Default Rain

I just went to www.weather.com to check out the weather for the long weekend coming up. The prediction for the Northeast is for rain on Friday, Saturday & Monday. Sunday is to be cloudy with a chance of showers. Temperatures are going to be mostly in the 50s

I was looking forward to some top down driving this weekend. Now it looks like the S will spend a few more days in the garage. Maybe Adam (my 9 year old) and I will clay bar it in the garage, but that's not as much fun as driving it top down.

Short of moving to another part of the country, what does it take to get some nice weather for a change? Do you think spring will ever get here?

I hope so we have been getting a lot of rain here in Vt this spring. Everything is extremely green already from all the rain. I'm hoping its not going to be like a couple of summers ago were it literally almost rained everyday.

Vermont and upstate New York are two of the most beautiful places on this planet. Vermont is arguably the single most beautiful place. I can only imagine how nice Vt looks this time of year after receiving a lot of rain.

Still, like you, I'd like to have a nice sunny weekend for top down driving!

Yes ralper it is unbelivably green here now. We actually still have a couple of patches of snow on the mountain but I'm sure they will disappear very soon. I'm getting my S hopefully in two weeks so I'm hoping the rain will stop by then!

If it rains this weekend I will be pissed. I have tickets for the Indy 500. Rain delays really suck at the track.

Actually, the shop that is building the motor (http://www.toyotaperformance.com/) called me today. The valve cover is going on tomorrow then they crate it up and ship it. It should be in the truck and running in about 2 weeks. I will post a thread when I get it finished.
