Truck99 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 The local stations have been bumping up the chances a little each day. Let's hope that trend does not continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwinn12x Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Im guessing the dreaded "R" word is so expected that this weekends schedule isn't even going to get posted. ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCloser Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Accuweather also says we are only going to get 0.04" during the day and 0.18" during the night. I think we are going to be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miniholmes1117 Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Accuweather is now showing 86% with some heavy showers for saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 What is forecast is a stretch of what;s called "overrun." It's that misty, damp, drizzly cool/cold weather pattern that Central Texas is so famous for during some stretches in the late fall and winter. Here's the explanation as I understand it.... The surface temperature is fairly low (50s-60s, low 70s), but there is a large amount of warmer, moisture-laden Gulf air flowing over the top of the cool air below. That combination usually produces mist, drizzle and/or light showers, not necessarily in that order, but more or less constantly as long as that weather pattern hangs around. So, unless things change between now and race day, we can anticipate a damp or even wet conditions most of the day and evening. Disclaimer: I am not a meteorologist and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn last night.. LOL Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Nick basically said a good chance it will be wet, but maybe not much. Think he has this weather thing figured out lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 As the Race Director for the Lone Star Legacy Series, I sure hope it stays dry and we can get this one in the books. And I'm sure everyone involved feels the same way. It's always tough to outguess the weather - practically impossible. If we don't call it off and it's too wet to race, we're idiots. If we do call it off and it's dry, we're idiots. If' you don't call it off and it's dry, we're geniuses. If we do call it off and it's wet, we're geniuses. The worst case scenario is when it's iffy a couple of days before the event - just like right now. Who knows for sure what sort of weather Saturday will bring. But from the track's point of view, the chances are good that some red ink will be at the bottom of the spreadsheet once the numbers are run no matter whether we outguess the weather or not... I hate it, but I've seen this scenario many times at different tracks where I have had some sort of administrative role. I vote that the track rents a huge tent before Saturday - big enough to cover the whole track including the racing surface, the grandstands, the concession areas, the pits and the parking areas before Saturday. That should solve everything. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwinn12x Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Nick your a GENIUS. Can they put a Margarita machine a little closer to the grand stands also, lol... My new grand daughter is in S.A. and we'll get to go visit her either way (with a car attached or not) so im just gonna sit back and watch the updates until a decision is made.
