Chance of showers
There is a 30% chance of rain on Friday and a 50% chance of thunderstorms on Saturday and guess what is happening – JAZZ FEST! Now I know for some that means muddy, yucky and unfavorable conditions, but that is a good thing as a friend reminded me this morning, because rain keeps away crowds, even the hint of rain means those who melt will stay far away.
I was looking through the schedule and for Simon & Garfunkel so far 2,600 people have signed up for saying they will see that one event. That is a fraction of the 100K that could show up at the Fairgrounds on Saturday. But if it rains, well all bets are off.
Ideal conditions would be ugly portents of rain, lots of Weather Channel talk of rain, then nada. That would at least shave off the weak from the strong Jazz Festers.
