Latest forecast models indicate that it may be good for HGers but waiting for the Wednesday updates.

Will check conditions tomorrow morning. The current NOAA weather map argues that tomorrow afternoon may be less than ideal.

Still less than ideal forecasts. NOAA now has the frontal line (at 18Z) just north of the Pulpit with the T-storm warning box covering most of PA. So I'm out.
