Still time for it to change, but this has been the forecast for a few days now.  Just FYI for those traveling/planning...

  • Last time I checked it was calling for 30-40mm of rain (1.5 inches?) - a pretty serious amount. 
    For any outdoor show vets, is there protocol for this type of thing at outdoor PJ shows? A little rain = rock and roll? A lot of rain + lightning = delay/cancelation (depending on the radar)? Rescheduling isn't an option?
    I assume most bands would outright cancel if a thunderstorm were to roll through. PJ sticking around for 2.5 hours in 13' blew me away.

    Rain all it wants. Thunderstorms can fuck off right now though.

    Son of a B. The word scattered no longer exists. Let’s hope they’ve missed this one.

    2013 was awful. Nothing like being stuck in 90 degree Wrigley in the concourse for 2 hours while it stormed out. That wAs an awful night

    Cubs start a series in Detroit on Tuesday and there are no other concerts scheduled until Sept. 1. So the field is open. Maybe a Tuesday reschedule if the forecast is accurate? Who knows.

    As long as there isn't lightning, we should be good to go.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Hopefully the 10c can let people know the contingency plan here so people can make informed travel decisions.  (Chicago isn’t exactly cheap.)

    One of those things that looks better in hindsight than it felt at the time. There was also no food or water available which made it worse. At least we got to see Ernie Banks after.
