Hi everyone!

We are in the process of installing a paver walkway/patio and we just
finished laying the 1" of sand and plan on screeding it in the morning.
Just saw the weather report and they've changed it and now are
calling for some rain overnight.


How will "wet" sand affect our paver job? I was under the impression that
it needed to be dry sand, and just wanted to make sure this isn't going to
mess everything up.


Thanks in advance for advice!

PS. we are following this project plan:

It should be perfectly fine. If you have a hard rain you may need to add a
little more sand to the pad that may have been washed / splashed out.
Either way re-check your grade before you lay your stone. Enjoy your new
patio.
