![]() Should be a most interesting Press Conference, and they need to have one just for the Weather, then that doesn't look good at all. Monsoon may be coming.

![]() Not great but not as bad as feared for tomorrow...
Heavy rains expected 10a-1p with 40mph winds before a window of milder winds (10-15mph) and lighter rain 2-7p that should allow for 'normal' racing conditions. The most severe and more dangerous weather appears to be arriving 12 hours later than originally forecast. All appropriate plans are in place should they be required.
