Are you guys expecting rain for the division race,I have been checking on the weather for the weekend and it looks like showers Saturday and Sunday what is the local report.i would sure hate to make that hump and get cancelled

Latest reports say possible rain on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Best chance for rain is Saturday. I'm not sure how accurate this is since we have heard this before and did not get any rain. We have been dry for about 66 days.

The weather forecast I am looking at says temp in the 80's on Friday and 70's Saturday thru Monday. The only day with good chance of rain is Saturday with a 70% showing, others 10% or less. Good luck to all and hope the weather cooperates.

Of course we all know how accurate weather forecasters are.

Best way to end a drought is to schedule a drag race.

Any one there already that can comment on what they think.I watched the weather channel this morning and it looked like the rain would totally miss Phoenix and they are not even commenting on anything falling in the area just California .

Beautiful night tonight but slightly hazy
My bet would be possible rain delay Saturday but race will get run. Just guessing but trying to help out those trying to decide whether or no to come.

Good luck

I agree with Mike....the race will get in.

Nascar race here this week end also. The latest forecast calls for highs in the 60's Saturday and Sunday. (much cooler than the 80's we have had for the past couple of weeks)

Any rain on Friday (qualifying day) will come after 5 PM. Saturday could be a wash out, but Sunday afternoon looks OK and should get everything in.

Forecast:
The "main event" arrives on Friday, with rain, even a few thunderstorms possible in the Valley as early as 5 or 6pm. However, I think the prime time for rain will be during the overnight hours into Saturday morning.

I am still looking at the possibility of up to 1" of rain out of this storm for Phoenix, which would end our rain-free streak in a BIG way!

Snow will fall in the mountains, with the snow level fairly high...starting at 8,000' lowering only to 6,500' at the lowest.

Unfortunately, the rain will fall as the Valley plays host to a large outdoor event: NASCAR. Events on Saturday could be delayed/postponed/canceled because of the rain, but the afternoon looks a little better than the morning. Then on Sunday for the big race, I see some lingering pop-up type showers that could impact afternoon activities at the track.

This is also the first weekend of Cactus League Spring Training games! Ugh.

With the clouds and rain this weekend come cooler temperatures. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will stay in the 60s.
