A couple of Observations:

1. The LR-WX is really only much use for around 3-4 days ahead in general terms. It's surprisingly accurate for a 48-72 hour period. So really, you won't be making a call on this until Thursday/Friday at the earliest.

2. It's REALLY bad luck to talk about wanting good weather for an event
