Narcowski Report post Posted February 4, 2010 Quick update: As of now, we are still planning on holding the LAN despite the forecast. That said, it's looking like it's going to be pretty nasty this weekend, so please be careful if you decide to come up. Boone forecast and weather info.

Narcowski Report post Posted February 5, 2010 The university has shut today due to weather - we have 5+ inches of new snow, sleet, and ice. As much as we want to hold our event, it just isn't possible in this weather at this point. Our next LAN will be March 27th - keep an eye out for announcements.
