Early Derby weather forecast
 

It looks like thunderstorms for the Oaks and showers all day for the Derby.

Thank you Willard.

I prefer to be called Al Roker. The physical appearance more closely resembels me. But the post was for those folks that are traveling to Louisville. People like me.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh maybe not
 

Hope you're better at picking the horses...

Weather.com always calls for rain. A week out is impossible to forecast. Accuweather is much more reliable.

This forecast is a lot less pessimistic than weather.com

As long as it's in the 70's, I can take a few showers. I survived the tornado warning of 2004, and later waded through knee deep water to buy a mint julep, so a little sprinkle doesn't scare me.

Thanks...i never have used accuweather. I mostly use www.noaa.gov but they do not forecast 10 days out.

Just what we need.. A sloppy Derby.. Like it won't be hard enough to actually pick the winner in this bunch let alone find out who like dirt/mud :rolleyes:

Something tells me the tri and super this year are going to be HUGE!

showers = no -bt-
i went through 2004 and the waste deep water in the infield
i'll just stay at home and bet via twinspires.com... what?

-bt-

I hate rain for horseracing days!:(

"I'm sure there will be a few people that will experience golden showers on derby day."

with prevailing hot winds!?

With gusts up to 45 mph (up to 70mph in the Carolina Barbecue stands)

Oh my God.

Hope your wrong Willard Roker!:eek:

I know you don't mean that. If you go that route, put on a skirt while you are on the sofa.:D
