They are cancelled. Too many shoots to handle weather situations unfortunately. Tiny shoots could likely find shelter but big ones (Overwatch) are SOL. direkitty, is it up to you (being the photoshoots organizer) or the specific photoshoot leader to cancel a shoot due to potential weather circumstances? And how would that message be relayed? This is my first time running a photoshoot and I'm really hoping I won't have to call it because of rain ;-; Is there anything we can do about being rained out? I can't remember if we were allowed to move them indoors to certain areas (to not block traffic since everyone will be inside) or if we just have to cancel and go do something else. Like Direkitty said, they're assumed cancelled, but last year the Voltron Saturday shoot just moved to the back of the Delta hotel near the back entrance where there was a cover Also I'm hoping that the rain is only for a short bit. I think two years ago it was supposed to rain all weekend, but it rained for like 5 minutes really hard at 2pm friday then it was a heatwave (which isn't desirable) Yes, assumed cancelled if it's raining. Some areas (DT1/DT2) have some sheltered areas, TCC4 could shuffle under the main entrance of the TCC if its a small shoot. Up the the organizer if they have a tiny shoot and want to move it.

Okay thank you direkitty, I just wanted to make sure of what the protocol was. & I’d honestly prefer some heat over rain I think, as long as everyone takes precaution & has lots of water!

Well, at least Friday and Saturday's forecasts have improved a little. Rain getting itself out of the way when there's no shoots happening, cooler-feeling weather on Saturday, and both days have more clouds and WAY less UV. Let's hope it stays at least similar to that if it doesn't get even better. I just hope "evening" doesn't include 6pm, cause that would mean Saturday's Homestuck shoot is almost certain to be rained on. I'm baffled by the fact that Sunday's forecast STILL calls for extreme levels of UV though. Like, literally, AccuWeather's term for a UV index of 10 is "Extreme".

Between this and The Weather Network predicting "feels like" temperatures as high as 33 on Saturday {ie. the day everyone is outside the most and on a personal note the day I'm hosting my shoot at the peak hours of the awful conditions I can barely function in}, I get the feeling someone somewhere doesn't want us to be happy.

Thursday Day: Mostly sunny, 28, feels like 30, 0% chance of rain, max UV index 9, 13 kph southwest wind with 24 kph gusts Night: Clear, 16, feels like 14, 0% chance of rain, 16 kph west wind with 24 kph gusts
Friday Day: Partly sunny with the temperature approaching the record of 31 set in 2012, 30, feels like 31, 9% chance of rain, 1% chance of thunderstorms, max UV index 9, 22 kph southwest wind with 30 kph gusts Night: Mostly clear, 18, feels like 17, 5% chance of rain, 2% chance of thunderstorms, 17 kph southwest winds with 24 kph gusts
Saturday Day: Sun and some clouds with a brief thunderstorm in the afternoon, 29, feels like 32, 51% chance of rain, 60% chance of thunderstorms, 1mm of rain over half an hour, max UV index 9, 15 kph southwest wind with 22 kph gusts Night: A thunderstorm in one or two spots in the evening, otherwise partly cloudy, 16, feels like 15, 50% chance of rain, 60% chance of thunderstorms, 3mm of rain over 2 hours, 11 kph southwest winds with 24 kph gusts
Sunday Day: Sunshine and patchy clouds, 25, feels like 28, 25% chance of rain, 24% chance of thunderstorms, max UV index 10, 15 kph southwest wind with 24 kph gusts Night: Low clouds, 15, feels like 14, 25% chance of rain, 24% chance of thunderstorms, 13 kph northeast winds with 24 kph gusts
So, let's recap: Record-breaking heat, disgusting humidity, hazardous UV levels, high potential for outdoor events to get rained on and cancelled {not that I'll even feel like doing my photoshoots or even cosplaying at all in these conditions}, and all the cool winds saving themselves for after the con's over. And given the trend over the past 32 hours, it's only going to get worse the closer we get to the weekend. If I didn't know better, I'd be calling off my entire trip right now, cause this is absolutely not weather I can enjoy myself, function properly or not be drenched in stinking sweat within seconds of stepping outside in... ;w;
