The Fair-Weather Washer

 

Fair-weather washer (noun)

[ fair-weth-er-wosh-er ]

: A person who will not visit the car wash until the perfect weather conditions arise.

Used in a sentence: “Have you seen Dave’s Jeep lately? That fair-weather washer won’t take it to JetSplash unless there’s 7 days of sun in the forecast!”


If you or someone you know is a fair-weather washer, hold on to your hubcaps.

A 2022 article in the Lincoln Journal Star reported that Yes, it has recently been windier in Nebraska than it used to be.

The worst part? The authors talked to real-life scientists and found that, well, no one is exactly sure why. According to Gannon Rush, a climatologist at UNL,

“There’s been quite a bit of chatter in the meteorological and climatological community about trying to figure out how much windier this year has been.”

Rush said that a lack of data makes it difficult to understand and predict wind patterns.

You can say that a-gannon.

We’re not climatologists (and we don’t have sweet names like Rush!) but we know one thing for sure:

 

More wind means more dust, dirt, grime and slime on your vehicle — and more often.
