The advanced forecast for next weekend is some what up in the air (Ha Ha, a little meteorological humor there...). One model shows a front coming through late next week and wimping out just off the coast, resulting in cool intermittent rain (think Seattle). The other model depicts the front being much more manly and pushing far off the coast and giving us clear, cool (64/43) conditions. The tie breaker is leaning towards the latter solution (Yea!), but we'll have to wait for the BCS results to be released on Sunday evening to be sure.

It could also be affected by the amount of hot air coming out of OK this weekend.

I won't be driving it (it filled while I was on honeymoon, very bad planning on my part...), but I'll be there for a meeting with LSR (Club Race planning stuff). I'll peruse the paddock and say hi to all you grubbions.

Here's the last sentence (after some discussion of model divergence) of the official update from the NWS: NEXT WEEKEND LOOKS NICE WITH DRY CONDITIONS AND MILD TEMPERATURES.

I guess that I should have mentioned the previous sentence: WITH THE GFS SHOWING ONLY A 30% CHANCE OF A HURRICANE.

Just found out that Jim Buckley will be there instructing. Try and catch a ride with him in his E car.
