This weather stuff is giving me a headache.

Tiny, can we keep the October meet weather news in this thread? I saw you reported in the other one to, but with measured "dog bowl" rain stats.

Let us know if the afternoon today and tomm soak up the rain, and the wind blows it dry. (fingers crossed)

1.15 inches of rain this morning so far according to the El Mirage weather station.
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

  Papi...if you clik on the link in the [other post] that Tiny has no control over you can have the updated weather for El Mirage any time you check. And its more accurate than the dog bowl :-)

Looks like the flat-bottomed cars may have an advantage.

From the BLM El Mirage site. It says the lakebed is closed.  :evil:
