Default smoking cigarettes in rain

with the s2000(mine is the '06) when you are smoking a cigarette while it is raining, the rain water from the front window gets pushed straight inside the car. Now im assuming the obvious it is cause by the aero dynamic and plus the edge of the convertible cause the water to be pushed in that direction. so now the question is HOW DO I FIX THIS ISSUE?

There is no cure.
It happens in the AP1 and the 2.
I tried everything I could think of.

So the problem isn't the smoking but the water getting in?

You could run the pass window cracked and blow the smoke over there?

Unorthodox idea:

Windows up, top down. Never go below 40mph

This man is thinkin outside the box. It's crazy enough to work

You could unlatch the top w/o lowering it. That might let the smoke out and keep the water out. It might rip your top off too though (at speed)
