Akron Game Weather

I was just about to post a thread on this too.  I am making an 8-hour drive to see the game tomorrow night, and now it looks like its supposed to storm.  I will keep my fingers crossed its just nothing too bad and the game does not get delayed.  

 
There is a chance of severe stuff...  If it is bad is there any chance it would be delayed until Sunday?  I didn't know if that had ever happened.

It's not supposed to storm anymore. That's what weather.com was saying on Wednesday. Now it's only supposed to rain and the % chance has dipped down again. But it's still above 50% for 8pm on. I'm hoping by tomorrow it'll have been delayed to Sunday morning.

They would delay it during the game until the thunder/lightning passed, if they thought it would pass in a decent amount of time. I don't think there's any way they'd play it on Sunday. If it gets cancelled they'll either move it to a different weekend or cancel it all together. But I see no thunderstorms in the forecast for Saturday. Only rain.

Accuweather has it at about 60% chance of rain right now.  It all depends on if the front stays south of Lincoln or moves north.

It's going to suck if it rains all game.

I agree, but if they were to ever delay a game to Sunday, this would be the weekend. Three day weekend, and no nfl. There are a few CFB games already scheduled for Sunday and Monday, so it's not completely out of the question if it comes to that.

Ya that's a good point.

 
No way they push the game back. If anything, it'll get delayed. Let's hope if it rains it just rains and no lightning. But it would suck if we're down 21-17 and a lightning storm rolls in.

I sure hope they can get the game in on Saturday as I don't have a place to stay Sunday night if the game gets pushed back a day.  The only time I have seen games rescheduled are when there is a tropical storm or hurricane in the Southeast.  Let's hope the weather Gods are looking out for Frost's big debut as a head coach.
