July 22, 200817 yr f@#king rain. I wanted to go kayaking, but NOOOOOO we've got thunderstorms which I would have known if I had checked the weather at any point during the day.
July 22, 200817 yr Author I used to keep weather.com as my home page. Probably ought to go back to that.
July 22, 200817 yr www.weather.com No thanks are necessary. That's a poser website. This one is the real deal... only they have the balls to put 'accu' in front of weather. http://www.accuweather.com/ Edited July 22, 200817 yr by Captainbooyah

July 22, 200817 yr personally i like noaa.gov for my weather got a nice little radar on it. just click where you live
July 22, 200817 yr Hey Satty, not sure if you use FireFox, but there's a neat add-on that, when you open a new tab or a new window, will show thumbnails of I think it's 9 websites of your choice. So whenever you open it you can quickly choose between your favorite sites or most visited, and seeing a thumbnail of a weather website might help you remember to check the weather. I forget the name of the add-on, I can check when I get home.
July 25, 200817 yr Author I have a new dilemma today. Didn't skip work (hooray for working 4 days a week!) but the forecast is calling for "isolated thunderstorms" but the radar shows the bulk of the storm well north except for one small cluster thats either going to dissipate or go right over where I'll be kayaking.
July 25, 200817 yr Why can't you kayak in the rain? Isn't it a water-sport? (save the golden shower jokes peanut gallery)
July 25, 200817 yr Why can't you kayak in the rain? Isn't it a water-sport? (save the golden shower jokes peanut gallery) Rain is one thing but a thunderstorm is another.
July 25, 200817 yr Author Yeah, biking and kayaking when its sprinkling is one thing. Hell, I've bike about 20 miles in a downpour. Not my brightest moment, but I digress. Thunderstorms, especially of the magnitude we've been getting lately, are not something I want to play with. The one that came through Tuesday was pretty epic. It appears as if everything has passed, it go a little overcast for a bit, but nothing came down, time to hit the lake.
July 25, 200817 yr Author (save the golden shower jokes peanut gallery) Thank you, Mayor Simpson. Because of you, we are all taking golden showers.
July 25, 200817 yr Author I was barely on the water an hour and my gloriously pale skin is now the pink hue typical of the common man. And 68, I cant hear "golden shower" without thinking of Kent Brockman, with gold chains around his neck, saying that then going "What?" when everyone starts to laugh.
