So is this a go tonight? If so, I've got mapquest directions printed out and I'm ready to go. I'm not missing out on another event because I can't find it!

I'm guessing it's a no......

Issued by The National Weather Service
Austin/San Antonio, TX
10:13 am CDT, Fri., Sep. 11, 2009

... FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO HAS ISSUED A

* FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR A PORTION OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS... INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING COUNTIES... ATASCOSA... BANDERA... BASTROP... BEXAR... BLANCO... BURNET... CALDWELL... COMAL... DEWITT... FAYETTE... FRIO... GILLESPIE... GONZALES... GUADALUPE... HAYS... KARNES... KENDALL... KERR... LAVACA... LEE... LLANO... MEDINA... REAL... TRAVIS... UVALDE... WILLIAMSON AND WILSON.

* THROUGH THIS EVENING

* SATURATED SOILS FROM RECENT RAINS WILL COMBINE WITH AN ADDITIONAL 2 TO 4 INCHES OF RAIN POSSIBLE OVER THE WATCH AREA TODAY AND EARLY THIS EVENING. THE HIGHEST RAIN POTENTIAL IS EXPECTED OVER THE EASTERN HILL COUNTRY AND AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF I-35. THE CHANCE OF RAIN SHOULD DECREASE LATE TONIGHT... BUT COULD INCREASE AGAIN BY EARLY SATURDAY MORNING.

* SO FAR... THE ONGOING DROUGHT CONDITIONS HAVE LIMITED THE AMOUNT OF FLOODING TO SMALLER STREAMS... NORMALLY DRY WASHES. HOWEVER... THE FLASH FLOODING THAT CAN OCCUR OVER LOW WATER CROSSINGS CAN BE JUST AS DANGEROUS. CONTINUED RAINS OVER THE SAME AREAS COULD EVENTUALLY FILL LARGER STREAMS AND RIVERS.

I've noticed that a true benefit to the Evo compared to all-motor Honda's with cold air intakes that sit low in the bumper area is that there is no real worry about hydrolock. And if you get water sucked into the intake with an Evo, that means your whole car is probably being pushed downstream anyway, so who cares if the engine hydrolocks since the car is almost surely going to be written off by insurance anyway.

OK, no problem. Please let me know if it's a go though.

How is HIN down here? I'm thinking about it. I've been to HIN in Seattle twice, and enjoyed it both times. Looks like this one will be pretty cool with all of the extra events they've got going on as part of the "Rivalry Nights" thing.

Yeah, I was surprised to see that there's an event in Austin this month and then another one in Dallas next month. I was lucky to see one a year in the Northwest when I lived up there, so this is new territory for me. I think I'm leaning towards going at this point. Probably won't make it out of SA until 6 at the soonest though, so we'll see.
