Am I reading this right? A lot of rain on May 6, none on May 8?

Maybe that is what has never happened before in all the Bach FRC's.

Wasn't it determined FRC was 6th not 8th because of the tweets?

L&S says May 6, RS says May 8.

I think the picture of Chris in the limo looks overcast.

I feel like I am talking to myself!

The day of the last 12 months with the lowest average visibility was May 6, with an average visibility of 5.7 miles. The month with the lowest average visibility was May, with an average visibility of 6.2 miles. With an average visibility of 10.5 miles, the month of November had the highest average visibility.

So nutty, are you saying you think the FRC is the 6th because the picture of Chris in the limo is cloudy? Sorry...I'm not following.

Actually Bee, would they have a FRC on a day with very poor visibility and higher than normal rainfall? It rained almost 3 inches that day. (May 6). Could RS' date of May 8 be correct? There was no rain that day.

I'm sitting here wondering if the May 6th FRC was washed out by a torrent of rain, thus circumstances beyond their control and having to move it to May 8th so I may not be following either.

nutty, you're not talking to yourself here... I've been checking weather reports  
I have no reason not to believe these reports of dismal weather (totally unexpected for the crew), and the FRC was put off from the planned day of May 6 until the next clear day May 8.  is this something that has never happened before? totally out of left field? does it affect everything? not one person would have been unscathed.  if the date was not held back, they all either wore wet-suits or carried big umbrellas, or maybe they decided to have it indoors.  but then we all know that MF likes his money shot of the sun setting as the proposal takes place.  position of the sun in the limo ride often confirms F1.

great job on this... completely changes the schedule in my eyes.  a few more days to get where I know I want to be for all parties involved.

It could specially if there is heavy rain ! What have a proposal with the lead dripping wet ???

However, wasn't CH allegedly on a plane on the 7th ? Thats what is confusing.

Love this...it ends up being the weather that is the unexpected event. They would not have the FRC on a day with 3 inches of rain and would postpone it to a day with a view they were looking for.  Great job for figuring this out!

The sighting of CH wasn't 100% definitive. Doesn't mean it didn't happen though.

True, the person tweeted CH asking if that was him. And if it was, would it be totally weird if CH wasn't there on the day of the FRC? That perhaps due to circumstances beyond his control he had to leave and could not have anticipated that all wouldn't end on May 6th?
