I haven't looked into the matter, but from what I hear, weather does have an effect on turnout. Granted, in the uncompetitive races, it's not a huge impact, but in the close races, it could be interesting to know a bit on the weather for Tuesday.
Granted, weather forecasts, like polls, are prone to errors.

While also either expressing glee, or declaring that it's all over due to rain in the wrong place.
Yeah, Kansas City's gonna have a good election day, barring any 72 hour changes there (which are plausible in Missouri).
