You ever drive to the meeting, or field service meeting point, and do a U-Turn and go back home?

last night, the pretty little weather girl stated there would "be heavy rain marked by occasional thunderstorms.
" i thought to myself, great, hopefully its so bad when i awaken, anybody originally planning on going out, will just stay home.
