Don't Judge Your Day By Morning Temperatures!


It is so important to check the weather forecast before you leave home for your daily activities, especially work. Well I didn't do so this past Tuesday and experienced a very challenging day. Traveling home from vacation Monday night into Tuesday morning, it was raining like "cats and dogs". I was picked up at the train station and brought home just to shower and change for a scheduled meeting at 9:00AM. Although the rain subsided, it was still cool and cloudy. So, I dressed for the day according to what I was experiencing at the time. As I was on my way to the meeting, it was as the sun magically appeared and a heat wave began. I was so over dressed for the day, but I had to bear it. I learned my lesson: Don't judge your day by what's going on in the morning in New Jersey!
