Looking for information on the condition of the lake bed. A news story
last night showed flooded streets in Las Vegas. Can any of you LVVSA
folks say whether or not the ground launch weekend will go on?

Thanks,

Dan,
While I haven't been down there I expect it to be wet right now with all of the rain we've had. It should dry by the 17th if we don't get any more weather.
Will know more by Wed or Thurs next week. Check our website for updates.

Will do. Last time there I had to duck to keep my hair out of the
clouds. Took an aero tow on Sunday...

I'll be on the lake bed tomorrow with the Pawnee to check it out. I just heard possible showers on Tues. I'll follow the forecast over the weekend and see what we get. We'll let you know,

Lake looked good on Saturday. North end was a little dark but firm. We do have some weather forecast on Weds and Thurs, 30% chance of rain.
We'll let you know if it materializes, Jay will check the lake on Thurs or Fri and let us know. He has your email addy.

Thanks Bill, we'll likely decide on Thursday night. I'll but my glider
in the trailer on Wed or Thu and bring it home to be prepared.

The event has been cancelled due to forecast rain.

Thanks for the update. I've been following the forecasts and was about
90% certain that I wouldn't be making the trip from Moriarty.
