Anybody take a look at the salt lately?  The weather-station says it rained yesterday and maybe sprinkled this AM.  Now sunny for the next week :-) :-) :-)

Current Report:

Water is receding and salt conditions are expected to be good for the event!

Just in case you haven't heard what the USFRA is doing and planning:

USFRA officials plan to head out to the salt this weekend for their in-person assessment of the situation.  They'll report to all either Saturday or Sunday and give us their educated guess (a/k/a EWAG) on the likelihood of the surface being read for racing at woS.  I don't know the BMST plans - if they're going out there for the in-person visit, so can't comment on it, other than to say that if they're not sending someone they might try to get some good scoop from USFRA.  Best wishes to the BMST - and later, to the USFRA.
