Doesn't look good for today,at least not for an on-time start. NWS says 90% chance today, not dropping below 50% until after 2:00.
One alternative is the IMSA race at Mid-Ohio.

I hope your forecast is correct for all of you attending. I also hope you get to see a complete race and not just one that's legal according to the rulebook.
I'll take what I can get I can't come back tomorrow, just parked and it's not raining right now.

Is it wet? I'm up in Newark and it's soggy here.
It's raining right now, looking at weather.com I'm basing my hope on it saying between 2-3 PM rain becomes showers and then light rain

Looks like a wash today. Not heading up and won’t be able to go tomorrow. Will be the first Dover cup race I have missed since fall 2015.

I opted not to drive down. Forecast looks worse than last May's and if anyone recalls, last year's forecast the night before was pretty ugly too. Shame, because i think there would have been good a crowd coming off of a great weekend at Talladega.

Guess I'll go play 18.
Rain rain go away! Come again on a week day!
It does look like they can get going a couple hours late though.. hopefully
This is what my weather app says..
Fingers crossed!

I wasn't planning on going today anyway but this is why I always bought tickets the day before or day of when I did go. Hope it clears up for those of you there.
Radar looks like they could begin drying by 1:30. Anyone remember how long it takes to dry The Monster?

Took about an hour last spring but that was just a pop up shower.

Just looked at radar, there's a whole lot of rain coming from the SW -- just beginning to cross Chesapeake Bay heading toward Dover.
not a chance without the vortex going.
The cars don't race in the stands.
