Yesterday we discovered that there are numerous songs about the weather and thanks so much for those who came up with so many singles and albums to add to our compilation but how many movies have weather terms or are based on the weather?
We don’t think there are as many or are there?
We’ve only come up with a select few but feel free to add to the list…
Gone with the wind
Twister
The Perfect Storm
The Weather Man
The Ice Man
An Inconvenient Truth
Singin’ in the Rain

It’s not out yet, but Sean Casey (from Discovery Channel’s “Storm Chasers”) has been making an Imax movie called Tornado Alley for the last several years, in which he documents actually intercepting a tornado. I’m really looking forward to it. I think it’s due for release next month.
