The forecast is still showing an 80% chance of rain for Saturday. Crap.

Anybody else think meteorologists go to the same school as astrologers?

Boofers.... I haven't met you yet but if you're heading down to the show n' shine you're quite welcome to stop by the house first...

I think that they are more closely aligned with economists who have successfully predicted 11 of the last 2 recessions. :lol:

Hi guys,

Glad to hear all the interest in our Show & Shine. I am looking for a TV or radio station who is NOT calling for rain on 31 May!!

I will post a notice on the Forum here by about 7:30 or 7:45 Saturday morning as to whether or not the S&S will be on. If we do postpone, remember the rain date is a week later, 7 June, same times, same place.

If you don't see a post by 7:45 AM Saturday, assume we're going to give it a try! Hope to see you 31 May.

Here's your morning weather forecast ....

They're now saying 80% chance of rain for tomorrow. Looks like the Hamilton show is going to be a wash-out.

Too bad it couldn't be today. The weather is perfect!

Yup. Every weather channel is saying 80-90% rain. I guess I won't be going. I don't mind driving in the rain much, but it's no fun at the show then... :cry

I can't go next weekend either, company golf.... :cry

Isn't the Wilson Niblette show next weekend? :confused:

Weather for tomorrow is almost certainly a wash out and I can't make next weekend due to "kid" committments. Rats!

I was holding out but with 1 day to go, they expect rain throughout the day. It will be miserable and I'm bowing out and won't go. See you next week Sunday at Hillfest......
