    I just checked the weather forecast for this weekend. Yikes. It's supposed to be "scattered thunderstorms" from today through next Wednesday. If it turns out that it is raining on Saturday and Sunday, I'm gonna pass on going out. I'd be up for some dinner with whomever wants to get together, though.

    Brian...unless the weather report drastically changes, there's no way I'm getting up at o'dark thirty this weekend. Maybe...maybe...I'd go out for a little bit in the afternoon if, in the morning, the weather looked like it might let up, but I'm not getting up early with the chance that when I do it is raining or overcast.

    I agree. I'm curious, though, to see if it'll be Tstorms like last weekend, where we had a few MASSIVE CBs and blue sky with some great light. Either way, minimal spotting or none at all, dinner sounds like a good idea. Tom mentioned a nice/"expensive" seafood/casual place by 31R that has great views of arriving traffic (on 31R), so I'd like to check that out, with or without planes.

    Applebees is getting stupid. "Incredibowl"...shut the hell up.

    Hey cancidas, I'll be coming over the Verrazano on Sat. from EWR area. Where in Brooklyn are you? I guess this all depends on the weather of course but honestly it will take a lot for me not to come this weekend. It'll be my first time hangin' with you guys but I don't mind giving you a lift. :)
    Sweet.

    Hey everyone, its Friday evening and I think I will probably go out, except if its raining or overcast when i wake up. I really want to go so I hope its another day like today, blue skies :) My only question is how do we meet up. I haven't met any of you and I don't have anybody's phone number. If anybody would like to call me, my number is: (386)405-7153 I'm not sure what time you guys plan on meeting but I was going to get up around 6 or so. Let me know so I don't wake up to early haha. See you soon.

    Sounds like the weather may just work out in the morning. I'll be out for a bit once I drop my friends off at LGA, then I'm heading off to NJ. Hopefully see some of you guys in the morning.

    I had a bit of a problem with setting up the new internet connection here, forcing me to dip into the NYC weekend funds, plus the weather being an issue, so I won't be able to make it up this weekend. D'oh! But when I go back to school I promise I'll be up there every other weekend, or something like that!

    If the Weather is good I will be out early.
    It's hard to take chances but sometimes it's better if you do

    I won't be out, if at all, until the afternoon. It's supposed to be cloudy in the morning, with the possibility of scattered t-storms in the afternoon. If today and yesterday were any indication of what Saturday will be like, the afternoon will be fine but the morning will be kinda dull.
