Leah Waddell works as an on-air weather girl for a local television station in Conway, although she aspires to do real forecasting work for or with the station's chief meteorologist Chris, who believes she needs more experience before he will permit her to transition into that area. In addition to signs showing her that her dating life has stalled, Leah makes the threefold decision to: move out of her parents' house; stop dating for a year; and focus that year on her professional life, which includes completing her degree in meteorology and honing her knowledge on the science of weather forecasting. As soon as she makes that decision, men seem to be coming out of the woodwork, they not there before, wanting to date her. She ends up moving next door to Mark Crawford, who too is embarking on his own one year plan: having grown up on and just moved from his father's dairy farm, he, having gotten a consulting job with a dairy, is giving city life a try, his heart up to this point of his life on the farm. Leah and Mark end up making a connection as he tries to get her brain partly out of the science to take cues from nature to forecast weather, as he has done all his life. Especially as she has this one year no dating plan, their relationship, unspoken but known between the two, is purely platonic. As romantic unspoken feelings start to develop on both sides, they may miss the opportunity to make that connection fully as among other things Mark has to make the decision if he will return back to the farm at the end of the year, and as a former girlfriend, Rochelle Crosby, reenters his life.
