Well, I have carried one in my summit bag for the last year or so, "just in case". Fortunately, I haven't needed to sleep out in one yet, but, I can tell you that they are weathertight... I used one as a bear bag for my food with some para cord tied around it about 1/3rd of the way down with a flap folded over. It poured buckets one night, and in the morning, everything was dry inside.
