Rain

Yah I see you guys have an 80% chance of rain tomorrow, with 1 to 2 inches possible. We were going to drive over from Milwaukee, but with a chance like that we might just skip it. I guess we won't know for sure until the morning. If you guys could post an update really early, like as in 6 or 7AM of what your weather looks like tomorrow that would be great, we will check in here before making a decision I'm sure.

You fly RC helicopters? Can I have a ride?

I'll post something out here.
I can understand you long haul people.

Sunday looks to be dry right now, Saturday maybe wet, how wet, there is conflicting reports. I will post the morning local forecast around 6 - 6:30 a.m.

Plenty of brats and burgers for midwest to grill for us.

Bring your MotoX out Bundy, the dirt pile by the parking has been taken over by ATVs.

I'll have the phone on starting at around 6:30.

Here's the latest Weather.com forecast for:

Saturday, periods of rain. Some rain may be heavy. High of 73, winds SSW 10 - 20.


Sunday, overcast with rain showers at times. NW 10 - 20. 60% chance.


We will be there because there's food, drink and music. We'll fly at every chance there is and make the best of it. Some years go like this, some are more perfect like last year. There may be some nitro trucks splashing thru the mud instead.

Will give an update later tonight.

Hope you guys get some periods of no rain so you can get some flights in. I know what its like to invest into a funfly and have it get rained on. Its a scarey thought! Hope it works out well. Us Wisconsin guys are stayin home today, maybe tomorrow will be better...

You fly RC helicopters? Can I have a ride?

This is always one of my favorite. It's a shame the weather is so rotten. Maybe we can get together another weekend before winter.

Hmmmmmmm.....well that was an interesting first day for the fun fly wasn't it now? Food was good, conversation lively, rain heavy.

We are still optimistic for some periods of no rain Sunday and a few more locals will be checking in with us.

Gotta love the Midwest!

My yard is a lake and if my sump pump quits I'm going to have a new indoor in-ground pool.
