Your weather service is lying to you ,Ruff. Rain likelihood in Tampa is 15% at least through Thursday. That means 85% chance of partly cloudy skies. I use national weather service.

WHEN I CHECKED THE TAMPA AREA   VIA 'WUNDERGROUND' + RACE TRACK WEATHER
    {TYPING ON SUNDAY}  FOR: WEATHER: TAMPA FOR WEDNESDAY
                            RAIN LIKELY SAME FOR GULFSTREAM
                                    SAME FOR SAM HOUSTON

WEATHER FORECASTING IS THE ONLY OCCUPATION
WHERE THEY CAN BE WRONG 80% OF THE TIME
                     AND NOT GET FIRED!
                             

PLUS: OUT OF THE LAST 5 MIDWEEK MAYHEMS TRACKS

"...Had my rain gear ready and you pulled a fast one. A fast track for a change."

                        Glad to see some are OK with the Choice 

AM SO SORRY THAT NOT EVERYONE IS "PLEASED" WITH THE CHOICE   
                             {{ Personally....Neither Am I }}

                YA CAN'T PLEASE ALL THE PEEPS ALL THE TIME ~
                                   BUT I SURE DO TRY!
                                   

I felt compelled to review the tracks I really wanted Future weather forecast

                          My first intention was SAM HOUSTON

When I checked Tracks Weather on Sunday because I needed to post the venue
       Most future forecasts indicated rain or snow mix for Northern Tracks
                                                   

Rain for Tampa even though we have played there are three out of five times + Rain at GP
                 {** Per EP Post: That Forecast Changed = But I Never Knew}

I felt I was living that expression "Between A Rock And a Hard place"
                                           

  Additionally, not  that many tracks  Running on Wednesday = Limiting Choices

So my heartfelt  apology to all who are not happy with the choice   
I will send you Colossal Colorado Catnip  to make your day a bit brighter
