Weather update for New Years Weekend as of Wednesday (12/29) evening:

DateWednesday, December 29, 2021 at 8:27PM
Well, in answer to the previous FB post from Malcom and a phone call yesterday from Ken, it's not looking promising for us on the 2022 New Years weekend.

Me MIGHT be able to get Saturday morning in, but by Noon it's forecast for 17 mph winds and drizzle. Then Sunday there's close to an inch of rain and more wind, like 18-20mph. .

Yesterday they were predicting about 3/4" of rain for Saturday as well, but that's dropped away a bit and moving in later, about 6 PM.

I'll keep an eye on it but it's not looking great I must say. I wish I had better news.

TB/dr
