It's calling for 90% chance of rain ALL DAY.

The rain is supposed to start at 4pm today and continue through Sunday.

That will make it a bad idea for parking in my grass. Did Justin already buy a plane ticket? If not I'd be OK with rescheduling if everyone wants to.

If you all want to come in the rain, I'll still go for it.

Let me know what we should do.

The forecast for next Saturday is beautiful. I don't know how difficult it is for everyone to reschedule for next week, especially iwrock.

I'd appreciate if everyone would please respond with their preference.

If we reschedule, we may want to consider going to Saturday 10/11.

Here's the 10 day forecast:
http://www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/ski/tenday/19454?from=36hr_topnav_ski

Rain all next week too ending sometime on Friday, which would probably leave everything soggy for Saturday 10/4.

I'm pretty bummed right now.

If we want to keep it for this week, we can still grill. I can open up the garage doors so we can set up our chairs in there out of the rain and we can do our best to park in my driveway. My house isn't huge, but I think we could all fit in there too.

The rain will make it tough to check out each other's cars, but we can still meet each other and chat.

It's all up to you guys, since you are the ones driving from everywhere.

I am busy on the 4th but am pretty sure I am free on the 11th. My preference would be to do it in better weather.

There's a difference?

Oh, you haven't been to one of OUR GTGs before, have you?!

I am watching the thread, so if you do postpone you will not have to worry about me showing up unexpectedly. Just post what you want to do. BTW - I have a portable 10' x 10' cover I can bring.

Would everyone be bummed having a GTG in the rain?

I'd still like to meet everyone. We can all hope that the forecast is wrong too. Dee8go has to be there and if he's booked all though October, that pushes this thing off too far.

"Next Saturday" being the 27th or Oct. 4th?

How about the 11th Mistress? How about you pwogaman?

RML is tied up on the 4th.

Looks like Dee8go won't be making it. I guess Justin is out.


What's everyone's opinion on this???

Is a rain date of October 11th acceptable? or do we push this thing into November??? This sucks.

I'm beginning to suspect it's not really about the cars . . .
