The Official Rocket Across America IV Thread

Anyone who was at RAA111 and is attending RAAIV please send me your name plus your site handle.
I have some small video clips and quite a few pictures from RAA111 and I will put them on a DVD (nothing to fancy) and bring them to RAAIV

Ratboy please leave the weather predictions to Scowherd, his sounds a lot better than yours.

Dave,

The fireman in me says this feels like a trap! But I'll be the first to say I was at III and I'll be at IV, Oh Brother!

See you in 8 days.

Update April 30th... Weather.com has

• Friday May 8th Hi71 - Lo45: 60% chance of rain
• Saturday May 9th Hi71 - Lo45: 60% chance of rain
• Sunday - Pending updates
• Monday - Pending updates

Don't forget a coat and raingear... 45 is going to be a little chilly if you're wet.

This is the extended 10day forecast from weather.com and they're usually wrong, but plan accordingly.

Ratboy please leave the weather predictions to Scowherd, his sounds a lot better than yours.

I'm afraid RatBoy's source analysis is reading like mine, with Saturday's 60% ending in the morning although at the highest elevations it may be damp all day and particularly to the north side; and breezy (upwards to 20) NW wind. I never rely on weather.com. A significant storm system will be brewing in the central plains Monday and reaching the Smokys and NE on Tuesday; with heavy rain encountered (360 hour source analysis, of my own). There's a 24 to 36 hour fudge factor to lay in when looking this far out and Scowherd could be right as rain

Let me redo my post Ratboy and HeR3tic please leave the weather predictions to Scowherd his sounds a lot better than both of yours, maybe not as accurate but sounds better.

My best wishes to all for a safe ride to and from RAAIV. Enjoy the shared friendship, knowledge, and camaraderie these gathering generate. You guys will have a good time. I am really sorry circumstances prevent me from attending this one, but there is always next year.
