    I don't even give them credit for the SAME day. Never even called for rain the entire day yesterday and we got rained on at least 5 times, 2 of them were moderately heavy. Then they changed the forecast after the rains for PM showers after 9PM and we never got another drop.

    What does it take to become a Meteorologist?

    A winning box of Captain Crunch?

    too bad

    it looks like the rain spoiled this one, but I am opened to ideas and if you guys would like to re-eschedule I would be more that willing to participate.

    Is there a back-up-plan in case we're rained out? I know if there is any chance of rain I won't be attending.:Do No:

    I drive my car rain or shine, cars are built to be driven in any weather, right?

    I don't blame those that have decent paint jobs, its just my opinion... even WITH a leaky windshield.

    I'm up for it now, reschedualing it might be iffy for my ability to go as my job will limit me to when I can attend (its a pool store, as soon as it gets semi-nice up here then we will be slammed).

    Looking at the current weather reports -

    Accuweather.com - Mostly cloudy; a few showers
    High 71 F / Low 61 F

    Weather.com - Scattered T-Storms 73/59 30 % rain.

    There is no back-up plan at this moment. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd hate to take my daily driver Camry to a Buick event :ball:

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!


    Lets make it Rain or Shine ??

    Scattered tT-storms or chance of rain is as good as it gets in my book unless you see a HUGE "H" cloudless high pressure area over the entire region

    Weathermans' catchall phrase - Partly cloudy with a chance of rain:rolleyes:

    If ist sunny they're right.....if its cloudy they're right, if it doesn't rain they're right......and if it downpours ?? We told you here first

    This past sat I was to compete in a model airplane fly-in - every forecast called for the weather to hold from dawn until 10a when it was to degrade rapidy. I got there extra early (6:30a) got my flights in and ended up staying at the flying field until 2p because it was such a nice day - didn't rain until after 4p

    I May go out Fri night to my in-laws....or leave Sat. early. Either way If its raining then and forecasted to continue, Im bringing the Skylark. If its nice I'll be the guy with the Top Down and Shades on......Goin' Fast with Crass...errr....I Mean Class

    Hi Lynn and Paul -

    (Weather permitting, of course), I'd get on the Garden State Parkway north bound, to exit 114. It will be quicker.

    Make a left at the first light (Holmdel/Middletown road). You will go over the GSP at this point and go through the first light. The 2nd light is Crawford's Corner-Everette Rd. Make a right and follow the directions from This V8Buick post.

    The hotel should definitely be able to get you on the GSP northbound.

    Here are directions from Yahoo, mapping to 12 Linden CT. Seems like mapping to 2 Linden Ct gives an entirely different set of directions :Do No:
