First, let me start by saying that he is not a television meteorologist. He does not stand in front of a green screen and point to little clouds and cartoon sunshines with sunglasses on. (Although there is nothing wrong with that. It's actually super cute.) Anyway, even though he is not on TV, he still knows what time it will start to rain, how much snow we will get and whether or not we will be getting a snow day (Priorities, right?).

Most people find talking about the weather boring. It's what you discuss with someone when the conversation is nonexistent, awkward and going nowhere. However, in the DiRienzo household, it is anything but.

Here are nine things that inevitably happen when your dad is a weatherman.

1. You never forget your umbrella.

2. You will always be dressed for the weather.

3. You know when the first snow will come before everyone else.

4. The night before a big snowstorm, every phone in your house buzzes uncontrollably because all your friends need to know whether or not they should do their homework. #snowday?

5. Your friends get sick of hearing "turn around, don't drown" whenever you see a puddle.

6. Similarly, they are also sick of hearing "when thunder roars, go indoors."

7. You plan sleepovers in the middle of the week because your dad knows you're getting a snow day on Thursday.

Your friends' parents are obviously a little weary, but when it comes down to it, your friends will end up at your house because dad was right, regardless of what this thing ^^ said.

8. You seem really smart in Earth Science class because you already know what an isobar is.

9. Having to shovel your driveway because your dad gets called into work super early in the morning for emergencies during snow storms.

You get really good at acting pathetic while shoveling so the neighbor's plow company will do it for you.
