Ominous weather forecast for 2018 Duo Normand

Team Grumpy has been anxiously monitoring the weather forecast for Sunday 23rd September (Duo Normand day), via the very excellent XCWeather website. There's a spot of decidedly awful weather blowing in for the day of the race - see this screenshot:

It is possible that in the next four days, this forecast will improve, but frankly I doubt it. Team Grumpy will be packing spare road wheels in case this weather materialises. The team's start time has been confirmed as 10.32am, but actually the strong gusts will affect the whole field.
