Daytona International Speedway has seen that before. Since 1999, eight of its 27 summertime NASCAR Cup Series races have encountered delays, abbreviations or postponements related to uncooperative skies.
But there are still seven days for that forecast to change, and even when the green flag arrives at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 29, the actual result remains unpredictable. Here’s AccuWeather’s projection, as of Aug. 22.
