I swear, the weather is targeting me. I check the radar and weather before I go to bed, no threat of bad weather the next day. In the morning I get up, check the weather again, still looks good so I depart to my destination. About halfway to my destination the sky starts turning a little dark, by the time I arrive at my destination it's full blown thunderstorms with enough lightening to turn darkness into day. I just can't seem to get away from it this year.....:BangHead:

Sorry I washed my car! That's what triggers these thunder storms. Had some close lightning last night. Flash of light was right there with the sound so it just missed us...

It's not just you, every time I uncover my blazer or leave a window open on my car it rains even when there's no rain in the forecast. Has a few hunts go that way too.

Had plans to hit the water today after making my rounds. Sure, first stops were hot and humid, last two stops were between rain drops and then temps dropped and rain almost non stop since. Maybe next week.

I'm going to try to get in the water again tomorrow. :dontknow:

Plant some seeds and do not water them.
Do a rain dance and plead for rain.
Wear a raincoat.
Carry an umbrella.
Or ,do all the above on the local tv stations weather broadcast and guarantee rain tomorrow.


I planted a hundred miscanthus rhizomes a couple months ago and that made it quit raining for weeks.......

I don't mind the rain, hunted in a pour down for a couple hours the other day. It's all of that thunder and bright stuff with static that I don't like. :laughing7:

I usually detect until I hear the lightning in my headphones. Then it's time to pack up!
