You've framed this all wrong.

See, I too care about the weather a bit too much. I paid twenty dollars for this weather app on my phone and considered it a steal: http://radarscope.tv/products/

But why did I do this and why do I care? Is it because I'm old? Fuck no. I need the absolute highest resolution, up to date, and comprehensive weather information at my fingertips because I ride a motherfuckin motorcycle. Fast. Every drop of rain on the road could mean the difference between life and death the way I roll. Every driver squinting towards me into the sun as they turn right onto the road in front of me heading East at dusk is a potentially blind slab of steel dropping itself into my path. Every sudden dip in the temperature could mean the difference between making it home and getting stranded.

I love weather because I live on the edge.

Don't you own a motorcycle? You could totally use this reason too.

Full disclosure, I ride a Harley so I don't really live on the edge at all. They are so slow. Sucks to get rained on though. That part is true at least.
