I've been closely watching this as well....

Just yesterday there was call for showers both days....and now things begin to improve. 

I am certain we can all manifest the perfect weather for opening weekend!   :)

Absolutely. If last year is any indication, the predictions are worthless, just show up and see what the weather is, then give it 10 minutes and it'll change!



PS: I'm lamenating my writs of excommunication....lol!

I was wondering if we should pack our cloaks or not.....is it not doubtful that the temperatures would drop so significantly?

We made opening weekend last year before my departure to the Outremer, and it was quite windy and cold the first day. The Princess wasn't prepared for it.


I would say bring them, better to have and not need, then to need and not have...

Weather around here is changing hourly the past few weeks.  I know oneday last week I went to lunch with it snowing but I needed short sleeves by the time I left for the day, so there's really no telling what its gonna be like. My group will definately be packing cloaks in the car just to be sure.

Keep in mind, a couple years ago, it flurried opening weekend. If your coming, might as well be prepared.

It's well-established that once GARF has arrived, if it's going to rain only one or two days out of an entire week at all... it's a 99.9% chance that it will be on the weekend.
After GARF is over...then the rain will relax it's schedule. It's infuriating.

If it rains I will spend the day in the pub.

Water proof cloak for me. Treated with a spray on DWR coating. Probably should have re sprayed it since its just been collecting dust since october but it'll work for all but the heaviest down pour.
