Get an IFR ticket. Thunderstorms and icing will stop you but not
too much else. That goes for you too Jay. ;-)

If you eliminate T-storms and icing, you've eliminated 90% of IFR conditions
in the Midwest.

An IR will help on that last 10%, but he needs to get a more capable plane
if he really needs to get somewhere at a certain time, 100% of the time.
