CVQuesty Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Oh man... almost forgot about that.That was wild... that rain came out of nowhere and really opened up on you guys. I think at least one other corps (Kilties? I don't remember) got caught in the rain that day, too. Then the rain stopped... and the skies cleared again. Weird. It's a northeast conspiracy/plot, I tell ya! :-) I kill me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithHall Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I guess it really doesn't matter what eastern city would host the championships. I will say that chance of rain down here in FL is 20% Hopefully all the precipitation will stay east of Rochester. If it does it then it will give everyone something more to complain about Rochester.

BonBon Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 All depends if Earl makes a left or a right. Makes a left, have fun and I hope you have your rain gear, I'll be spending the weekend cleaning up from the party If Earl make a right then we are OK. As of right now, LI is in the cone for Friday. Wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-horns Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 you know... and Don will back me up on this... Punta Gorda above Ft. Myers is "little Rochester" and believe me, it's not the slums... it's definitely the high rent district... but that last hurricane there leveled that place.... and our media definitely tempered the reporting - "who wants to hear rich retired people complain" - truth is - losing everything hurts no matter what your bank account is or how much insurance you have... I have to agree, that was total devestation. Those big-a... overhead highway signs on I-70 were a mass of scrap aluminum on the side of the road. A day or so after the storm came through, we got a call at the office from the airport looking to buy a windcone. When my sales rep asked what happened to the old one the guy on the phone said "Charlie took it." After a few minutes we figured out that is wasn't a person, but a hurricane.

JohnZ Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I come from Steel City Ambassadors. I have LOTS of experience marching in the rain! I blame Hawkins and that #### "Stormy Weather". Hey, all current weather models are in agreement on this one - looks like Earl will skirt the coast and stay over water! Now what to do about all that cool, crisp NY weather........
