Giggity, good for you. Question is: why were you up in such a day in a 152?

Going up is optional. Coming down is mandatory.Sometimes conditions change.

If you were actually a pilot, you would know that sometimes "forecast" and "actual" are different.

“Question is: why were you up in such a day in a 152?”

Why wouldn’t I be? It is within my personal minimums and is a common day here in Colorado where the winds blow pretty much every day. If you can’t do crosswind landings you can’t fly Colorado. We’re only out of options when we reach control limits, and we fly 15kt crosswinds fairly often, nearly every week.
