A friend of a friend owns the downtown Days Inn on Rideau... Had I thought of it sooner, I could have arranged an Ottawa Mazda Meet discount with him or something. Now his hotel is full. Oh well, remind me next year.

Anyway, if you check expedia.ca there is a hotel (forget which name - quality inn? travelodge? something East-Gloucester) that has rooms for $109 available for Saturday night. You'd definitely want to find something east.

How do you figure? The weather network was saying RAIN both days this morning!

*goes and re-checks*

Okay... cool... rain both days has been changed to Cloudy/17 on saturday and Variable Cloudieness/23 on sunday. Both days 30% chance of rain or less.

All hail the rotary gods then!

The weather is a very dynamic system, you b00ns. Just like you can't predict what kind of ghetto fabrication Frank is going to do tomorrow, or what simple thing Aaron is going to break on a daily basis!!!

5 day forecasts are useless....check on friday, and maybe the weather for sat and sun will the correct.

John's got a point.

Last year we had daily updates of what the weather was *supposed* to be like on the weekend.

I'm just gonna chill and hope that it's nice. If not... well I just picked up 16 "new" cassettes to play in my old-skool Rx7 Cassette Deck, so I'll have entertainment in the rain.

FC = 3k, give or take a few hundred rpm...

4k is a little too high.


coldfire - unplug either of the leads on the sensor at the bottom driver's-side corner of the rad - you don't the AWS at this time of year, anyway.
