current radar (looks like it'll pass soon). if there are any low sections of trail that collect water or if there's a legit soaking (not a downpour that runs off), that soil is nothing but unrideable peanut butter. hope it doesn't come to that for race days.
A bit of rain in the forecast for Whistler during the race window. The GFS for our area is notoriously wetter than reality, so I'll be waiting until I see it on the NAM before I believe it, but a bit of moisture looks to be in the cards. (15mm is about half an inch in freedom units)

Starting to rain
Tarmac getting slick
