Thanks for all the links but the weather one is one I had not found yet.I know it's just a little more than a guess but it's interesting to look at.I have reservations for Sunday night and Monday night in Santee SC at a cheap Roadway in.I am excited and dragging my 3 boys kicking and screaming to this event.
I hope to see some of you down there.

chance that you will see rain in a particular area but rather the
percentage of the forecast area that will see likely see rain.

It's all a matter of how you interpret what they're saying and they
play this to their advantage.
