None, blankets are ok.

GMG!

I doubt you will have traffic issues in Fort Worth on Saturday at noon. If it slows down at all, it should only be for a moment. Drive safe and pick up some goodies in West.

Never miss it.

Never miss it.

If you're staying over night, check out Kolache Haven in Denton on Sunday morning. They open at 7am. I'm particularly partial to the venison sausage kolache.

If you've got the kids with you, and you happen to be leaving a bit later in the morning, be sure to check out their sister company in the same building, Candy Haven. Their main bread and butter is custom wedding cakes, but brother, do they have some damn fine chocolates for sale. They open at 10am on Sunday.

Weather forecast is 20% chance of AM showers. The rest of the next few days is supposed to be a disaster so we're lucky it looks like.

High is now 42, so bundle up and we'll have a party at Apogee.

Agreed.

Are there any issues with bringing blankets into the stadium.

Not sure if rain is still likely, but umbrellas are not allowed.

I pretty much only use that link he gave for weather as I find it to be much more accurate than many other places. I pay little attention to the local news folks.

I fear attendace similar to the MTSU game two years ago. The only people that are going to be there are those of us on the board, a few hundred students and some player families.

Can't see it being that bad. I'm still expecting 18-20k.

I love this: tonight it shows a low of 44, yet in the description it says lows in the mid 30's....Saturday it shows a high of 44 yet in the description it says high 30's....so which one do you go with? Either way, it will cold out there, but no big deal.

The high for Saturday will probably occur at midnight. Depending on the timing of the front it may already be in the 30s by midnight so that could explain the Friday discrepancy. The description for Saturday likely refers to tw fterboom temperature since that's what many people think of for high temperature.

Are you serious?

I, too, fear this. But I believe that we won't be seeing turnouts like that anymore in the near future. Our momentum has to count for something.

Ah, that makes sense. I forget the high can be at midnight.

[meangreener]

Student ticket turnout is lower than the past few games but still about the same as Idaho. There's are sections sold out. Doesn't make much sense to think this way.

NOAA is where all Aviation weather is sourced, and most all other private weather sources base their information on. Some of the private sources just have their own adapted models. It is the most accurate for forecasting as far as my experience has been. Real time I use radarscope app on the Iphone it is a couple minutes off at most and if more up to date than most TV stations, I have an app that also reports all the temp and weather from airports and air traffic in those areas. Typical stuff you would get in a flight briefing.

Yes, until our fanbase proves otherwise, bad weather or even the threat of it keeps them away in droves.

Thanks.

Here's the NOAA forecast for Denton: http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Denton&state=TX&site=FWD&lat=33.2142&lon=-97.1309#.Uo56j1RDsnY

I trust in NOAA and WFAA for local weather above all others.

When I started this thread, I wrote that we ought to check back on the forecast on Thursday. Yep, going to be colder than forecast earlier in the week. The Arctic air that's headed our way has moved a lot quicker than anticipated, so instead of transitioning from warmer to cooler as thought earlier in the week, now it's looking like we'll have the legit cold air on us Saturday.
