Have you heard of Hades? About 10 degrees cooler......................

Seriously though, Mid to high 90s pretty much guaranteed. Might get lucky and witness triple digits.

You got that backwards, triple digits guaranteed, might get lucky and see high 90s. Bring lots of Gold Bond for your balls.

Yep, count on mid to high 90s for sure, with a high likelyhood of triple digits.  What makes it unbearable is the humidity off the Gulf of Mexico. When you have a South Wind, it can get extremely miserable extremely quickly.

I certainly hope it doesn't cancel.  I'm planning on going and it would be my first and probably only Nationals in the foreseeable future.   

I think the surge of cases that is starting right now should taper back down by late summer. That's a long way off, and viral illnesses usually decline drastically in the summer months as people get out and spend less time cooped up indoors. It's hitting my area (the PNW) right now, and we expect it to last until about June before it winds back down here, slightly later for the central states. I wouldn't cancel your reservations just yet!!

Thanks Tim. Are you coming ?....harv

I wish, my friend.  I will have to wait for Vegas before I can go again, though Vegas is hellacious in August too. Why does this dang convention have to be in August anyway? Plus, it's always in someplace hotter than the devil's ballsack for that time of year. Never in some cooler northern city like Seattle.

I hardly think this is all the end of the world yada yada, but chances are slim that I will get on an airplane for a while. I just don't see all the vendors coming, especially those from Europe, and very few people will have money to spend on a trip for a modeling convention. Probably setting my sights on Reno...fingers crossed.

Well I have to inform you all that I was looking forward to seeing  once again, but unfortunately with so many restrictions about non essential travel, and 14 days of Quarantine  when arriving at the destination yada  yada yada.......I HAD to cancel MY reservation at the hotel.

:rtfm:  yeah I know the Rulz!

So  Did that early this morning .... did not want to but had to stay healthy .

:admin:  of sorts !!

So old friends Sorry... maybe see you in not so distant future.

 

Please those that do go, healthy or with amy underlying health conditions DO TAKE CARE  and stay safe and well.:respect:

Maru I’m gonna miss seeing you, but next time!!  
 

I’m not holding out much hope over it working out well.  It might turn out to be the best attended regional show in quite awhile, but nowhere near last year in Chattanooga. 
I’ll drive down for a day or two but I’m not thinking I’ll do all week.

Yea, I cancelled my hotel reservation a few weeks back.  I won't be attending either and Vegas won't work for me.  I'm frustrated that the one Nationals I could have gone to was screwed up by this fiasco.   Maybe in another couple years it'll swing back this way.....
