As this is October, I was put in mind of the fall and getting into the holiday swing, starting with Halloween and all that it brings. My kids are now grown, and one even has a child of his own, but I still like to see the familiar little trick or treaters from the neighborhood that come to the house holding open their candy bags, with smiling little faces expecting a handful of goodies. For the last few years, the weather has been good, so the turnout has been getting better again. We\u2019ll see this year\u2014the prediction calls for a season full of rain. This is great for the greenery and other growing things, but not good for the little ones!<\/p>\n
I guess bad weather has been on my mind lately, after I saw, in a TV news report during one of the recent major storms up in northern California, a restored 1970s Chevelle that the owner probably thought was safely tucked away in its garage was instead covered with snow, mud, and other debris. The weather caused a mud flow that was several feet deep; it ripped through the hilly neighborhood. It tore the door from the garage and then half submerged the car inside. I can only hope the owner had some kind of classic car insurance covering that kind of vehicle damage and structure destruction. <\/p>\n
Most owners never expect weather like we\u2019ve been having out here, so they don\u2019t carry that kind of car insurance. So far, I\u2019ve been lucky\u2014the really bad storms haven\u2019t come our way. My home is on high ground, so the water and other debris flows down the side street next to my house and never gets to my driveway. It\u2019s still scary, as we still have a lot of winter to get through.<\/p>\n

There is a lesson to be learned here: When these sorts of unforeseen events happen, someone will obviously have to pay for things to be repaired, and since most insurance policies don\u2019t pay for this kind of damage unless it is specifically agreed upon, it\u2019s an excellent idea to review your policies now to make sure you\u2019re covered. I have always felt that my car was safe in the garage, but obviously that isn\u2019t always the case. We can\u2019t control Mother Nature\u2019s tantrums!<\/p>\n
Bad weather doesn\u2019t bode well for automotive events, either. I just received an entry form for a yearly car show here in my little town. There is a large hot rod car club in the area, and they sponsor and run a show every year on our main street. It is open to restorations, classics, street rods, home builds, and antiques\u2014just about anything one can imagine and build. It is a fun show to attend, with or without a show car. Hopefully, the rain will stay away, and they will be able to pull it off without any problems. It\u2019s hard enough to organize, promote, and manage a large show full of all years, makes, and models of collector and performance cars without having the weather cause major problems. I\u2019ll keep my fingers crossed and enter my \u201965 GTO anyway.<\/p>\n
Obviously, weather plays a large part in the success or failure of an outdoor car show. Normally, starting in spring and running into early winter, we have dependably good weather, but this past year has been an exception. We\u2019ve had everything from dense fog to torrential rains. Regardless, almost every show has had reasonably clear skies and a satisfactory turnout of entrants. <\/p>\n
Whenever an event has to be cancelled at the last minute due to uncooperative weather, I feel badly for the organizers. I think folks who have never been involved with putting one of these gatherings together have no idea the amount of time and effort it takes to successfully pull off a large show. It takes weeks of behind-the-scenes planning, arrangements for entertainment, contracting with food vendors, printing and distributing information flyers, acquiring city permits for the street closure, and so on, all to provide nourishment and entertainment for a large number of participants, entrants, and casual attendees. It\u2019s like a full-time job for a month or so prior to the event. You must be prepared to work hard with your club members for several weeks. Of course, the only thing that they can\u2019t control is the weather!<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll keep my fingers crossed for them and, hopefully, we\u2019ll be able to dodge the clouds and have some successful and enjoyable events for the remainder of this season. <\/p>\n\n
