There is also a chance of rain showers tomorrow in the foothills. If it looks like significant rain tomorrow, or we hit rain on the way to Jackson, we are turning back. We are not clothing equipped to handle much rain. If we are not at Starbucks by the appointed time (10:00) don't wait for us.
I will look outside and check the weather in the morning and make my decision then.
Yeah....this is looking doubtful for going to the high country. Never-the-less, my intention is to be in Jackson at the appointed time and make a group decision. There are enough lovely roads North and South from there....heck, we could make a Southern loop (say...to San Andreas, R onPoole Station to Hwy 4 West thru Angels Camp to Murphys, down Old Murphys Grade and North on 49 to Jackson) and come back to Mel's for lunch, then head on a Northerly route and break off from points above...Placerville or even Auburn.
That way, should it really begin to storm, nobody is extremely far from home....except Steve and Cindy...but I have a guest room.
