    In heavy rain I do see a decrease in mpg. But you really have to be careful since the Prius has a low ground clearance any flooding can be a problem even more than if you had a regular car. Having said that the handling of the car is not too bad in moderate to heavy rain as long as there isn't flooding. Yje climate control system keeps the windsield and other windows clear in my experience.
