Looking good for the Games on the 11th

I'm in NY...Long Island to be exact. But the weather for the 11th in DC looks good. Sunny and in the 80s. Have a great playoff and by the way, the Mets actually won the Wednesday night game that I took my son to see.

Outlook for Saturday June 27

We're finally in a summer pattern with highs that will be at or over 90 Thursday through Sunday. That means that the heat may have an impact on Saturday, especially since we really haven't played in HOT weather.

The one "fly in the ointment", is the threat for some thunderstorms on Friday afternoon. Other than that (famous last words), we should be in good shape because the sunny dry weather this week will have our fields in perhaps the best shape of the season.

Saturday AM Update 6/20/09

We did not get the showers/storms from Pennsylvania during the overnight, but I'm looking at
the WUSA 9 WEATHER Regional radar product at 5 AM this morning and there is activity coming out of Ohio Headed toward West Virginia and Pennsylavania. I am concerned that this will arrive before we're done and that we may not get all 3 games in.

Friday Update

We have some drying going on today, but I have fears about tonight. Big Storms near Chicago early this afternoon may make it here during the overnight. If that happens, we're toast. If it doesn't happen, then we still have a threat for showers and storms tomorrow that can fire during the morning. This will be the other possible killer for us.

I suggest that you check Doppler 9000 and the League's Web Site when you get up.

Thursday Rains Were Heavy

2 rounds of storms dropped upwards of 2 inches per rain on Thursday and I do not know if we'll have enough time to dry out. Friday will be warm and that will help, but we might also see some more thunderstroms Friday night. If that happens...we're screwed.

June 20th Outlook

So, we're in the middle of the week and once again rain has been falling. But, the rain today was far lighter than in past weeks and we're also going to get some warmer readings for Thursday and Friday and that will help dry things out. Unfortunately, we'll still have some showers/thunderstorms possible both Thursday and Friday afternoon. So, if the softball gods are kind to us, we won;t see too much more rain between now and Saturday morning.

Keep watching LIVE DOPPLER 9000 for the latest and I'll see you on the field.

Saturday June 13th--Thursday Update

Sorry for the late post, I'm on a new schedule at work and evrything is different.

So far we missed the rain today, but the ground is still rather soggy. If we can dodge the rain bullet tonight and tomorrow, then Saturday actually looks good with sunshine and highs in the low to mid 80s.

The only unknown is how dry will the fields be by game time.
