Here's the forecast for that day. 90% chance of not being a dry day.

4 hr drive for me and it's rained every year I've been-and still worth it....although if it snowed I'd rethink. 10% chance of NO rain!?! I'll be there.

I've been going for many years now. To be fair it does not rain every event, just 9 out of 10 events.

The bad thing about the rain is a lot of really nice cars stay away. The good thing about the rain is vendors usually get fed up and you can score some very good bargains.

Don't forget, they moved the event to a week later this year just to ward off the demons that make it rain every year!

I think it's worth it regardless of the weather. It's a little over 3 hours for me, too.

Five hours for me but would be cool to have a caravan going from the east.

I'm in central jersey. Any caravans going from nearby? Haven't been to the swap meet before but it sounds like fun.

Q.

We had a great group from the Philadelphia/Lancaster area for the fall run last year, hopefully we'll get together for the meet!

Hey Mike,

That's a great idea for the Philly/Hbg/Lanc group. That would be a good post in the Mid Atlantic forum so we can coordinate.
