Not too sure about Nyx Wednesday but I'm hearing if it continues to look that way Muses will be before Hermes on Friday

Hopefully the rain doesn't mess with my bourbon/melted ice ratio.

There's already 3 parades that night. Highly doubtful they move Muses to Friday.

Might be contract specific.

I would imagine that they march in the parade that is on schedule.


I think last year one parade rolled with just floats and no auxiliary units due to rain.

We have attended many Nyx and Muses parades in the rain.

Start an hour early and push back the other parades one hour. Muses rolls without marching groups and gets through quickly.

Only question is who owns what floats and do any of the krewes share some. Doesn't seem like they would.

I really don't think it takes Muses an two hours to clear out. Probably allow them an hour before or even start them at Napoleon if they think it will be an issue.
