water to push it's moisture level beyond acceptability. So unless your lumber is sitting on a lot in standing water or something, there really isn't much to be concerned with as far as that goes. Assuming the house is allowed to dry out before it's wrapped up or sealed and insulated, there shouldn't be any issues with rain.
However, usually with the rain comes wind and sometimes, thunderstorms. So the workers aren't going to be out in a thunderstorm, obviously, if it's too windy, they're not going to be framing or up working on a roof.
That being said, the first floor was essentially framed yesterday, and they started on the second floor. They've completed the framing work on the only other house in the area they are currently building, which happens to be just down the street from us...so we're expecting the framing to be done by Monday at the latest.
