Our weather pattern will turn much more active later this week, but right now Saturday should be between storms, with rain looking to hold off until early Sunday morning.

Current forecast for kickoff, party cloudy, temps in the mid 70s, a little humidity, and a SE wind at 10 -15 mph. A good evening for bacon, pork sandwiches, and keeping Floyd home.
 


Less humidity than the last game though?

That humidity kinda sucked.

Yes, it will be a little better. The dewpoint was around 66 for most of last weeks game, which is getting close to the tropical range.

This week it should be around 60, enough that you can feel it, but I think it's still pretty comfortable, especially at night.
 

I have two different weather apps on my phone and my watch seems to use a third.

Right now two of them predict showers on Saturday and the third predicts gameday will be rain-free.
 





The forecast keeps changing so hopefully the storm threat will diminish or at least the chances of lightning are minimal.

Go Gophers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 




I checked the forecast prior to bed last night and my phone app suggested a dry tailgate followed by increasing chances for rain during the game.

I wake up this morning and it had completely changed to clear sky and dry conditions during tailgate and game.

Yes, the forecast keeps changing but this latest change is wonderful. Now, be nice and don’t change again.
 

Small chances it's saying right now. Hopefully no lightning.

The models have been all over the place this week, but there's starting to be more agreement as we get closer to Saturday.

There will be a chance of some widely scattered showers or storms around sunrise, but those clear out and it will be a warm afternoon with temps pushing into the 80s.

A cold front will move through around 4 PM and could bring another small chance of showers or an isolated T-Storm, before the game, but it's likely any rain will stay to the east in WI.

Behind the front temps will cool and the humidity will drop. Kickoff temp looks to be in the low 70s, and dropping into the low to mid-60s by the end of the game with low humidity.

There will be some wind to deal with, with wind gusts up to 20-25 mph out of the northwest behind the front.

Thank you so much!
 



Are we good to go now?

Some crazy clouds rolled through this morning, but has been great since.
