If it is pxssing rain with a strong crosswind on a tapered runway (banking the water on one side of the runway) with no grooving then the runway may well be contaminated with poor braking. ALL of the pre-mentioned factors go out the window and you either hold or divert. A reputable ops manual might state that landing on a contaminated runway shall not be attempted unless a greater emergency exists...
