Title: Weather Report for Opening Weekend
Post by: Rhiannon on October 03, 2009, 03:14:00 PM
I've been hearing/reading that it's calling for rain for opening weekend at the CRF. I was supposed to be there on that Sunday, the 11th. My situation is that I can only go one day a year. And I would much rather walk around in the cold than in the rain. Has anyone heard any updated weather reports for opening weekend?

I just checked the Weather Channel web site, and for now they're saying partly cloudy and a high of 79 on Saturday, and a 60% chance of showers and a high of 76 on Sunday. Of course that could change over the next week.

No matter the weather, I'll be there happy and tromping along the paths with a cold ale in hand...   ;D

So...the weather on News14 says Saturday, High of 74 with a chance of showers, Low overnight of 57, Sunday showers ending with a high of 66.

But of course this is the same weather forcast as last weekend and it was BEAUTIFUL all weekend.  Let's hope it turns out that way again.  Weathermen are like doctors.  Notice that they call it a practice, not an exact science.

I guess I'll have to bring a plastic bag to wrap my camera in...

So far this year, We went to the Georgia ren faire, it poured, we had a great time.
We went to the New York ren faire, it poured, we had a great time.
We went to the Pennsylvania ren faire, it poured, we had a great time.
Are we going to make it 4 for 4 this weekend?

NOAA's forcast got up to 60% rain likely  Thurs evening, this morning it is 30% and a chance.....

To paraphrase Pharmar Joe  - it doesn't matter,  "we'll have a great time".......

26 hours tick-tock.....
