J70 Competitors, this is the 1300 update from your Race Committee. The leading edge of the weather system came through around noon, with lightening. Currently, the nearest really bad weather is in El Campo, about an hour-hour and a half away. Reports form further south, where the storm went through before lunch, reported extreme high winds (50-60 kts), flooding rain fall and lightening. With your safety and the safety of the RC in mind, we do not want to make any attempt to go out on the water today until all of this has passed. We believe, based on what sea see on the radar, that there is not adequate time after the storms come through and the wind settles for us to run a race today. Therefore, we are going to scrub any racing today and we will pick back up with our published schedule tomorrow. Please note that we are moving our evening party to the Ballroom where the morning briefing took place. As planned the bar will open at 5:00pm and our Welcome to Texas Bar-b-que dinner will be served at 6:00pm. We hope to see you there!
