Silver Birch and weather

There have been several questions raised about the weather conditions for tomorrow evening. I am watching the weather closely, and will continue doing so all day Friday. Let me just mention a few things:

• Our decision on whether or not to leave will not be related to whatever local schools do as far as cancellations/delays on Friday. If forecasts hold things may well improve greatly by evening.
  
• The system is not supposed to greatly affect northern Wisconsin, with Silver Birch expecting little to no precipitation tomorrow. Sheboygan, if projections hold, is really supposed to be the northern most point the system will affect in such a way as to prohibit travel. Green Bay in fact is expecting only light snow for Friday.
• At this point there are no plans to cancel the trip. Saturday looks like a relatively better day, and therefore if we could not leave Friday we would leave EXTREMELY early Saturday (like 5am). If we do that we miss very little of the weekend activities.
  
• No matter what we will meet at HRC as planned. We may have a "lock in" Friday night, then all board and leave 5am or earlier if need be.
