However, some of these "semi-slick" or "super 200s" can be okay in some light rain, its really just standing water you have to watch out for. I've run CRS, RE71R, RS4, etc from brand new all the way down to the cords. In wet weather its not too bad really, but you will get sketchy over standing water. I had a nice experience on the highway over some standing water on basically slick RE71Rs (hope you can read the sarcasm over the internet).

Well it seems that almost all semi slicks ever that are there, are made for 70-100 deg C operating temps range (150 - 210 F). And it's actually not really all that warm where I live. We rarely have temps above 18C (65 F) which makes it a bit pointless to get typical hard slicks.
I made some additional research and it seems that Nankang AR-1 grip almost immediately, even without warming up which sounds nice and just like what I'm looking for but when I look at them, even those Extreme VR2 that I posted look like chill, balanced rain tire XD Nankang seems like immediate death after encountering puddle.
