Steam from grill area during rain

Depending on the way the rain is blowing, I could get an excessive amount of steam from the grill area. During the rain, if I am sitting still, or on a hill, it is persistant.

What are some ways to block the grill to keep this from happening, but still maintain the overall purpose of the grill?

A lot of cars do this. It is what it is. Don't let it distract you and enjoy the ride!

mine would steam a bit after i washed it and then after it was dryed it would have a little bit of a condensation effect from the hot car to the cold air, normal for any car. since you are burning something in there
