Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
So, we are looking at a faster moving system with Ian. Friday through later Saturday morning or early afternoon is the steadier and heavier rain window. Just based on data as of 2:25 PM Thursday, the trend is for the steadier rain to give way to some showers in the region.
With the 3:30 PM kickoff there's a chance, we may not see much rain action for the game. This is about a 8 hour shift in timing we'd been tracking since early in the week.
I will leave it to your best judgement, but, for Boone, it appear as dire today as data had been pushing 24 hours ago. We've had consistent model runs with this quicker departure of the rain since late last night.
I hope it verifies for the sake of the teams on that field tomorrow. Plus, I hope Citadel folks get out of Charleston Friday AM. That may be a problem if a cat 1 hurricane moves in on them before they can get on the road.
GO MOUNTAINEERS!

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
Well the youngest kids soccer usually eats up every Saturday unfortunately. I'm only going to make the Wed night game and RMU (because the soccer game is early enough) this season it appears.appstate24 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 2:12 pmYou can smoke the ribs and chicken next week for Texas St. Throw on the Frog Toggs and slosh around with the rest of us crazies at KBS Saturday!

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
Probably wouldn't make it to the destination. And that's 2 racks of pork ribs, 1 beef ribs and 2 whole chicken. But neighbors are coming over and between us is 7 kids from 7-16 so everything will be gone quickly.

Time to cancel soccer, it's interfering with actual football.

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
Seems like the storm keeps tracking a little bit more east by the update. I am definitely not on Mr. Crum's level, but seems like it might not be a terrible gameday experience after all.

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
I just miss the days of when we had like 20-40 people in a gravel lot for tailgating and cooking all morning for delicious pregame meals. Those darn families and life got in everyone’s way. And losing that great tailgate lot.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 4:19 pmWell, I think there needs to be a Yosef Cabin BBQ at Biggie's house,![]()

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
Ok - what is the final forecast/predictions? Trying to make the final call if we will travel from Raleigh in the morning with our 5 year old. Don't want him to be miserable if winds will be terrible (he's a bit delicate, lol).

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
I'm sure Crum will update soon. But appears that rain percent will drop to 50 or below around noon tomorrow in Boone with less than 10mph winds.abbyjaynes wrote: ↑Fri Sep 30, 2022 7:29 amOk - what is the final forecast/predictions?

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
In charleston- been raining hard for hours, flooding everywhere and windy. Surely this thing won’t have much left after it makes land. hopefully it’ll scoot on up the coast fast and be clear and gone by gametime. go apps!

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
The path continues to move east. Now to pass just west of Greensboro in the AM and then on to Roanoke. Gametime should be free of much of the diminishing effects.

Re: Thursday UPDATE APP STATE / CITADEL WX
Really tempted to come. I haven't had a down weekend since football started. The expected terrible weather was my valid excuse to park my butt on the couch today, but the calm skies and cool air make me crave the Kidd Brewer roar today.
