You don't get interferance as such with digital satellite. You either get a picture or you don't. If the signal is poor you may see bad pixelation or the picture freezing.
You should not really have problems with heavy rain. I suspect you dish need re aligning or has been poorly installed. Some of the installations by the Sky engineers are not very good, the worst are usually the sub contractors. I personally think they should install the slightly larger zone 2 dishes this far north especially with the quad LNB's that are used with Sky+ and/or multiroom (zone 1 - 48cm zone 2 - 60cm, they are both the same shape). The 48cm zone 1 dishes are usually ok up here but in very bad weather you can start to loose signal.
