Quick Weather report (FINAL UPDATE)

It's raining in Clinton, Iowa. The tarp is on the field.

The rain is just a slight drizzle right now, but if you look at the radar here, there is a blob of green with some yellow in it.

Plus, I'm not a weatherman, but is it good when the weather is coming back at you from the Southeast?

I'll post updates as they come along, but right now the best course of action is to be ready to have the game.

UPDATE: 11:00am
Yeah, um, it's raining heavier now. A lot heavier. Radio broadcaster heavy. I'll keep this post at the top update when I have more information.

UPDATE: 11:35am
Just got word that we are in a holding pattern. From the broadcast booth, I can see standing water on the warning track behind home plate and in front of both dugouts. More later.

UPDATE: 12:05pm
Still raining. Sounds like there should be a decision soon.

UPDATE: 12:15pm
POSTPONED. Game will be made up at Time Warner Cable Field as part of a doubleheader on Sunday, May 17. Game one starts at 1:05pm.

I'm pretty sure that this backs up the pitching rotation for the Peoria series. I'll check with the coaching staff and let you know -- if possible -- before we get on the bus home.

While i'm looking forward to a double header that Sunday...i bet the team doesn't want to wait two days now to try and get back into the win column...
