Sparky-(Admin) 25,636 #1 Posted Thursday at 04:31 PM Seeing rain in the forecast for Thursday/Friday/Saturday but right now it appears it’s at night or evening. That’s all good for me as I’ll be sleeping in my hotel room. I’m sure there are better weather apps than the cheesy one that came installed on my phone. What are you all seeing?

rmaynard 17,273 #2 Posted Thursday at 04:34 PM My WeatherBug forecast says 30% chance. That means 70% chance of no rain. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 47,002 #4 Posted Thursday at 04:49 PM The weather forecast will change 20 times before Thurs. Not really any point of even checking. The only thing I'm watching is where are the remnants of that tropical storm headed. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was in the A Z barn and saw the storm clouds coming. I got back just in time to take control of the ship! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brockport Bill 2,389 #12 Posted Friday at 03:07 AM I suppose most are actually trained and went to school for metrology but should we assume mostly there isn't much human scientific weather analysis actually done....but likely most forecasting is done by computers? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kthack657 329 #13 Posted Friday at 11:19 AM Well my weather app is saying only possibility of rain on Thursday, the other days are partly sunny and highs in the low 80's keeping my fingers 🤞 that this one holds...every year seems to be hot, rainy or both...

rmaynard 17,273 #14 Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Looks like things are changing a bit. Thursday looks good and Friday & Saturday are only threats of storms. Nothing new for South Mountain Fairgrounds. Edited 5 hours ago by rmaynard 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
