Same here. Ya go to bed on a Saturday night, with only a 20% chance of rain forecasted for your Sunday ride... get up, and *poof* it's up to 50%... dammit!! But you don't want to cancel till the veerrrrrryyy last minute, so you get ready as planned, and keep checking it like every 15 minutes to see if it's changed (and more often than not, it does )

I check it in the morning. I check it between work and school. I check it when I get home and I check it before bed.
One reason is I work outdoors and it stucks standing in the road for hours and hours when it's 20degrees outside. (Mad props to the 5riders I saw that day sporting the 20degree weather) But tommorow/today(Friday) it's going to be a high of 64degrees in Atlanta. So the motorcycle is coming out. I've ridden in freezing cold temps (lowest so far is 16degrees) but going to work and then school makes cold weather riding a PITA. But I have fucking rain on the weekend so there goes my Mountain Biking plans (Or does it??). Atleast our springs will be fuller this year for some great kayaking in the spring.

I prefer intellicast and weatherunderground but yes, I do check it a LOT. Of course as a Captain the weather has a pretty big impact on my day.
