See you all tomorrow!
 
Well everyone have a good trip and guess meet yall at the hotel at some point tonight.

And who pissed off the rain gods?


Tonight:

Thunderstorms likely, some strong, especially during the evening. Storms may produce large hail and strong winds. Low 66F. Winds SSW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 80%.

Tomorrow:

Cloudy in the morning, then thunderstorms developing later in the day. A few storms may be severe. High 76F. Winds SSW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 80%.
 
Ok so I'll make the call here. Since I dont want to sit out in the rain. Tonight we will chill at my house. Ive got a decent size garage for us to stay dry. I dont know if we all wanna get a bite to eat first and the hang in the garage or what?

I won't be out of work and ready for anyone till around 5-6 ish. So i'm thinking we meet at local place for dinner and then ride over to my house. Parking will be a little difficult at my house as I have room mates and its a small street but we can deal with that after the fact. So who wants what to eat. There is a nice tilted kilt at the chicago ridge mall by my house. There is also BWW and Chili's.

So how does this sound?

I've never been to a Tilted Kilt:wink:, even though there's one in Novi MI nearby. How about that?:yes:
 
I will call once I am close and yall can tell me where to go.
 
Could we use a folding table? I have a 6 footer i can bring
 
I'm really really late getting out :(

Story of my life recently.

Leaving within the next 30 however.

Why do you think I'm getting out late :rotfl:

I ran into a few snags on hooking them up. Bad relay was causing me grief.

OK, grabbing the addresses and out the door! Cya guys! :biggrin:

Oy, 1 relay controls my stereo, my tablet, and all of my interior lighting. If that thing went out I'd be screwed! Perhaps i should pick up an extra, lol.
 
I keep getting flash flood warnings on my phone from WeatherBug. That reminds me, I forgot my waders!
 
Ok, so i'm bringing my friend Will with me. I need you all to help me convince him that he should get a TB SS or a 9-7x aero.

Be careful what you ask for, someone just might do it. :raspberry:

Fixed (nothing against the TB SS, but the Aero seems much more rare)
 
the severe storms seem to have died off. This area is now showing some storms around 8pm but not as bad as predicted before....

Come on no rain.
 
We made it.... not too bad of weather...
