Because we're all firmly convinced that we're going to live to be 120 and finally shuffle off this mortal coil by being shot by someone's jealous husband.Originally Posted by sundial
there is an 80% chance of rain/thunderstorms and hubby wanted to ride his motorcycle to work.Why don't men listen??
Considering, this is from somebody who rode to work this morning in the same 80% prediction so he could try out the fenders on the new commuter bike...

YEsterday, while waiting out the storm under a church driveway canopy, we saw not one, but two kites flying during the thunderstorm. Nice long tails on them.
DH was the one who suggested shelter, though I had been watching the sides of the road for likely spots for a couple of miles already by the time he did.
Today, more rain is predicted, but he rode his bike to work anyway. I think this is a worse situation than yesterday -- he'll be riding through drive-time traffic, and does not have his screaming yellow jacket with him. His shirt today is a kind of muted green...
I have been watching the progression of the rain areas on weather.com and called him a bit ago to let him know that if he wants me to meet him, I'll be more than happy to. I don't think he enjoyed the rainy ride home (after the lightning stopped) as much as I did!
