Are we still on for this ride? NWS has the forecast at 40% chance of rain - mainly before 1PM. Who will make the call and when?

my fingers are crossed....

Posted up in the ride forum (http://www.more-mtb.org/forum/showthread.php?p=169579#post169579) this morning.

Saw this (http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=20874&hourly=1&yday=314&weekday=Wednesday).

Bob - since you are closer to the park can you post up on the ride forum early to let us know if the rain came during the night? Since it's 60-50% chance, we'll have to call it in the morning.

Thanks.

Well it wasn't raining at 1:00am - but it's been raining moderately hard and steady since before I got up at 6:00am.

The hole they dug out for my new driveway is currently NOT filled with water - but unless it stops very soon I can't see the ride going. :nono:

NWS radar shows as much as 2.5 inches of rain falling around Charlottesville and long range radar does not give any real hope of a break for several hours at least. :bangshead:

I hate to do this, but the weather is forcing my hand. Today's rides are canceled. Everyone enjoy your day off.
