Weather for Every Season
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of AccuWeather. All opinions are 100% mine.
How about this weather? It is a classic conversation starter, isn't it? But the weather is really far more important than a small talk topic. The weather affects so much we do here. I find myself checking the weather daily, and often several times during the day, no matter the season.
In the winter we are checking for snow and freezing temperatures. Are our plans going to get snowed out? Do we have to keep water thawed for the animals? Do we need some heat in the animal sheds to keep the pipes from freezing?
In the spring, my weather watch revolves around the garden. When will it be dry enough to till the garden? Is going to warm up enough to plant? And of course we are still watching for freezing temperatures.
In the summer I'm looking for rain. Can I dry clothes on the line? Will the garden need watering? Can we take the kids swimming?
Then fall comes, and we complete the cycle. I'm still checking for rain for the garden, and starting to once again look for freezing temperatures.
Sometimes I feel like an old man checking the weather all the time, but the weather really has a huge impact on the things we do, regardless of the season. I love that I can just click on a site like AccuWeather and in a matter of seconds get an update forecast for the day or more. Today's forecast for sun with temps in the low forties means I am hanging clothes on the line, and our afternoon play date is a go. Yeah!
What are you watching the weather for?
