I know that goes against everything you were ever told, but in today's fragile job market you have to be forward thinking.
Btw, I too almost went into meteorology as I went to a school that has a world-renowned program. If you choose that route, be ready for LOTS of math and physics. Of the people I know that did it though, everyone loved it.
It's important to realize how many aviation opportunities (not piloting, but opportunities within aviation) there are out there, and how many branching specialties there are within those or any industry. Everyone thinks delivery=drivers, airlines=pilots, medical=doctors, insurance=life and automobile, and so on. There are so many opportunities within if you go and search a little.
