Carradice make awesomely designed and made, if rather old-skool, panniers - their cotton duck material is to all intents waterproof. Check them out too. Touring classics!
Before you buy panniers, actually fit them to your bike with you on it and clipped into the pedals - make sure you don't suffer heel strike because different panniers put the bag in different positions (subject to the constraints of your rack).
