I have been busy with preseason activities and other preparations for the start of the school year, so I have not been as "in touch" with the weather as I like to be.
Thanks to a Will Schanz text, he tipped me off to the daring weather prediction from midhudsonweather.com. Our guy over there is saying that the Hurricane Irene threat that has everyone shaking in their galoshes is, well, all washed up. He is predicting minimal to no impact on our area.
Wow! A bold prediction, indeed.
I have bumped into a lot of Important People at Marist in the past few days. All are worried about the impact that this hurricane -- which, by the time it reaches us will just be a whole lot of rain -- will have on the upcoming Opening Weekend. Moving in a few thousand new and returning students in a torrential downpour is probably not what they had in mind.
But, not to worry! Mid Hudson Weather.com says it's all a sham and a ruse. I hope he is correct.
Given the volatile nature of weather and weather predicting, we all would do well to keep checking for updates.
Remaining preseason practice schedule:
Thursday: Vanderbilt for men's tempo run workout.
Friday: A return trip to Minnewaska.
Saturday: Long run for the men; Time Trial on the track for the women.
