Scattered showers and thunderstorms look possible Friday night, especially during the first half. Everything should clear out for the second half. Temperatures will be nice though. Upper 60s with a bit of humidity. Wind should not be a major factor, 10-15 mph through the open end of the stadium.

As for last night's microclimate, it ended up being cooler with the wind than I planned for in 211.

That plus the game and my chili was not hot (but did warm up around minute 7:30 left in the 4th Quarter).

Many people left early from our section (207) because they were not dressed appropriately. Everyone was in short-sleeve T-shirts during the tailgating and did not think the temps (along with the wind) would require jackets/sweatshirts in the stadium.

One of my buddies was convinced he could handle the game in a tee and shorts. I somehow managed to convince him to throw a pair of pants on and I brought an extra jacket. Safe to say he was wearing said jacket halfway through the second

Yeah but that is on the sunny side of the stadium, where I am told it is always so much warmer than the shady side.

I see people (especially younger people) consistently underestimate the chill factor and wind, especially at night. It isn't just football games. I bring rookies out night fishing a lot all spring/summer/fall and I nearly always need to tell them to dress more warmly than whatever they have picked out for themselves as they show up.

I hope the rain in the forecast for gameday dries up as the week progresses just like it did last week. We've been really lucky with Gopher gameday weather so far this year.

Sitting on the Visitors side even for a night game has the benefit when there is a wind from the north to be at our back and really blocked by the stadium.

I was in the lower deck on Saturday and just fine with a long sleeve t-shirt and hoodie.
 

Remember when we used to pray for rain a few years ago? Maybe a hurricane if we're lucky.

Now the Gophers need clear and still for a chance
