Washing your bike leads to bad weather

Ok, looked the bike over today and it had 10 layers of bugs across the front end. Decided to wash the girl. About 3 hours later we had a massive wind storm roll thru. Wind gusts were over 70 and probably over 80 for 15 to 20 minutes. At one time I would have sworn it was a tornado.

This was the third time to wash the bike this year. The first time a hail storm that afternoon. The next time a hail storm the next morning. Is this coincidence????? I think the old girl will go dirty the rest of the year. If this streak keeps up the next time might just be a tornado. ::)
