2010 air showDespite the rain and wind along New Jersey’s southeast shore, the 2010 Atlantic City Air Show will go on as planed tomorrow, August 25th, unless visibility gets so low that pilots are in danger. Rain and wind has been ripping through the region, prompting many show goers to question if the air show will be canceled. Today the pilots were out there practicing their runs despite the weather.

The Atlantic City air show is in it’s eighth consecutive year, and has yet to be canceled. If the show is canceled altogether, which officials do not see happening, it would not be made up at a later date since most of the participants have full schedules. Officials have said though that certain parts of the show may have to be canceled if the weather continues like it is today. Particularly the parachuting segment, in which winds can really cause issues for the divers.

The Air show is celebrating the 100th year since the very first Atlantic City show. “It’s a highlight of summer because it’s a free event and families looking for that last activity before the kids go back to school can come out and enjoy all the airshow offers,” said Joseph Kelly, who is the president of the Greater Atlantic City Chamber of Commerce.
