weather late this week in SD

just wondering...i keep on looking on weather channel and it doesnt look all that great.

I never know if i sould believe them or not as i know they sometimes predict t'storms...but it might rain for five or ten mins.

I have never traveled this time of year tho...and i know its hurricane and rainy season.

I could easily postpone my trip...just wondering if anyone can give me an update over the next couple of days.

thanks BB...i am pretty sure i will be there this weekend. Not worried about hurricanes...but more about rainy weather and t'storms.

I went to 14th street the other day....and the spanish bookstore was closed. went to Barnes & Nobles (the smallish one on 8th street) and wasnt wowed by the esl section. My friend does not have a cd player...and the only decent books came with cd's...perhaps i will buy a small cd player.


I am pretty sure i wlll be there this weekend. THe job search is dismal right now...and i just want to be sitting in the DR in my friends yard and away from the stress and worries of my life in nyc.

Oh...btw..that better be a presidente grande! lol.

Will you be going to the South Shore? Or will you be traveling up NOrth as well?
Wish I could get to the Strand Bookstore. That place is an expensive heaven to me!!! And the books are cheap!, My problem is I want them all!

Do not sweat the weather....nothing bad will happen this long weekend. It's gonna be my birthday, after all, and I talked to the Man Upstairs.....

I'll be on the south...dont have the time to travel north as i am only going for five days: a couple of days in BC...a couple of days in SD and then a day or so back on the beach....then HOME (booo hoo hooo)

ok...less than 24 hrs to go! any REALISTIC weather reports for SD for the next 5 days????? i keep on checking out weatherchanel.com and cnn's weather and they both predict t'stoms and lotsa clouds. now i KNOW they are never too accurate...i have seen rain predicted on past trips but barely saw a drop.

the weather here in NYC is gonna be really nice this weekend...so perhaps i might postpone. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. i just want lotsa sun for this short trip!

yup..i know BB...thats why i came here and asked. I have never worried durring my winter trips even when the weather channels predict cloudy and rain...and only one year it was overcast most of the time (we still had fun). I just dont want to get stuck in my hotel room for five days.

I have been agonizing about going since i booked my flight (many other reasons besides the weather)...i.e., i got laid off in april and there aint a job in site :-( but then i fear when i DO find a job that i wont be taking two week long trips in feb/march...so i should travel now.

and oh...the weather here in nyc is amazing right now. low 80's and nearly 90 on saturday (one last beach day here).

well..i DID do all the shopping i need done today....just need to desperately do laundry tonight.

THe one thing i worry about is traveling and just bringing my worries with me...i have been totaly miserable about the job thing for the past week or so.

well...so far i have NOT cancelled. I just gotta see if my neighbor will feed my cat.

one thing i know...is that i WONT oversleep like SOMEONE i know (lol).

geesh!!! cant believe i was so worried!

when i flew in there were some major cloud on the north side of the island....but in the south it was sunny most of the time...one day with puffy clouds (sorta a relief with the heat)...and one heavy shower at night.

over the six days there were thunderstorms to the east and west, but mainly inland...and while there were many clouds looming inland...the sun was strong and sunny nearly the entire time i was there.

had a friggen blast! almost decided to extend my stay...but i figured i had to get back to reality eventualy. i'll try to post a quick trip report soon.
