While the above statement really doesn't mean anything, it reminds me of a joke my dad always made when Thursday rolled around and someone asked, "What day is it?"
"Thursday. All day unless it rains."
My first recollection of this was when I was about three years old. Of course I had to have it explained.
Thursday, if slurred a bit, sounds like thirsty. Therefore the day will be a thirsty one unless we get some moisture.
By the calendar it's Thursday, but based on the amount of snow we have on the ground and still falling, it won't be a thirsty one for quite some time.

I can just hear your dad saying that! Thanks for the smile!
My pleasure, BL.
Egad!! So much white stuff, but with global warming I keep trying to tell myself that these winter will be precious some day.
Leah, it sounds like your father had a wonderful sense of humor.
Tabor, it could happen.
Messymimi, he did.
Your dad sounds like he was a little like my dad who would say "Thirsty? You're thirsty? How could you be thirsty when today is Friday?"
Hilary, LOL, they would have made a great two-part joke.
