I have a refrigerator that has been uncovered outside in rain and
snow for a month and its about 20 out now, I brought it inside
where its warm and wonder how long it should sit and dry out, would
24 hours be enough.

Never really know until it's plugged in unfortunately. For all you
know,
if
water wasn't splashing near the electrical parts and not sitting in a
couple of inches of it, it may be fine as is. If you're not desperate
to use it why not just leave it for a week.

If the motor/compressor area is accessable, maybe putting a hair
dryer under there for a while would reduce the chances of Ka-boom.

How about plugging it into a GFCI outlet for a bit. If something is
goofy
,
GFCI can kill the power a lot faster than you can.

Just random thoughts.

Actualy this tenant left it outside since September so it has been
soaked with water but not in a puddle, a tenant needs a new frige so a
week is long but it gets me worried.

MS vista for me was plug and replace everything that wasnt compatible,
