Any chance that Hurricane Florence will be a factor on Saturday?

[TBALLVOL]

Looks like Saturday could be really wet and windy. Many may stay home. The Vol Navy may be on the 50 yard line. Lots of games cancelled or postponed this Saturday. Any news or contingencies for us?

Sounds like you’re really stressing about this.

20% chance of rain, you can relax.

Saturday looks fine in Knox.

Outer fringe hurricanes are just rain. So it could rain. It’s a practice game so I bet they have a rain version of the game plan.

Based on current projections, looks like minimal impact during gametime. Weather will likely be nasty on Sunday but no need for contingency plan on Saturday, IMO. Still, I suspect that many fans who live well east of Knoxville will choose not to travel.

 

[volgrad500]

If we've learned anything this season it's that if there is lighting within a three state radius, our game will be postponed.

If I have to sit through another weather delay........

Everytime these are predicted to hit head on they never do.... Hopefully it hangs off the coast and rolls with it .... Also, hopefully if it does hit directly it downgrades to a lower category.

You should just get blitzed through the weather delay......

Those who live well east may not have a choice but to travel.

Yep, we're on our way from Wilmington, NC. Ain't staying for that mess. Hope we don't bring too much rain with us.

Noon game. Don’t wanna get to high to early. I will be workin on a buzz tho.

 

[MyVolsDropped]

If any Tennessee Football team is playing this weekend there's a good chance there will be a weather delay.

3 for 3 so far. (VOLS 2, Titans 1)

 

[joevol33]

I'll be there, but I'm bringing my rain suit just in case.

 

[I40flyer]

I'm surprised some haven't asked if Knoxville should have a precautionary evacuation-or should all the players be issued life vests! Without even looking at the forecast, some fans seem to think the worst of every situation-I believe these are the same guys that are in charge of calling delays, because someone thinks they saw lighting in South Carolina.

Me to

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Early game, yeah! Hopefully that means less lightning too. If it were a Sunday game, would be LSU 2017 all over again.

At the West Virginia game we had to remain in the concourse. It was like being in a sauna with 60K sweating fans for 65 minutes.

Very low chance. We did not even get any rain out of Hugo.

 

[OnlyGodForgives]

Availability of gasoline is something else to ponder for those committed to attending the game. Shouldn't be a problem, but I would err on the side of caution.

 

[volfannbama]

No, and a meaningless football should probably be the least of our worries.

 

[CroKev]

I'm concerned that if they cancel the game, then it might wind up being the 6th win we needed to qualify for a bowl game this year.
