Dream weather

[golddirt]

Here we go again, always seems to be possible weather issues this time of year. Back up to 80% on Friday and still 40 on Saturday

[ThebigE]

Won't be a complete washout if it does rain. It's just going to be very hot and humid so they almost always call for storms when it's this humid and hot.

[golddirt]

As usual it has already changed,50/50. Typical

[GEAR_HEAD]

It's impossible to predict weather so there's no sense in looking at any forecasts.

[zyoung25]

Someone jinxed us on here by saying the weather looked excellent last week. I dont remember who it was though.

[dirt crow]

D Suave said perfect weather. He’s never wrong. Lol

Weather people are going to throw out the worst case scenario.

The only reason there's weather forecasts is to get viewers on news channels and clicks on weather websites. It's all about money. People can just as easily create their own weather forecasts by looking at the radar. The radar is the only thing that doesn't lie.

I think the weather deal has became a bigger racket (sp?)... I mean today they are showing a high of 24% chance of rain. But there icon for weather indicator is rain. It didn't used to be like this... but rain is a bigger draw than sun because people click trying to figure when it's going to rain and for how long... there's no rain...
Or just an incidental chance.

Better sleep when u can we might have a couple late nights ahead of us.

So true. One station in my town had a promo 2 days ago with their weatheman asking when the next chances of rain are, watch at 11. No rain was predicted for another 3 days. Instead of focusing on the great weather we've been having, they had to play up something several days away. All about the $$$.

Yep I look at the radar the day of a race and watch it periodically through the day. Thats why ive been vocal about Promoters cancelling 3-4 days early because of a forcast, 80% of the time it doesnt rain that day or if it does very little. And even if it says 80% percent chance of rain doesnt mean all day rain, that could be a 3 minute pop up storm...

[Illtsate32]

Plus its hot enough the ground will dry out very quickly and will be back to racing in no time...

[Illtsate32]

Storms are blowing up northwest of the track

[Clayton_Wetter]

Yes, not looking good. The storm just south of the track is going to miss though.

Water Wetter, water!

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

It has been pouring here at the Big E.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

It has been pouring here at the Big E.Looking at the radar man, not looking good.

[Illtsate32]

If that big cell can skirt by off to the west they might be ok, if that hits them they are a done bun...

[dirtyboy]

The big cell hit us. Waiting it out

[Clayton_Wetter]

Be a good time for some belly flopping like the good ole days. Some pot bellied guy would slide on his stomach from the track entrance in turn three all the way down to the bottom.

Always wondered what would happen if there was a piece of something sharp stuck in the track. hahahaha

[george w]

The big cell hit us. Waiting it out that ol just enough to hit your wipers every 2mins is what's frustrating, I think after 70 cars the track is somewhat "ironed in"? Mabe it will roll off the turns? I'm optimistic in the worst of conditions though

[jbinlincoln]

Worst is over. there's a window of time to try & get it rolled in & maybe get started by Midnight. There's another line of rain to the west/northwest a few counties over, and it's not clear whether it will make it to the track intact, or pass just to the south.

Roll it in, boys.

[george w]

Roll it in a blow it off gents!!!!, there scraping rd 1 of time trials right ?

They did state that a little earlier. 1 lap on the re-do.

[Centeroff]

Weather has the same odds as Bloomquist. 3/2 favorite and I might just have to bet with the rain. My forecast shows rain until 2am at 50-70%

[Illtsate32]

Radar doesnt show that tho CO, they do seem to keep popping up out of nowhere tho...

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Really, offcenter those are your favorite odds but not everybodys elses

[MI Dirt Fan]

Go back to bed your drunk on koolaid

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Go back to bed your drunk on koolaid

Im like you i dont get out of bed! Thanks for caring!

[Centeroff]

SS, you never amaze me. Haven’t heard a peep from you in weeks and your first comment is my favorite odds are for it to rain out. I really do have the keys to your brain. The only thing that works slower than your brain is the 39 and 49s qualifying time ya moron. On the other hand, you are still my guy lol

[george w]

It's steady an slow, but hasn't slowed down.... Not looking good imo

[Chris Thomason]

Looks like a full on rain again...

[Chris Thomason]

They are calling it now

[Centeroff]

Someone let SS know that those 3/2 odds will pay off twice this weekend

[Mindwalker]

SS will have to sell his sheep to pay his debt 😄

[Centeroff]

He isn’t selling those sheep. They have a special bond if you get my drift?

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Clean your pm box please

[Cardirt0]

Clean your pm box please

You should leave there wifes out of this lol

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Were bonding!

[Mindwalker]

Might be early Tuesday morning befor they get this one in but they will squeeze it in somewhere 😀
