    The long term forecast for that weekend is for thunderstorms Friday, 5-18 (80%); scattered thunderstorms Saturday, 5-19 (40%); and scattered thunderstorms for Sunday, 5-20 (50%). Just remember this is OHIO, the forecast will probably change 5 or more times prior to the 11th ONSW. We are just north of I-70 which is also a dividing line, some storms go to the south of I-70, other go north of I-70, very few are on both sides of I-70. Right now there are 55 tables of merchandise at the show from 20 vendors. Should be a great selection of new and prior owned items. See you there, if you remember say HELLO to me at the registration table, Big Guy in an ONSW polo shirt and hat. later, Craig

    Just to show how weather forecast changes, same weather site at 9:31pm, ten hours later; Friday, 5-18, scattered thunderstorms (60%), Saturday 5-19, isolated thunderstorms (30%) and Sunday, partly cloudy, 20% chance of rain. if you really have some time to kill google the difference between scattered and isolated thunderstorms.

    This is a great show. Sorry I won't be there, but Kay is finishing up radiation treatments for cancer down in Birmingham AL. I had planned on it, as part of a long car-tour through Ohio up to Vermont and then Boston, but illnesses on both ends stopped that.
