[RC] Owyhee weather - steph teeter

Weather forecast for the Owyhee rides is looking pretty good. Several
people have asked me about the longrange forecast - for the Canyonlands
ride next week. The best (most accurate) forecast is at the NOAA website
- http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/boi/ (select Caldwell on the map or type in
Murphy, ID). 

Other websites have different forecasts - www.weather.com (the optimist)
and www.accuweather.com (the pessimist) have very different longrange
forecasts. If you use accuweather.com it's better to search for Nampa,
Idaho - the Murphy, Idaho forecast (which should be the same as Nampa)
looks like it's giving a forecast for the mountains rather than the
valley. 

There is some chance of rain in the forecast next week - which would be
very very good as it's quite dusty out on the trail right now. Also -
bring bugspray - we've had gnats this past week with the warm weather.
