Early Weather Outlook

Frayed Knot Mar 30 2006 10:55 AM

Monday: low/mid 50s, partly cloudy & breezy* * I hate that word. I think TV stations and such don't want to be seen as bearers of bad news so they use that word because it doesn't sound as bad as 'windy'. Most places need a near hurricane before they'll concede to using 'windy' even though I've been near knocked down by 'breezy'.

Current forcast shows maybe some light rain for Monday ... although more for later in the day than early. Still around mid-50s, no longer any mention of "breezy"

Aww geez, maybe I shoulda put my 6-pack in the dry Mezz Reserved again instead of springing for the front row Upper Box... Of course the last time I did Upper Box, they went to the WS.

Hopefully they'll get started promptly: ]Monday: Periods of showers, mainly after 2pm. High around 55. East wind between 8 and 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible.

I might be driving home from Scarlett's in the snow... Monday Night: Periods of rain showers before 1am, then a slight chance of snow showers. Some thunder is also possible. Low around 39. South wind 10 to 17 mph becoming west. Chance of precipitation is 90%.

Forecast is looking much better this morning: ]Today: Showers likely, mainly after 5pm. Increasing clouds, with a high around 58. East wind between 6 and 16 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. If the rain holds off until 5 we should be fine. For those who will be attending, the 58 doesn't sound too bad either. I just hope there's not too much wind.

Which leads me to a question. What was the longest rain delay you ever sat through? Later

="MFS62"]Which leads me to a question. What was the longest rain delay you ever sat through? Later Sat through a few 3 hour rain delays. Looking at "Sheadar", I'm a bit more pessimistic. The start of this game will be delayed for about an hour or two, but then they will have a window to play it in its entirety.
