Big storms headed this way from the south and west - weather underground expects the rainstorm at 6. Looking at the radar and satellite maps I don't really see more than maybe a light rain before 6:30. My commute is south and takes around 30 minutes, so I'm thinking I'll wait till the last minute at 5:30 or 5:45 and race the weather. This is the version of Commuter Racing that I really like, testing not just how fast you can go but also your judgment and, if you're too slow or you're wrong, can you handle the elements.

Last week I got soaked by a deluge, 1.5 miles from home. I'm hoping to do better this time.

ps, I made it before 6 AND no storm yet!
