Ponderosa8 1,321 Report post Posted August 31, 2018 Sorry just got back home. Yes there was definitely thunder (may have been lightning too but I didn't see it). There was a really good 30-40 minute'ish shower not too long after I posted the pic, and I see NZR website shows it was 1.5mm of rain. Hence track still shown as a Slow 8 which is a shame as it would have definitely improved from the Slow 8 this morning had it not been for that rain. Weather was back to quite nice after the rain passed through. Forecast is still Sunny and 19deg for tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponderosa8 1,321 Report post Posted August 31, 2018 Taken at 8.30am. Those darkish clouds are nothing to worry about. I heard the orchard fans running this morning, and still a bit coolish at the moment. (just 7 deg). john legend 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponderosa8 1,321 Report post Posted September 4, 2018 Lucky the 2nd day of the carnival is not this Saturday... as the Track would be a Heavy 11 and drifting. And the 10 day forecast doesn't currently include many great days so cant see it getting back to a Good/Dead Track. Might put a couple of $$ on Seventh Up at 31's and Dolcetto at 61's. Contessa Vanessa at 21`s might be a bit of value too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
