Greetings Ansteorra,
As Bonwicke is actually 3 and 1/2 hours from the
site for Champions I have had to do some digging
for weather information. Below you will find many
links and all kinds of information. However it
all boils down to this; there is a tornado watch
in effect for the county that the site is located
in and those to the north of it. This means there
are favorable conditions for spawning a possible
tornado. At the very least some thunderstorms
(possibly severe) are likely tonight. The weather
looks much brighter for tomorrow with only a
slight chance of continued rain, the big issue is
tonight.
My suggestion, if you are concerned, would be to
wait until after 6:00pm to see if the watch is
lifted and what the weather looks like at that
point before you take to the road. If you are
traveling, keep any eye on the weather and an ear
to local radio stations. Alternatively, you could
wait and travel to the site in the morning. We
will be happy to push back our start times to
accommodate those coming in the morning. There is
a hall on site and I am currently trying to
insure that we will have access to it tonight in
case of bad weather.
This is Western Ansteorra and as the saying goes
"If you don't like the weather, wait a minute".
We hope to see you all this weekend and we will
make the most of the weather as it comes. Be
safe, that is the most important thing.
In service,
Kainin Tepesa,
Baron of Bonwicke
