Anyone sick of this shat lately. Rain, wet, or windy every day for 2-3weeks. Can’t remember exactly when I was able to take Zodiac out but it’s been a while for sure. some days they tease us with sunny forecast only to wake up to cloudy, wet, SCAs.
Cant do anything on boat, everything is soaking wet.
Just saw forecast for Thursday thru Saturday. Sunny. Watch it will change to wet by then.

Another reason for me selling my boat! The weather patterns did not help with my ability to use the boat!!
 
We are only a few hours south of you - nothing but gorgeous weather here the past few weeks.
 
Got lucky this Sunday. We have a few days straight of rain starting Sunday afternoon, but I snuck out Sunday morning early. It was upper 40s but the ocean was FLAT which it never is. I got in a 10-mile run to Hull Gut. Most days there's 3 to 4-footers that could sink the dink.

Normally on a weekend morning you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a fisherman, but there was hardly anyone out. I guess this year more than prior years, it was all about jumping on the opportunity when the window opens.
 
But yes -- weather lately is total garbage.

Plus you can't plan more than a half day in advance with these forecasts :eek:
 
It’s been shit up here. Constant wet. Guess we getting more New England weather than Virginia weather. This better change before winter.
Dam bar tab is rolling up.

I'm a little bit North of you, but it's been a really nice Fall so far with only occasional rain. A couple weeks ago I was in Maine for about 5 days and it was gorgeous.

But like Phil said, pretty hard to plan when the forecast seems to change so rapidly.
 
Where were you Saturday? It was perfect weather on the upper bay.
Saturday and Sunday is reserved for wife time. She says I have all week for me, and she just not into boat activities this time of year. I asked her Saturday morning if she wanted to help me bottom paint. She said no I have all week.
She wants to retire end of 2023. We will either be on a show on the ID channel or divorced. I don’t know how we going to be together 24/7.
I may have to go to VA to work on MrsRob boat from time to time.
 
Had drinks with a buddy Friday, him and the Mrs. both are self employed, spend almost 24/7 together in the house. She is gone for a week. He is mess, can't even tie his own shoe now :)
 
Fall weather in the Toronto area has been beautiful (touch wood). Very little rain so far and temps supposed to stay above 50 well into November. Last few days have been around 65 to 68 and sunny with very little wind.
 
I swear to god! We are together all weekend. It’s non stop critical of how I drive, my farts stink, tv too loud. Etc. By Sunday night I want to kill her. it’s gonna be ugly when she retires. I got my freedom for first time since I was a kid, when she retires I will have to get a job again just to get away. Happened to my father and uncle. When the wives retire their whole focus is YOU. And YOU will lose.
Oh so this weekend she buys a new painting. I said casually what is that for. It’s for the wal in the sun room. Oh, the wall that I prop up the zodiac against every winter for the last 2 years? Ya that wall, find a new place for the zodiac.
