Along with By Hook or by Crook (1995) and The Witches of Pennbrook (1997), this is one of only three episodes in which Ben Savage (Cory Matthews) and Rider Strong (Shawn Hunter) do not share a scene.
Eric Matthews was born on February 11, 1978.
Eric sarcastically wishes Mr. Feeny a 100th birthday. Willard Scott, a weatherman on the "Today Show", had a habit of sending birthday wishes to viewers who were 100.
The title comes from the 1933 song "Stormy Weather" written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler most famously sung by Lena Horne.
