    Still no rain. This is strange weather. Reminds me of when I lived in buffalo and bills would be getting hammered with snow and it was great outside my window.

    Judging by the radar, it doesn't look promising for an 11am start today.

    yisman.....no sir it is not. I'm watching the courts live, and they are getting things set. No tarps on court, we are ready to roll.

    No rain in manhattan. Was pissing down with rain all night and this morning though. Skies look confused. Feels like england type weather. Forecast agrees 50% precipitation possibilty all day.

    You're probably looking at a noon start at the earliest. At least an hour delay from the usual 11 AM.

    It's still raining, like I said.

    noon start overly optimistic. Hard to say exactly when they'll start but I'm pretty sure it won't be in the next hour.

    Sharapova and Bartoli were warming up and had to leave the court again. They must be getting pissed.

    I asked the same question yesterday. Apparently, humidity issues with hard court. Also, the fact that there are the drying machines that aren't an option on clay or grass.
