Nuisance Weekend Rain

FRIDAY LATE AFTERNOON – EARLY EVENING

SATURDAY AFTERNOON TO SUNDAY AFTERNOON

  • Light & medium-intensity rain
  • ETA mid/late Sat afternoon (phrase is intentionally vague!)
  • Off and on for 24 hrs or so
  • Most likely raining: Saturday night
  • Not concerned about lightning or severe weather

The problem: I’m not sure when it will stop. Most of the rain should be gone by Sunday mid-morning, but for the rest of Sunday we could get a stray shower. Poncho up, fans. Tailgates need tents! read more
