So Jay,
What is the call? I need to know ASAP, the present plan is to go to work for 3am and stay until 8am. If the run gets postponed an hour I can go to bed later or canceled until Sunday, then I can go in for my normal time.
Bottom line is, if the run is going to run as scheduled, I need to go to sleep in one hour!
So leader of the run...what is the call...LOL
Dave

If we change to Sunday we will gain some people but lose some others... Sunday 0% chance of rain.

according to NOAA the chance of precip goes down to 5% after 12:00 am.
Hourly Weather Forecast for 41.51N 74.02W
If we push back a little, the winds should dry up the roads nicely.
Im going out to the garage and make sure everything is tight and ready to roll, ill check back in shortly to see what you think.

Guys if you look at the forecast for CT there is very small chance of rain, when you look at Newburgh there is a potential front that is probably going to bring some rain. I've emailed a few of you and the concept of any rain has people saying move it to Sunday which I really do not want to do.
I've been on the phone with a customer for the last 1.5 hour and I am just getting back here. I will make one more scan of the forecasts and roll the dice in 15 minutes before I leave.
Thanks for patience.
Also I will post here first and then Facebook, so this is THE PLACE for the most up to date. Don't worry...

Okay boys, 7:38pm update. Checked weather.com for North Haven, Danbury and Newburgh, NY. Sat 30% precipitation, Sun 10% precipitation. Either is fine with me. Game time decision!

POSTPONED TO SUNDAY OCTOBER 16TH
I am going to kick myself tomorrow when it does not rain, but we are going to have drier roads, lower wind, and no rain on Sunday.
Sorry for the indecision, trying to get it right for as many people as possible. Please pass the info along to other channels you may be on (ffcars, etc.)

See you all at the Danbury Mall at 10am...hopefully most of us can make it, the weather should be great!!!
Jay, this was a hard one to call, but I think you made the correct decision considering all the circumstances. I am just happy that this weekend was flexible enough for me that either day was OK.
Good Job, and hope we have a great run!
