Isabel

Raven just cancelled their Friday track day at Shannonville because of Hurricane Isabel after discussion with the track management. What's the forecast for Sat/Sun?

from what I understand it's very difficult to predict the movements of a hurricane and of course we all know how difficult it is to predict the weather in general. That being said, the projected course of Isabel is pretty much right over Belleville/SMP as you can see from these maps...

HOWEVER, it looks like the worse of it will be on Friday while both Saturday and Sunday may actually be surprisingly dry if The Weather Network's forecast is anything near accurate...

Anyway, it's really tough to say what'll happen but with any luck it seems like we may have an OK weekend despite Isabel's best efforts.
