The phrase "In case" simply means "if."

If it should happen that... it rains
In case... it rains
If ... it rains

They will be used slightly differently. Use "in case" when you should be prepared for something that MIGHT happen.

"Take an umbrella in case it rains," but not "In case it rains, the game will be cancelled."
