Weather Stalking - Cont.

Well I'm still doing it, obsessively looking at the weather web sites to see that pretty little cartoon sun on my wedding day's forecast. 4 days and some odd hours to go and things are looking up:

The funniest thing, is I just ran upstairs to grab my cell phone and as I passed Mr S' laptop sitting open on the couch I noticed that he had the same website open to the same weather page!

Fingers still crossed that thunder storm doesn't show up during our luau or wedding!

Let The Stalking Begin

Mr S. is obsessed with weather. You know the type, you're running away from the tornado and he's trying to see how close he can get with out pissing his pants. Yeah, that's him.

Maybe it's the fact that at least 12 times a day he checks the weather, either via his blackberry or laptop that I decided 8 months ago I needed to know what the weather on our wedding was like in the past. It was not a good idea, with how I tend to panic. My checking that, is pretty much the same thing as me jumping off a 10 story building, just to see if it hurt when I hit the ground.

Basically, to sum it up, it has rained on our wedding date every year for the past 5 years. Needless to say I have been waiting for the ability to check the 10 day forecast for quite sometime.

Remember the "jumping off a building" analogy? Yea, I just took a flying leap.

Here's the weather forecast for the wedding day and my outdoor luau rehearsal dinner which is on the 21st.

Now, I know. Weather people are often wrong. And just because it says scattered doesn't mean that it will be all day, in fact it could only rain in the early morning hours. And I wish that knowing that in my heart of hearts calmed me a little. But it doesn't. Not even a little.

Needless to say, I will be stalking the weather website every day, several times a day. And praying as hard as I can that I have a bright sunny beautiful day! I don't know what I will do if I have to take all my wedding pictures inside.

I don't care if they say that rain on your wedding day is good luck. I'm convinced that's something a wedding planner came up with at one point to calm down a panicking bride to be! It's crap!

Rain, Rain GO AWAY!!!

Want to know what the weather has been like on your wedding date, for years gone by? Simply go to this web site:

Weather Web Site

Now, WAIT! Before you go and leave my blog behind to research - you will find this links you to California, but if you input your zip or city in the box found tot he left of the page it will take you to your area.

I already did mine and have to say - I'm now even more worried about my big day - RAIN! Oh no!

Here's how this breaks down for me and Mr S. - We're getting married August 23, 2008 - here's the weather for years past:

2007 - Light to Heavy Rain all day
2006 - Thunderstorms in the very early am (12 am- 7am) with overcast the rest of the day.
2005 - Mostly Cloudy or scattered clouds through out the whole day
2004 - Over cast all day with rain in late evening
2003 - Mostly Cloudy

I'm now even more stressed about how the day will turn out. And you know, it's not so much the rain on the day of that bothers me - I can handle that. It's more that there's no opportunity for creative out door photos when it's pouring rain outside.

I guess I'll have to wait and see when the day comes. Not much I can really do about it.
