Meteorology is a science? It's not even a well-defined ART!

Agreed! I spent 2 hours washing the outside of MINI on Sunday just to have it rained & hailed on Monday afternoon (weather forecast said light rain Mon. night into Tues. morning, which I could have avoided with strategically timed commuting).

Oh well, she'll need another bath after the drive to Sin City anyway.
See you all Thursday afternoon!

I probably wouldn't have gotten around to washing Malibu Stacy anyway, but at least now I have an excuse. This weather simply won't allow for clean MINIs!

Well, current forecast is looking pretty good. High 70s for the weekend. Let's hope they're right.

Swifty's flat-tire alarm went off hours ago. Another tire that was patched was low. But then I looked on another and crap! Now Khumo non-run-flats are on. Guess that means no gambling....

Bummer. Better to deal with it before hitting the road though.

I lucked out... closest tire dealer had 4 Khumos, no worries. Goes thru the snow much better than near bald Peerailyees.
I am willing to volunteer for track marshaling the Phil Wicks thing, he PMed me about it.

Well

the whole family has viral bronchitis, and the trip is now up in the air. I'm the worst off, but my wife has been hit pretty hard as well. Don't know if we'll recover in time to go..... Boo hoo hoo!
