Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: Creek Walker on September 30, 2015, 03:24:30 EDT I'm taking my 9-year-old son to the game and he's loving the forecast. Needless to say, I'm hoping it swings back the other direction.

Rain favors the ground game so, open up those flood gates, I say. :nod: Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: Creek Walker on September 30, 2015, 04:14:05 EDT Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: PirateVOL on September 30, 2015, 04:14:52 EDT Don't all 9-year-old boys? usually, with dirt mixed in ...Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: RockyMtnVol on September 30, 2015, 04:26:40 EDT I'm just glad Casey Clausson's out.

If Hurricane Joaquin takes the track depicted by the biggest U.S. weather model, it may rain buckets Saturday evening.

If Hurricane Joaquin takes the track depicted by the biggest U.S. weather model, it may rain buckets Saturday evening. Latest run of the GFS model dumps almost 1.5" of rain on Knoxville during the time frame of the game Saturday. That's a lot of wetness.

Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: BanditVol on October 01, 2015, 10:11:23 EDT Heavy rain Saturday night in Neyland still appears very likely, but none of this counts until about 12 hours prior. Check back Saturday morning and the predicts will mean something more (though still far from perfect). :biggrin:
Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: murfvol on October 02, 2015, 01:33:15 EDT Thanks Creek. That was super geeky and useful. A buddy from Arkansas was pondering flying (private plane), or driving. Your writeup helped.

It changed since I posted that. Which is why I don't really worry about it 72 hours ahead of time. :dance: Actually looks like rain is a lock now, but we'll know for sure tonight.

I was looking at the humidity column, not the chance of precip. It's slightly more likely than it was at 7:47 am. But for the record, I hope it pours buckets because Arkansas has a better passing offense than us.

But it will probably still be here in the morning. :dunno: Title: Re: Looks like a wet evening in Neyland Post by: murfvol on October 03, 2015, 09:33:57 EDT The drive from Charlotte wasn't bad, except for a pocket near Asheville. What that means I do not know.
Pretty nice fall day at the moment |
