Florida Spring Training 2018 - Day 44

Baseball today was under a forecast of heavy thunderstorms and possible tornado warnings. Another cold front was coming in from the NW with a bunch of weather associated with it.

The game started under cloudy skies with the threat of rain.  The ground crew even had the tarp positined to put on the field.  The game started at 1:05 pm and moved along pretty well, but the rain and wind came in at the 7th inning and the game was stopped.  As it is spring training, they didn't wait until the rain moved on but rather just stopped the game at that point.  It was actually a pretty good game for the Phillies and they recorded an abbreviated 2-0 win.

Things were OK back at the RV park as most of the heavy weather went either north or south, although the park got a pretty good soaking.  By dinner time, the skies cleared, the wind picked up and the temperature dropped as the front moved through.  We are in for a few more days of cool and breezy weather and then it looks like Florida summer will start to kick-in next week. 

We are "off" tomorrow and plan to do some sightseeing.  There are three more games before we break camp on March 29th and begin our journey home.
