rain or raining

[Mike12345]

1 We won't go sightseeing because it will be rainy this weekend.
2 We won't go sightseeing because it will be raining this weekend.

Teachers, which word am I supposed to use "rainy" or "raining' in the sentence above? In my opinoin, I think both are OK, in that both words can be uesd to talk about "weather".

1. We won't go sightseeing because it will be rainy this weekend.
2​. We won't go sightseeing because it will be raining this weekend.

[STRIKE]Teachers,[/STRIKE] Which word am I supposed to use [STRIKE]"rainy" or "raining'[/STRIKE] in the sentence above "rainy" or "raining"?

See my changes above.

"Raining" is more common but "rainy" is not incorrect. I'd probably say "We won't go sightseeing this weekend because it's going/forecast to rain".
