Gameday Weather

[FoolishFellow]

Anyone else worried about the weather tomorrow? It looks like there is supposed to be scattered t-storms.

 

[TheManTheMyth]

Nope.

worry about rain? worry?

I think we'll have footballs, with running footballs, followed by flying footballs.

 

[HandsyHobo]

The weather will be fine. More than anything, I'm worried about alumni getting into the game with their brother's tickets. That's a dangerous precedent.

Have fun!

There's only a 50% chance of rain, but a 100% chance of beer.

 

[Saginawbay]

Not worried.

 

[Garandx]

I am. Regional radar has shown a noted increase in convection along interstate 80 for the past couple hours, scattered convection also continues to develop in western Iowa and slowly rolls east. There is a slight risk for severe today with Hail and Wind being the main threat.

IF weather IS an issue against Tenn Tech, then we, my friends, are gonna have a LONG season.

I highly doubt that is what people are referring too Cibula. Iowa could handle Tenn Tech quite easily today and your long season reference could still be in play.

Storms rolling in now.

 

[GhostofBTT]

I would say the heat and the humidity would be the bigger fear than some rain.

 

[ColumbusHawk]

If thunderstorms roll into the Iowa City area during the game, there will be a rain delay until the storms clear the area. Plus, a power outage would really screw up everything.

They're worried that their hair will get wet.

Unless your The Wicked Witch of the West a little rain won't hurt you.

Dark clouds and thunder/lightning west of town. I'm ready with my raincoat.

 

[Garandx]

Storms building quite nicely now into western Johnson county.

I just did a radar "next 4 hours" preview on weather channel and it shows no precip 11am-2pm. Much of this should go NE of us by game time it appears.

That next 4 hour weather preview by the TWC is 100% accurate, I just love that.

Inhope so. Rain is fine. I don't want lightning to delay the game.
