Started threatening to rain w/thunder around 3 pm. By 4 o'clock the bottom fell out. Vicious storm and heavy downpour. I had been invited to friend's house for cookout but, it got cancelled. I shared the appetizer I was preparing with neighbors.
Anyone else get their plans spoiled by (much needed) rain?

I'm feeling your pain. i had 2 racks of spare ribs trimmed up last night, but looked at the weather and decided i didn't want to deal with it, problem is, looks like afternoon rain tomorrow and wed as well. Trying to decide if i want to wait till then to cook.
 
Big, banging flashy T-storm hit my house just as I needed to do the burgers at 5:30. So, put the lid back on the Performer with the vents almost totally closed and went back in the house for a drink. Took it about an hour to blow over. Pulled the lid off and had plenty of nice hot coals left. Burgers tasted better because we were all hungrier.
