The Oaks should be okay tomorrow. That rain band will stay there and slowing pivot overnight Friday into Saturday into the KD region. Saturday is marginal, but I still have hope that at worst, there will be only showers for the Derby.

I can see most of the card getting wet today with 1/4 inch or so by Derby post time. Start time for steady rain should be late morning. Not too terribly bad an amount over an 6-8 hour period.

I just looked at weather.com for May 3rd & the high will be supposedly 65 & 40% chance of rain........look for this to change quite frequently within the next 8 days.

SAM,

Here's what we say in Kentucky..


"If you don't like the weather, wait 15 minutes and it'll change."

Lotta truth there.Seen a few times it's snowed out at Keeneland in the Spring Meet

Week after Giacamo's Derby..the high in Lexington was freaking 45 and windy...

Beautiful day for Kentucky derby.........will be a fast track. I'm glad because I'm tired of seeing the derby running on sloppy tracks.

The weather for the entire week is what is referred to as chamber of commerce ordered

Friday, high is 72 & sunny!

Saturday, high of 86 & sunny!


No sloppy track for those horses that love the rain.

I'm guessing the track will have a chance of 70 percent dry, 30 percent wet for the Derby, but no mud or slop. If I had to bet, I'd bet "Good" condition on the track for Saturday. Tomorrow? I'm just glad I'm not a weatherman.

The forecast I'm seeing from Accuweather has it partly sunny with a T-Storm in the afternoon on Saturday. Friday? Shoot darts at a board and you'd probably be as accurate as a weatherman on Friday. Variable Cloudiness is called for. But who knows. The area has been getting pop-up showers for a while.
