Supposed to be at a football game tonight watching my oldest march. Flooding, hail, almost constant lightning, 40 mph wind gusts. I’d rather be at home instead of waiting at the school to pick him up. They should have cancelled this hours ago.

Yeah, our big golf tournament fundraiser set for tomorrow got pushed back to next week because of rain. It’s a wash all around.
This is what we'll show whenever you publish anything on Kinja:

Hell, in my day nothing but lighting would stop a football game. Guess some things never change.

That is some horrible planning. This front wasn’t a surprise (I’m in Calgary reading the weather back in Houston and saw it was coming).

For the last few days, the predictions have been for the front to arrive late afternoon, with 50 mph winds, hail and sever weather between 7:00 to 10:00 pm. Which is precisely when all hell broke loose. But they dutifully loaded up all the buses with the football team and band and cheerleaders and drove them out there, only to have them sit on the buses for an hour or so before driving home. Idiotic.

Gale force winds, chance of hail, an inch of rain in just a few minutes, flash flood warnings. You don’t play anything in that sort of weather. I will say, though, that they have gotten very serious about lightning, as well they should. All the stadiums have lightning alarms, and if there’s lightning within 10 miles they put everybody inside and can’t come out until 30 minutes after the last strike.
