That phrase totally doesn't apply here. Since I'm talking about flying, and rain and snow, sleet, as well as dark of night (for now) means that I can't fly.

Today was supposed to be my big day as a pilot. It was supposed to be the first time that I flew without an instructor in the plane. _Supposed_ to. But of course, the DCA (Department of Civil Aviation) here in Cyprus hasn't issued my license yet (it's been in for about 5 weeks now, and they said they would do it on Monday), so alas, I could not solo. Oh well, next week.
