When this ride was posted, weather forecasts said NO RAIN. On the morning of the ride, multiple forecasts (National Weather Service, Apple/Dark Sky, Weather Channel/Weather Underground) were saying light rain that would be gone before 10 am. Driving over in the rain, forecasts continued to say rain would end prior to ride start.
There was a steady light rain when Greg Acs, Joan Oppel, Jackie & Randy Schoch, Dave Van Ameyden, and Anne Wittenberg all showed up at the Accokeek Firehouse hoping to ride. Most of us spent 45 minutes looking at various weather apps, all of which indicated rain would continue until 11:30 or noon, with an indication of some heavier rain before it stopped. Since the forecasts hadn't gotten it right up to that point, we decided at 11 am to cancel.
