Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

I dont think some 30% chance thunderstorms is anything we have to worry about. worrying if its going to rain on the way to and from the Georgia Dome is pretty trivial. the only thing we are concerned about is delays in flights on Wednesday. no biggie

Lightbulb Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

Hey, if its sunny my team may just walk. Most of us live no more than 30 minutes from the dome. Wow, we are going to be the only ones really walking to the competition, unless IHOT (I love you guys!) comes on Saturday. Anybody who knows about the Atlanta teams, are we (1648 at Grady) the closest team in Atlanta these past few years that it has been here? If so, that is SO COOL!!!! We get to walk with the rest of you guys coming from the hotels! See ya out there Thursday morning!!

PS. Three more days!!!

Thumbs up Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

The Weather is looking good, except for some rain and tstorms on thursday. Other than that, looks like mostly sun...

I aint afraid to get a little wet... might help with the sweat of competition.

Talking Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

Don't put much stock in a weather report a week off. Of course it could rain but lets wait and see what they say beginning next Tuesday. Don't worry about something you can't control.

Six of our team members just returned home from the GA World Congress Center for the Atlanta Auto Show, which was great by the way. The weather, the cars & the ladies were beautiful. It was in the low 70's and we hope will be the same for the fantastic Championship's next week.

Even if it rains, all will have a great time except for running between the GA Dome, hotels & CNN Center. Once you get to the Dome you all will have the time of your life!

Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

According to weather.com this is what the max humidity will be like, (tends to get sticky on the east coast when the weather warms up)

Arrival Day-Day: 55%
-Night: 64%
Practise Day-Day: 57%
-Night: 63%
Qualifying Day -Day: 61%
-Night: 71%
Judgement Day - Day: 61%
-Night: 63%
Departure Day -Day: 51%
-Night: 52%

Well i'm sitting in new jersey right now on one of the nicest days in a long time and the relative humidity is 33% and its like perfect. So it may be a bit sticky while we are there, particularly during Qualifying.

Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

And from the people that actually know weather.

National Weather Service

Knowing weather though, this could all change before next weekend anyways.

That link didn't work... I think it was meant to go here.

The short version as of Sunday Morning:

Thursday: Partly cloudy, with a high near 77.

Thursday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low near 53.

Friday: A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a high around 77.

Friday Night: A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 56.

Saturday: A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a high around 74.


(I always go to the National Weather Service directly for weather... I find it more informative and less cluttered with advertising and gardening/golfing/other non-weather related stuff than The Weather Channel's site. It also provides more raw data and real meteorological discussion related to possible trends and forecast scenarios.)

Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

Of course when I'm going to Atlanta where it'll be warm it's also going to be warm in NY...as soon as I get back it'll probably be like 40 again.

Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

Weather Underground (this link for Atlanta) is BY FAR my favorite weather information source. Great radar and tons of data.

Sure am glad my Segway is waterproof !!

Re: Atlanta Weather Forecast

Here's yet another link to the Atlanta weather forecast. These are by AccuWeather, which has 15-day forecasts. I've been watching these forecasts for the past week, and the numbers have remained pretty constant.

Thursday:
http://wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/p...uweather&day=5
Friday:
http://wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/p...uweather&day=6
Saturday:
http://wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/p...uweather&day=7

Basically said, here are the percentages of the chance of precipitation. Note that how low these numbers are.
Thursday:
15% Probability
Thursday Night:
10% Probability
Friday:
31% Probability
Friday Night:
19% Probability
Saturday:
20% Probability
Saturday Night:
8% Probability

The highest chance of precipitation is only 31% on Friday night. Usually you aren't guarenteed to have rain until the precentages are in the 70-80% range or higher. Also, if you look at the anticipated precipitation on AccuWeather, they're predicting 0 inches of rain on Thursday, 0.19 inches of rain on Friday, and 0 inches of rain on Saturday. 0.19 inches of rain is hardly anything.
