Hmmm interesting trend in the modeling this morning.... Things still appear soggy for tailgating and the first half of the game. However, if reality will play along, we may have most of the second half of the football game free of rain. End of the 4th could see a flake of snow wafting through KBS. No accumulations.

***WED PM UPDATE***

This has been a beast to pin down. Exacts are not realistic in the weather world. Having said, that, and this may change... I like what we are seeing in the data and the earlier departure for the main rain hit by mid way through the first quarter; or prior. Soggy for tailgating you bet. Some powerful wind gusts possible with cells as the roll over the mountains 4-7 PM ish. So, anchor your tailgate tents if you can.

But, trends as of tonight, favor an earlier departure for the rain. Some snow seems plausible by the end of the 4th Q.

Either way, see you up the mountain!

Balmy 60's this morning but Ray's Weather is saying the storms should pass by game time. Low 30's with 55 mph wind gusts and flurries by 4th quarter. Going to be memorable. See you there!!

Let’s hope the most memorable part of the evening is the epic beat down of the eagles. Let’s redefine the hate tonight ...

Rain isn't the problem, it's the wind. It will be coming from the WNW right into The Stink bench. :) The smell will probably reach all the way into Blowing (no pun intended) Rock.

I believe we will see a lot of option and jet sweeps by us today. Virgil has a big night.

Rain has ceased after one heck of a night in the west.Expecting spotty showers for awhile but it seems most of it has moved out.

THURSDAY AM UPDATE

Winds today are problematic. Any sort of tailgating tents will need to be firmly secured or not used at all. Looks like the bulks of the rain will be done in time for kickoff. Wind gusts will be picking up to near 40 MPH at times. Temperatures will plummet as the cold air rushes in.

Dress in layers. Feet kept dry and warm, head kept dry and warm will equal brutal weather conditions success!

-----------

5PM - Showers / storms, mid 50s
8PM - Drizzle, lower 40s, Wind Chill mid 30s
HALFTIME - Drizzle, mid 30s, Wind Chill mid 20s, gusty
END of GAME - A few snow flakes, mid 30s, Wind Chill lower 20s, gusty

-----------

Wild ride this forecast has been. Our Mountain, OUR Weather, OUR WIN!

FAIL SOUTHERN!

8PM - Drizzle, lower 40s, Wind Chill mid 30s
HALFTIME - Drizzle, mid 30s, Wind Chill mid 20s, gusty

Weather wise it will be easier to score in the first half due to higher winds in the second half, another "wild" thought.

The entire game will be played under a High Wind Warning, per the NWS. Might want to tie the family together. :D

This may be some of the most interesting weather we've played in yet. I've been to some interesting ones, but this one is shaping up to be right up there.

Should be interesting. Just have to minimize our mistakes.

Getting ready to drive up in the next couple hours.
