I would visit Dordrecht for such a plan.
The weather forecast certainly allows for it.

Another thought

If tomorrow weather forecast remains bad and we cancel (probability of that seems high) we will move the meeting to oktober 24 (as agreed before)

But in addition we could meet with those who feel like it around 15:00, have coffee/tea/other and by the time it's dry (probably around 15:30/16:00) we go out and do a late afternoon stroll, have dinner and afterwards do some evening/night shots in the harbour area.
Might be too late for people who have to work the next day but in case there's a few others interested in such a plan I would drive to Dordrecht for this.

This would be in addition to oktober 24, not instead of, and would only be if we have to cancel the normal meeting tomorrow.

Let's look tomorrow around noon and take a final decision then. Prediction for sunday has been up and down all week so it might look better again tomorrow. But if it remains "as is" I agree it's better to postpone until the 24th.

So "watch this space"

Weeronline predicts 21.8 mm rain on Sunday. Buienradar gives reasons for hope after 16:00, before that 1-2 mm/hr of rain. In my opinion it is not worth it.

Weatherforecast isn't very hopefull. Long period of rain during daytime. What to do?

The rendez-vous adres is fine for me.

Hope te see you all coming sunday!

Copy-past from Pieters message.

I suggest we meet between 10:30 and 11:00 in "Dordts Genoegen", Voorstraat 256, 3311 ET Dordrecht for coffee (and cake), that's nice and central for starting our walk. But if there are other ideas on that just post them here, these are just suggestions to get the discussion going.

Currently Buienradar gives most rain in the early morning with even some sun in the afternoon with only one occasional shower. Let's keep our fingers crossed it remains that way.
