Got up this morning and it was a little cold but tolerable. Sun comes out early and is shining all day. The temperature shoots up into the 60s and it is beautiful. I think to myself "Man what a beautiful day! I believe I'll go give my boat a thorough cleaning top to bottom in preparation for my first tournament of the year next week. I drag out the shop vac and the buckets and hose, turn my phone on to Bassmaster live and get ready to work my butt off. I clean all the trash out of the nooks and crannies and fire up the vacuum. The sun feels good. I get to about 80% done vacuuming and literally in about 30 seconds it gets dark and it was at that time God decided that I don't need the hose to wash out the boat today. He'll handle the water for me. It rains so hard I'm not sure if it is coming up or down. No rain in the forecast no clouds in the sky until just then. I grab my phone and make a mad dash for the front door(which in my age and shape a wandering amble is the best I got). I come in the house and look at the weather app on my phone. 100% chance of rain from 1-3 pm with thunderstorms possible. Literally 3 hours ago it said no rain at all.  I think I'm cursed. Anybody else as lucky as me?

I have that luck during baseball season.

All the time. I’ll be looking out the window and it’s almost a white out and the app is saying no snow for at least 60 minutes. Anymore I trust my joints to tell me of the chance of rain.😁

One can use these reliable occurrences to control the weather. For myself, if the lawn needs water I wash the cars. If it’s a crappy day and we want it to be sunny I leave my sunglasses at home.

Apparently you don’t play golf 

We woke up to this this morning.  I already was not planning to fish for other reasons, but yeah this puts a damper on things.  

We had a covering of snow this morning too, luckily the 36 degree steady rain got rid of it 

We had a few nice days and then it’s been upper 30 and low 40s highs since and some snow.

 

It looks like it’ll be getting better finally

Weather terrorism

 

@TnRiver46 would agree with me

Welcome to the club.

She’s a wirehair vizsla technically, though not very wiry. She is just over a year old now.

Love it.  My absolute favorite dogs on the planet.

not going to reply to this thread in the fear of angering our local weather.  

 

 

Evertime I get a day to go fishing, It is the most windy day of the week!☹️
