Live from Orlando

Well we left the camp ground around 10:30 for the long 25 mile trip to the track. Our timing was great we rolled right through the gates with no lines. Still hard to believe the differance between NHRA and IHRA, quite a few cars here and this is Thursday. We made it through tech and watched some T&T yesterday I'll up load some photos later. It was cool yesterday the DA was around 1100 ft should be about the same today.

Robbie,
Weather Channel forecast for Orlando calls for 10% of rain at 2 pm, then at 3 PM 50% of Thunderstorms. Hope they are wrong.

Robbie Welch · 02-11-2012, 01:22 PM

They got every thing finished yesterday and the rain held off until last night. This morning its over cast hope it clears up.The DA today is 450ft what a differace a day makes Nick is looks good for today

Npw you guys will be needing to adjust your numbers in your boxes...LOL that was great the rain held off, those weather guys are the only ones that we know that can be wrong everyday of the week and still keep their jobs

Well what a differance a day makes. I woke up this morning to 30degs in Orlando, now I know it can get cold in Florida but but I didn't want to see it first hand.

What a day this is going to be. By my weather station it's 2266 feet below sea level. I think I'll let you take the stripe. Lol

Wish I had a Block Heater !

hey Chuck, you say it was 2000 ft below sea level? Could you be so kind to tell me what the barometric pressure was, temperature and humidity? I still use the long method for figuring altitude from the pressure temp and wet bulb. Just curios on what the basic numbers are. I have not opted for a weather station yet.
