Compost heap too wet - what to do?

Too wet.
Should I repeatedly turn it?
Or what?
Ideally, turn it to loosen it. But, in any case, cover it loosely
with polythene or something to keep the rain off and let it drain.
When it is a better moisture level, turn it and cover it or not
as the rain indicates.
In almost every case, doing nothing would work, too, as it will
dry out somewhat next 'summer' and carry on rotting down then.
But it would take longer - perhaps a year or two.
