Question Uh oh...

I just checked www.weather.com and saw that they are currently predicting light rain on Saturday and showers on Sunday for Knoxville. Hopefully things change between now and then!!!

Edit: If you believe the Weather Channel's 10 day forecast, by all means, cancel and stay home!

In the course of doing my job, I rely on accurate forecasts - It has been my experience that the weather channel is more often wrong than it is right. Just my 2 cents worth, and I will probably eat my words because I used the "R" word, but if the weather channel said it was going to be and in the 80's, I'd prepare to swim like a

Quick "True" Story (Airgate and Wingman can back it up):

Last Dragonball I drove from S. Florida to Knoxville with a cat. 4 hurricane coming down on Miami. Weather channel and all local news said for me to beware. I said no way, it is going to be me and dragon this weekend. So I left my house with the hurricane shutters still off and traveled to Knoxville. Early Saturday morning the storm took a turn west and went into the Gulf of Mexico. My house was safe and I and the S2ki group had a kick A$$ time on the Dragon.

Moral of the Story: Weather Channel and Weather People Guess for a living. No "R" nothing but Bright Sunny, Sunny weather. A slit breeze would be nice though!!!
