From the title, it sounds like this trope is referring to the phrase It Was A Dark And Stormy Night and it's endless parodies and variations. However, several of the examples are simply referring to dark and stormy nights, without any references to the phrase. The Parent Trap example looks particularly bad. Simply having bad weather sounds too vague and general to trope, and the phrase is referenced so commonly that it's a valid trope by itself. Most of the examples are good, but there are enough bad examples that I thought it might be worth changing the description to clarify this.
Clock is set.
