I accidentally locked the steering column after washing my car now its raining and I can't move my car. My car is slowly getting wet under my car port. How do I get to turning my key?

Try turning steering column, key and shifting at the same time. Keep doing it till it unlocks itself. Believe it or not, might sound weird but sometimes unhooking, re-hooking the battery helps also

Grab the wheel and push it right or left while turning the key. Got to use some muscle on the wheel (not the key)

And put a tarp or towel over your window while you figure it out
