Santa always flies his sleigh at night so Rudolph should have come in handy before the rain affected the sky because it is more efficient to use him rather than use a candle or later. Also Santa has Christmas magic on his side so couldn't he just string magic lights around the sleigh anyways?

I think that you have thought this through better than Santa, but think of Santa's sleigh as a car, at night when it is raining, you need low beams for the nighttime, but you may need to turn your high beams on for the rain in the night, just like Santa needs Rudolph as his high beams, but decided to keep him around I guess, because you need to have high beams available in a car at all times.
