Living in Ohio, this is just a way of life. We change clothes 6 times a day to keep up with the weather here. Seasons are just a suggestion and winter coats regularly pair well with shorts and sandals.
But when you’re traveling, you’re limited on how much you can pack. Even then, the weather changes even once you’ve departed for your destination. Being prepared is vital to a successful vacation. It’s always better to have something and not need it than to need something and not have it.
Even the forecast can steer us wrong sometimes. I cannot count the number of times a client heading to Walt Disney World is surprised when I insist they pack ponchos. “But there’s such a small chance of rain.” I insist and they thank me later. Something as simple as a poncho takes up hardly any space in your suitcase but saves you a ton of money later on and just lets your mind rest as you travel.
