Showerthought: People keep booking cheap flights to Bali without checking the rainy season

I watched three separate nomads in my Chiang Mai co-working space last November complain about constant downpours and washed-out wifi after they'd flown in on a $400 deal. They all said they 'assumed it was always sunny' and didn't look at a single weather chart before committing to a six-week stay. How do you plan your moves around climate without it becoming a full-time research job?

But how much research do you really need? It's just weather.

Check a single weather chart.

Guess I should've checked more than just looking out my window, huh? I mean, my track record with weather predictions is basically me guessing if it's gonna rain based on how wet my socks are. Idk, maybe I need to step up my research game from "vibes-based meteorology.
