To be fair they have communicated really well this week. There wasn’t anything significant on the radar after Storm Chandra and the track was raceable Wednesday. There was every reason to be optimistic. Then this other system pops up and they warned the public any significant rainfall would be a sting in the tail.
The problem is that it wasn’t definitely going to hit them, it was a twirly whirly weather platter skirting the edge of Ireland and buggering off again.
The track was raceable again Friday afternoon, it would be very silly to abandon Saturday at that point and then only get a mil or two overnight.
