I think this is an interesting and thought provoking analogy. The one part I see as missing is that one may learn something from the experience. If one learns the lesson, the storm intensity changes direction or intensity to something lesser, a new desired lesson. Failure to learn the lesson makes the next time "out in the cold" more intense.
I say this from personal experience,
