Default Worst weather you've been in

What's the worst camping weather you've ever been in? There was one night when it started to hail and then it started snowing but it was still fun. We played cards in the tent. The tough part was figuring out how to go pee when it was awful outside. LOL

I have been caught in a few summer thunderstorms at night. So loud your ears would ring, so super windy thought we would wake up in the next campsite, and so much rain we thought we had a water bed. Ah memories.

My girlfriend and I camped through Hurricane Ike when it came through. We live in SW Louisiana. It was pretty crazy. Lots of wind. Lots of rain. And my dog enjoyed every minute of it.

The worst I remember wasn't actually that bad, but it was horrible extremes over two days. Day one, we were hiking in hail and snow, with temperatures only reaching a high of 38. The following day was in the high 60s and the sun was beating down on us. You just can't pack for a weekend like that!
