CAA - Convoy/Caravan
 
This thread is for the various groups to begin posting where, who, and when everybody plans to start making their way across the country. Why so early? Because many people are waiting on others to decide when they are arriving and what they are going to be doing. Eventually I will create a thread showing who is doing what.

DIRECTIONS: Post a reply (not a quote) stating the region and location where you are departing and the date of departure and primary route.

Someone from the moderators group will move your information under the region below you indicate.
Your post will then be hidden/deleted so this won't become a multi-page thread.

Won't do you much good while driving, but Intellicast has a pretty good tracking site.

Storm track - use the overlays pull down to see the Titan Storm Tracker

Forecast - so far Monday and Tuesday look good.


Also, I cleaned up the thread a bit.

Just a heads up be careful on the final stretch to the hotel (Earth City Expressway), the cops like to target that area with the concerts next door and or drunks...so those who like to drive a little aggressively get picked on equally.
