Thursday morning Elizabeth Gardner on WRAL is forecasting 1-3" for the Triangle area. That's from tonight through the end of the rain, sometime Saturday afternoon. It may stop before game time, but the afternoon may still have rain. Booooooooooooooooo!

Weather Channel 48 hour forecast still has a 70% chance of rain in Derm as of 0800 Saturday but also has "rain ending early" for their Saturday forecast. Wonder how waders will look with my cargo kilt, leggings and parka...

That would be a fine look, DD.

I've picked up a 22 oz Legend Brown Ale, from Legend Brewing Co. in Richmond, to contribute to the beer tasting festivities. I'm a big fan of Brown Ale so we shall see how this one stacks up against Newcastle.

You're on. Legend is a good brewery and has been brewing for more than a decade, IIRC. I'll bet it's better than Newcastle. ;)

When I last spoke to Richard and Elaine (at my dad's visitation), they were excited about joining us again this year. I'm sure they'll get up with Ozzie when they come. Also, Marie Kearney msged me on FB about being full time, and she'll be getting up with Ozzie as well.

While the morning looks dreary, by the time we're all chowing down it should be insanely thankful weather for this time of year. TNT's and I PLAN of action is to see how it's looking in the morning, but we'll have the grill fired up no later than noon. Turkeys are going in the brine on Friday.

PS....back home in New Bern, we're expecting 10". Scottie's ECU debut is gonna be a wet one.
