    I might be in for that, I’m flying up to RHI that day and it’s close-ish to on the way.

    I would vote lunch. It’s unlikely I’d make breakfast unless it was a really late one.

    Sounds like I'm out. I wouldve only been in for breakfast and my dad and son want to go running in the morning.

    I would love to join you, but widespread showers and well-below normal temperatures as an upper low interacts with a coastal low will move over the Carolinas through Monday. The coastal low will linger over my area and keep the weather wet and breezy. Low clouds will linger through the night. The center of the closed upper low should be centered over the Carolinas. The surface low riding underneath will gradually dissipate during the day Monday as it meanders over the eastern Carolinas. With lingering available moisture from this system and good upper dynamics, I expect scattered showers and a few thunderstorms to be possible. In this case, support for daily showers and thunderstorms will remain in the forecast through the end of the short-term.

    Also, I’m out of town.

    So it's looking like most are out? No biggie either way I'm flying tomorrow just wondering if we need to rush out the door to make a meetup halfway or not. I'll also be flying home next Sat so there's that...

    Looks like they have some closures for runway/taxi, plus @eman1200 will be out of town.

    What you need good sir, is a boat. Then you too can use this word on occasion!

    Yes, the north-south runway is being redone to address visibility issues.

    13-31 is the only open runway, the parallel taxiway is open. Guess I have no excuse to miss this one :p
