Oct. 8. Rain and more rain, the weather dudes say, so that means cancellations: No partying like its 1599 at the Renaissance Festival today, but it will reopen Sunday. The Social Sail at Lake Norman Community Sailing has been blown out. Pawz Too Run is a firm “No.” The Cornelius Police Department’s Document Shredding got a pink slip for today; it’s been moved to Nov. 12. The Davidson Farmer’s Market has been canned as well. The National Weather Service is calling for showers, mainly before 3 pm. Patchy fog before 11 am. High near 72. Breezy, with a north northeast wind 14 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 32 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80 percent, but only about an inch of rain is expected.
