does anyone know of a good website for finding out about local weather anywhere in the U.S.? I'm going to Indianapolis (for the race) this week and I understand that in general, Indianapolis can be quite warm or even kind of chilly Memorial Day weekend. I'm leaving day after tomorrow, so I want to check tomorrow before I pack.

Thanks!

Thanks, Tomboudreau. Are you a Cajun?

No. I'm not Cajun. I'm actually from New England, but now live in the Pittsburgh area. I've been asked if I was Cajun many times.

Oh...and I'm super jealous of you. I have always wanted to go to Indy to see the race. I use to sit down and watch the 500 every year when I was growing up. My parents knew not to bother me while the race was on. I remember the great battles between Emeo, Rick Mears, Danny Sullivan, Bobby Rahal, Michael and Mario Andretti, Little Al, etc. Man, those were great races to watch. Now, I'm lucky to see part of the race. I'm hoping that Sunday comes and there is nothing to do so I can sit back and watch.

My dad was a big fan, but this will be my first time. I'm very excited because when I was in my twenties, I wanted to be a race car driver, but all my guy friends told me that women simply don't have the upper body strength and this year there are three female drivers! ha ha ha. :wink:
