Is it Me?

Is it me or does every weather man have there head up there butt

I had a fishing trip planned for last night, I rushed home from work mowed the acre of lawn in record time then get all my gear ready I sat down before a shower to check the weather and they said thunder and lightning at 9pm in Rhode Island. I will fish in the rain all night long but lightning no way. So now I call and cancel and guess what it didn't happen no rain no thunder and no lighning until this morning.

Surfcasting Full Throttle

Don't judge me Monkey

Bob some heavy cells ran through the ri/ma boarder around 6:30 or so and lasted a few hours. Real nasty stuff they canned the baseball game after the 3rd lightning strike in 10 minutes

I saw plenty of lightning to the far north of where I was fishing.
Yesterday was certainly a bonus as far as the weather was concerned.

Tattoo I don't blame you. I would have at least driven in that direction though.
