weather or not (m)

Thursday.  Snowstorm in the forecast for Friday.  We're supposed to leave at 5 p.m. on Friday to head to Greensboro, North Carolina for the National Championships in ice skating.

Big decision to make.  Do we leave on Thursday, risk H missing a day of school, try to find practice ice down there, go without a coach, extend the hotel reservation,  pack a day earlier, pay the $200 change fee in airplane tickets...etc, etc.  My head is spinning.

I've become expert in reading weather reports on weather.com.  Hourly graphs of temperature, probability of precipitation, weather patterns, flight patterns of our plane (is it coming from the west where the bad weather is coming from or the south, which is clear).

In the midst of this meshugas, my husband and son want to know what's for dinner.

Really?  Really, people?
