Storm is really picking up here. Power can’t be long behind, it’s on a hair trigger due to jerks not trimming their trees. This storm has got to hit Chicago, and it’ll be rough when it does. Sox better hold the lead.

time of delay pool?
or does time of game restart make more sense?

9:49.
sunshiney craig's comment about me has had the effect of rendering me too self conscious to maintain my public exhibition of ennui.
I am going an hour later because futurecast says 10:30 the rain will finally be out of Chicago
and they probably won’t restart until all the rain has passed just in case. Add about 20 or 30 minutes to when the rain stops and that is when the game will start usually. Hopefully it is a quicker moving storm than the Weather Channel is saying though.
my problem is it looks like there's a kind of "tail" on the storm
that is west and south. if it goes over the cell i think the delay may be longer, but i’ve made my guess.
