FORECAST UPDATE THURSDAY 4 AM ET:
Rain is not a sure thing this weekend but it is very possible at Phoenix International Raceway this weekend. Storm system will move off the Pacific across the Baja Peninsula and northern Mexico later this weekend. The good news is this storm looks to stay to the south so it won’t be a strong storm for Arizona. The bad news is it allows for sub-tropical moisture to be pulled north by this storm increasing the threat of rain Saturday night into Sunday.

Models right now are not in agreement on what to do with the moisture and possible showers. One forecast model keeps the bulk of the energy and showers to the south along the Arizona/ Mexico border. Another has lot of moisture across the state Saturday into Sunday. At this point I am not thinking a washout, but expect the forecast to change as better information becomes available. If you’re planning on going to the race I’d plan on the possibility of showers, maybe have a backup plan (just in case), but overall I am thinking (as of now) we get this race in on Sunday.
