Hurricane Free Electric Daisy Carnival 2012

Just checked the National hurricane Center and to my surprise, there is another tropical storm  in the Atlantic.  But, we are in luck because it's following Michael and Leslie up into the middle of the Atlantic.  Wheesh!

So that means, that we are still all systems go for Operation BassDrop, otherwise known as the Electric Daisy Carnival.  Don't miss the crazy vibe, this Saturday at the Panamerican Pier Complex in Miramar.  Looking at the weather, the north bound Nadine might keep the weather stable.  The predictions are for 20% chance of rain for EDC on Saturday/Sunday.  Come to think of it though, I don't the chance of rain in Puerto Rico is ever 0%, it's the tropics for crying out loud!
