[fox46]

So this should make things interesting: http://www.baytoday.ca/content/news/details.asp?c=59956

As of 5:00 AM EDT Wednesday, , Environment Canada continued a special weather advisory for North Bay - Powassan - Mattawa and West Nipissing - French River.

Snow expected, beginning this evening in Northwestern Ontario and spreading toward Northeastern Ontario by Thursday morning.

A developing weather system will track towards Ontario on Thursday. Snow associated with this system will spread into the southern parts of Northwestern Ontario this evening, then spread eastward through the night into the southern parts of Northeastern Ontario.

At this time it appears that parts of Northwestern Ontario - roughly along and south of a line from about Atikokan to Marathon - could receive between 10 and 15 cm of snowfall in total, most of it falling tonight and Thursday morning.

Well if it's so warm what's with the snow?

All kidding aside, I would love to come and even help out as a FTS but with limited funds bunking out in a snow bank would not really that much fun.

After seeing the robots today I'm confident that all of the top 4 alliances have an equal chance at winning the event.

Hopefully field reset crew will be ready for the home run derby 2013 & 2200 are going to put on in match 57.

610 was really impressed with 188's robot at GTRW and incorporated some of their design elements into our latest design iteration. Good luck everyone and remember to drive it like you stole it.

This was the greatest to see when walking into the pits this morning.

Can someone tell the game announcer how many points a 3 assist low goal is worth? He keeps saying 21 points.

Wow the wrap up video that was produced for North Bay was incredible, hopefully it gets posted online for everyone to see.

So by the looks of the wildcard, if i'm reading correctly it seems that every team in the finals gets an invitation to worlds. I really do like the new wildcard system, it helps alot.

That's correct.

610 and 4914 both qualified at GTRW (winners and RAS respectively). That gives the finalist alliance 2 wildcards, but 4476 won GTRE so they're bypassed. The same thing happened at Waterloo and GTRW in 2013.
