Wellies? ;)
How traditional are we talking? Basically, the same sort of wet weather clothes you'd wear with trousers. A rain cape is nice, but impractical if you're actually doing anything physical, and won't protect against the cold unless you're going to invest in a "real" tweed inverness cape (and they're dear.).
My experience is fairly limited to a few parades that took place during monsoons, and the occasional highland games that was made more authentic by the Scottish weather. In each case, I found that as long as I had good boots, and something to keep the top half of me dry (usually a jacket and my trusty tilley hat), then the kilt wasn't such a problem.
I have seen people wear rubber overshoes with their ghillie brogues, though, if you insist on wearing ghillie brogues (or they're part of your band uniform, as in the cases I saw it.)
"To the make of a piper go seven years of his own learning, and seven generations before. At the end of his seven years one born to it will stand at the start of knowledge, and leaning a fond ear to the drone he may have parley with old folks of old affairs." - Neil Munro
