I recently came across these things. They are weatherproof gaskets for outdoor electrical connections. I use them and they work great. I've had them sit in puddles of water for days without tripping GFCIs. You might check them out.

$5.99 for package of 5, but then it says $0.30/pack. What is the scoop?

Save your money. Buy a box of 100 vinyl gloves and some zip ties
from Harbor Freight. Fold the cord ends over each other, slip a glove over
the plug/receptacle and secure it with a zip tie. Position the glove "fingers
up" and let it rain.

I do this at Halloween and Christmas and have never had a GFCI trip.

A power strip can be covered with a plastic box with some weight on
top so it doesn't blow away. One extension cord to a "hub location"
and then multiple cords from there.

Something like this...
