My latest #Indy500 take: storm chance remains for Sunday..my best guess for now is as early as 2pm, late as 6pm..but timing not set. Also wondering if there isn’t a brief impulse that comes thru Sun morning with a shower..worth at least a mention but will see if it shows up in the overnight data

So given they had decent downpours I’d call it 2 hours dry time from now (if they’ve even started)…the issue is gonna be what arrives within/after that time period which is gonna reset any drying that’s accomplished…radar looked like maybe a gap would develop…but filling in now

Here’s where I’m at with the weekend forecast..timing is not as straight-forward as today’s rain as it’s a different set-up..bottom-line there’s a rain chance at any time Sat..but think most likely mid-morning to early afternoon. Outside of early AM storm, Sunday looks ok…tho hot and humid.

Initial #Indy500 practice/quals forecast: Tue looks good..then rain overnight..so possible drying needed Wed AM, but rest of day is dry. Thu dry. Fri and beyond almost certain to change this far out…but long-range suggests rain chances are late Fri/early Sat and then Sun PM…for now

With Caio Collet now signed with AJ Foyt Racing, that leaves just one seat at Dale Coyne Racing, and the unconfirmed third seat at Rahal Letterman Lanigan left to fill.
Yes, there is also uncertainty with Prema, but "officially" they have confirmed Callum Ilott and Robert Shwartzman.

Today's random find: Someone named "smokescreen" drove the Markham, ON INDYCAR layout.
Don't know this person, but the video gives a good idea of what the track looks like today as Enterprise Blvd, Parking lots and service roads around York University Markham.

Early look at the #MilwaukeeMile forecast: some rain to start the week then a shift to a drier pattern by Wed. Keeping an eye on a weak front late Friday with some potential showers…but for now Sat-Sun looks dry with great temps #IndyCar

I really don’t have any major changes to this forecast…only potential impact is possible low ceilings/visibility in morning…maybe some patchy light mist/drizzle in spots. Temps remain mild throughout. Winds should pick up each afternoon. #IndyCar
Here’s the Laguna Seca forecast for #IndyCar this weekend: no surprises in this one. 50s to mid-60s. Breezy in afternoon. Only potential impact is extent of low-level marine layer clouds in early AM..could get slight delay to early sessions (i.e. prac 2, warm-up), if conditions are right.

Friday #IndyTO weather brief: great conditions today..north wind this morning but should get a weak lake breeze by #IndyCar practice this afternoon. Sat looks good too. Still keeping an eye on next rain chance late Sat, but for now looks like everything departs by early Sun morning.
