Add one for you:

People are complaining because they have to monitor a major database install this weekend instead of skiing awesome early-season conditions at the Basin and Loveland.

To stay on-topic - I have a mid-day Sat flight out of DEN, but I can't be in transit to DEN anytime during the Fri noon-Sat early AM period, so I have to head down the hill to my park-n-fly HGI stay. Yet it the WX is right (and yes, I agree about the upthread 9News comment), with snow through Thurs PM and up to 3ft east of the Divide and some cases of 4ft, I-70 could be a mess.

So I could really use a weather waiver. I'm hoping they extend it but not expecting it. Back when I was a humble 1P a few years ago, I got them to give me a "one-time exception" in a similar situation, but I'm not counting on it. Booked an 11/4 award saver with a dummy return just in case.

Although it would be a shame if I don't fly Saturday, the install goes well so nothing to do Sunday...
