Oh dear. Another flashaholic could not make it for this outing. Triode will only be back in Singapore tomorow, he should be too tired to joing us.
Weather forecast rain for tomorrow evening till 9pm. This comming Saturday weather forecast also don't look good.
How about postponing the outing to next Sat 18th May ?
My apologies as Triode SMSed me on Wednesday but I failed to post his response here. Sorry again guys.
I actually have a friend who would like to come tomorrow night, so there could be anywhere from 5 to 7 of us IF we take the risk on the weather. About the weather though, I've been using this webpage from NEA:

I usually look at the 3 hour "nowcast", 12 hour forecast and 3 day outlook depending on plans of course. My past experience has been that it's around 60%-70% accurate. That's not fantastic odds, but if you want to chance it, the outlook on Friday looks alright for a night or evening gathering. I've been looking at Friday's outlook since Wednesday and it's varied from "Thundery showers over many areas in the morning" to at worst "Thundery showers in the morning and early afternoon".
The outlook for May as a whole or fortnightly outlook is:
http://app2.nea.gov.sg/fortnightly_outlook.aspx April has had rain mostly away from the central areas [where the reservoirs are] but this week's rains have not followed that trend.
Anyway, all said and done, [I hope you enjoyed visiting and browsing the website -I like charts and pictures
], I too would support that we postpone the outing to Saturday the 18th.
