If you are on a fairly long trip and the weather is something like "Mostly sunny with a chance of late day thunder storms" (practically every hot day here!), what should you do if a thunderstorm does develop while underway?
I have XM weather hooked up to my chartplotter, which is quite accurate, and my default would be to find a place to dock and take cover when visual observations and the weather data dictate, but what if there is no where to dock? What is the best course of action?
I know there will be responses saying "don't get caught in a storm to begin with" but short of never going out, it is inevitable I think.
