Steady rain all day and a forecast that it would continue past 6pm meant today's match was cancelled at about midday. Even though there was some chance that things would fine up and get a game, it seemed worth taking this small risk for the guaranteed return of avoiding wasted trips.
As can be inferred from the plot below, we almost certainly made the right decision today - there was steady rain in Cambridge all the way through 'til about 8pm. But if you have any thoughts about this somewhat pre-emptive policy, please contact Daniel.
