Moab weather

This year's California MUni Weekend will probably be September 3-5,
17-19, or 24-26.



If you ask me (though you didn't), I'd say that I can definitely come on
September 3-5 or 24-26, but only possibly on Sept. 17-19.

I'd -really- prefer September 3-5, or 24-26 if I can't do 3-5.

Hey Tom, I like how you played off tacoing your 29er. You should have a
ppicture of it as your avatar.

Don't you think it's a cruel irony that acting like a G.I. Joe in the
army can get you a Medal, while playing with one can get you thrown out?

weekend.

September 3-5 would be just perfect for me.
But I'll be hypnotising my parents anyway, so I'll be there no matter
what.

Back to Moab...
The latest report from Moab isn't looking as good.
Friday: Partly Cloudy 76/44
Saturday: -Isolated Thunder Storms- 68/43
Sunday: -Isolated T-Storms- 77/44
At least it doesn't sound like it's going to rain a whole lot (Knock on
wood...)
Does anyone know how Slickrock is after a rain storm? Is Slickrock
actually slick?

Speaking as an Airhead, excuse me Atmospheric Scientist, I don't get
_too_ excited about a weather report until about 48 hours out, so
Thursday would be the day. I plan to check it out before we hit the road
Thursday morning.

Just bringing this back up to the top. Although Jim_Rob correctly
pointed out that it's still too early to accurately predict the weather,
I thought I'd give everyone a heads-up.

Friday Partly Cloudy/Wind 83/47
Saturday Mostly Sunny 65/39
Sunday Mostly Sunny 64/42

It looks like the rain has gone away, but it may be cold, even during
the day. Good for water conservation, but don't forget to bring
something warm to wear, even on the trails. And for those camping,
bring an extra blanket.
Plus, it was somewhat cool last year, so I neglected to put on
sunscreen. Big mistake. WEAR SUNSCREEN!

Heres a great weather link, they update in early am and around 3:00pm
daily. A cold front is definetly going to pass over the area during the
weekend, but my opinion is that it's better to ride in the cool weather
than the hot, like last weekend. The La Sal mountains typically squeeze
the moisture out before the desert gets it.

65 degrees and mostly sunny sounds like brilliant riding weather to me,
but you're advice is good. That's just the high and it might be pretty
chilly in the morning or when the sun gets low later on.
