LOL. Doesn’t appear they’ve made any changes to it since the iPhone 10. One of the few things Apple has never improved on their platform.

Too early to forecast weather for Saturday. They try to, but wrong 50% of the time.

Can the networks bump this game up some? It looks clear in early afternoon. The tropical storm will be over then at that point.

I feel like I’m in a twilight zone from last week. Since when did we move games because of a chance of rain?

They aren't going to bump the game because of rain. This won't be a lightening event.

They’re also not going to risk injuries if the field conditions are unplayable.

Teams have played in remnants of tropical storms all the time. The field wont get to that point.

We also have no idea what is going to happen to this hurricane once it gets inland. It’s Tuesday.


Not gonna be a hurricane.


I think it's going to be a hurricane. Still, no idea what it'll do when it's inland. That part is pretty hard to predict.

Easy solution, and everyone will hate it, but just move the game to noon. The game will be over and everyone back in their homes and hotels before the worst of it comes through. But ESPN, "nah, we're good."

Local meteorologists are saying that there are a bunch of different models right now and nothing is clear. Some show the storms rolling in Saturday afternoon others overnight and then some in-between. We really won't know until Friday morning probably.

Yeah this thing could do a wide variety of things once it hits land. Too early to predict.

Park near the coast, scoot East/West, speed up going North, etc.

It does seem like it's going to intensify to at least a Cat 1 at landfall and a lot of weather channel folks seem to think Cat 2 is definitely possible.

Saw that. So where does a 1/4 inch of rain count as heavy? Death Valley? ……The one in California.

It will be absolutely hit or miss during the game. When those storms come in over the land and make their way inland, they break up into a million pieces and it is impossible to predict where it will or won't rain.

We have to consider the fact that public officials tend to freak-out these days over anything hurricane like. "never can be too safe" public stance has lead to ridiculous over reactions already this year. Never discount the hype around a tropical something - deserved or not.
