Being a Chicago native, I'm not used to hurricanes. Should I make the trip out or will the tournament just get cancelled? Also, it would suck to get stuck... lots of questions. As a frequent traveler, I have my fair share of delays and cancellations. I've already spent the miles to purchase the ticket but I would be able to get back the hotel stay and a weekend of not being in a hurricane.
For those of you with experience, any thoughts? Also, if I have any DC residents or NOVA followers... what is the plan?
Hey we are from the Mississippi Gulf Coast and deal with Hurricanes all the time. I am getting on the plane Friday morning to the Nova. If the hurricane stays off shore until it hits NYC then it will be just a big rain event. If it goes directly into North Carolina then that is a problem. I would email Mike B. and see what they say.
ReplyDeleteAardvarko, thanks for the heads up. I'll stay on the weather channel and see. It looks like they're still going to run it. If anything, we'll just have to hole up with a bottle of whiskey and ride it through!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm from Colorado and also don't really know what to expect from Irene. I'm planning on flying out tomorrow morning but... this is making me a little nervous.
ReplyDeleteHope they don't just cancel it...
Xaereth: just got an email back from the NOVA team, apparently it's still on. Going to be paying close attention to the weather and keeping my fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely come. The forecast keeps lessening and being pushed further back. Besides - we need windy city mentality out here now and then.
ReplyDeleteAs a born and bred Texan, it comes naturally for me to say "Fuck you" to hurricanes. JUST GO!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's on! We decided we'll be making the trip.
