It must be time for a 2018 Weather Thread, covering both the 24hrs and the Classic

You must not have been in the same place I was on Tuesday night. We had five minutes of rain at the second chicane. Which dried up in seconds.

This is the first year I can remember (since 2004) when we had to ask for the big camp water tank to be refilled on Mad Friday. The water level got down to critical by the end of the race 2011, but we've never run right out before. And do not get me started on the state of the portapotties. I'm not sure what bright light in the ACO decided that two would be plenty for 35 commissaires and their guests for a week.
