in U.S. weather forecasting, POP is the probability that more than 1/100th of an inch of precipitation will fall in a single spot, averaged over the forecast area.[1] For instance, if there is a 100% probability of rain covering one side of a city, and a 0% probability of rain on the other side of the city, the POP would be 50%. A 50% chance of a rainstorm covering the entire city would also lead to a POP of 50%.
Note that the POP measure is meaningless unless it is associated with a period of time. U.S. forecasts commonly use POP defined over 12-hour periods (POP12), though 6-hour periods (POP6) and other measures are also published.

Terms typically in weather forecasts based on POP:
0% – No mention of precipitation
10% – No mention of precipitation, or isolated/slight chance
20% – Isolated/slight chance
30% – (Widely) scattered/chance
40% or 50% – Scattered/chance
60% or 70% – Numerous/likely
80%, 90% or 100% – No additional modifiers (i.e. "showers and thunderstorms")

So, you think that it won't rain, Alan? Laughing

I plan on attending this Kayak tourment. I will not be compeating, just fishing. I hope to meet a few new Kayak fishermen and fish this new to me spot. I'm looking forward to it. -Duncan

I'll be there regardless of forecast. Rain should keep the pleasure boaters away.

I mean pleasure boaters who can potentially create an undesirable wake.

This might be a crazy request that cannot be met, but does anyone have an extra pfd that can fit a large man like myself but will not be as cumbersome as draping a small bear around your chest? I have one, but I think if I have to wear it for 6-7 hours my chances of drowning myself will be far greater than drowning from falling in without one. On an unrelated note, if I were to blow up a balloon to tie on each arm this would count as a pfd right?? Cool

Sorry, Stephan, but Ryan beat you to my spare PFD. Although even a child sized PFD would probably fit his pecless bod. . . . Laughing

Ok so everything is set RAIN OR SHINE Saturday May 11, trophies are in and please try to car pool. Remember weigh in and check in are at lower Moodus. If anyone has any extra measuring devices please bring them just in case someone does not have one or forgets. Bring a chair for afterwards if you want to stick around for the food. Any questions PM me or post them here.


As stated before RAIN or SHINE, so to answer your question YES it is still on.

I'm bringing cow for everyone to eat. If you don't eat cow, sorry. Wink

Bring drinks, though. And remember, alcoholic beverages are prohibited at the boat launch.
