Default FBF Rain date....

In response to the question brought up by Lexusk8 lastly in the huge FBF thread,

I ask of all of you the following...

The weather isn't looking good for Sunday, they are saying rain the whole weekend...

will we still meet regardless unless it is an extreme downpour or what?

Just want to know what to do, because if it is drizzling I for one am not gonna miss this thing for the world..

Weekend forecast is calling for rain Saturday and scattered thunder storms on Sunday.

Gut instinct is telling me to play it by ear as far as weather goes for Sunday, but what I'm more concerned about is the people like Lexis11 and superpats coming from MA, which is at least a 3 hr drive from the FBF meet. It would really suck for them to drive all the way down to the meet and be hit with a torrential downpour

I would suggest making a final decision Saturday night. That way there is no mistaking whether the meet is on or off....especially for those traveling a good distance.

Yea that ride is about 5 1/2 hours for me and that would not be cool if it was pouring out. I'm really hoping the forecast changes and the rain gets pushed back to like Sunday night Monday morning, beacuse if we have to push this meet back its almost guaranteed I won't be able to make it as I'm booked for like the next month of Sundays. I'll be checking the weather and waiting to hear form ya Jeff. Lata "D"

Yeah Jeff, I distinctly remember that meet, and we don't want to pull the same ***** again for this one. Rain easily makes anyone miserable, and it sure made me feel like it from last year's meet

Unhappy

I'm so F'n bummed this is the 3rd weekend in a row that rain is forcasted for Saturday and Sunday! I'm really starting to doubt that I'll be going Sunday. I just don't know if it's worth it for me to be on the road for a total of about 10 hours because if its not going to be nice out Saturday and/or Sunday morning I'm guessing that most people won't show.
