Random anecdote - years ago there was a hurricane heading in our general direction but not a direct hit. There was also a big UFC event that my partner wanted to watch. A friend invited him to a local sports bar to watch it, but I asked him to please stay home because the weather was still shit.

So he did and I found it on the high seas, problem solved.

The friend went to the sports bar and got stranded when the parking lot flooded pretty badly and his car was ruined.
