Believe it or not...'twas a time in my life, (grad school), when I was seriously toying with the idea of becoming a Weather Man!  I've always been intrigued by clouds, (hence my business logo!).  I can only imagine how bizarre my TV weather program would have been - had I pursued meteorology.

Did you ever notice how Weather has the element of power over people?  Weather can change people's moods - even their personalities.  Think of long periods of rainy, gloomy days when everything seems dreary and sad.  There's a reason why companies manufacture "full-spectrum" light bulbs that simulate natural sun light.  They can elevate one's entire outlook on the world around them. 

Weather can also cause people to re-arrange their entire plans.  People dress for the weather.  Leisure activities are largely determined by local weather.  Everyone reacts differently to Weather.  Like the name of the Marilyn Monroe movie says, "some like it hot"...whilst others prefer more arctic conditions.  Farmers pray for rain...while vactioners dream of shine.

But the one thing that everyone agrees on is the unpredictability of Weather!  The Weatherman's forecast is a constant topic of lively discussion.

After a long and difficult winter, 2009 in Southeastern Wisconsin finally featured some long-awaited warm temperatures.  70 plus degrees; motorcycle riding weather!  The outdoors begin to come alive in Racine, WI as you can see in the photos below:

But shortly after that, everything quickly changed.  Check out these photos below:

Wow, what a drag it must be to be a flower!  I mean they can't very well go back down into the ground, right?!
