Who's going?
Temps look great, with a high of 80 and an overnight low of 70.
Chance of thunderstorms increasing to 60% overnight.
Predicted total rainfall is only around 0.2", so that's not bad at all.
Wind looks like 7-9 mph for the period, shifting from S to W to WNW.
So not fantastic conditions like last year, but as long as we don't get pulled for lightning we could see some PRs. I'd sure like to improve on my 394 by, say, about 6 miles

I may have to try it next year. Looks like we've got two Texans headed that way, and I know one of them. Sounds like lots of people out for it.

Turned out great, weather-wise. Wind was steady but not bad, cloud cover most of the day kept it cool, and the rain never showed. I even managed to hit my goal.
