Football in the Snow... In Seattle!

[jshawaii22]

I wonder what the crowd will be like. It's supposed to snow heaviest overnight Saturday into Sunday and the high temp is 29degres. Burrrrrrr.....

I give you all the credit if you go. Looks like a few shots on Redzone will be the closest I'll get to it.

We're not forecasted to get any snow where I live, but the temps are supposed to drop as low as the single digits next week.

All things considered, including the pandemic, the weather, a poor opponent, and the all but mathematically finished Seahawks will keep the crowd low, 35-40K in house max.

I was given tickets to a Seahawks game, hawks nest in the dreadful Mora season of 2009. The weather was exactly what is forecast with high winds. Hass was the QB. I believe the opponent was the 9ers. Amazingly it was a last second win for Seattle, one of 5 but by the time my wife and I got to our truck we were blocks of Ice. I had to warm up for 20 minutes to be able to stop shaking enough to drive. Ill never go to a game like that again.

I dont think the forecast is going to help Russel's finger. I'm also not too happy Foles is starting. Hes a wily vet with a big arm that can throw it deep. I was drooling at facing Justin Fields. Something says it wont be easy.

Nothing is coming easy this year, it seems.

Anyone know the weather forecast for today's game? What's the wind forcasted to be?
I would think if it's windy the run game will be most important with a frozen ball.

My weather app, of which I've found to be pretty accurate, has forecasted conditions in Seattle at kickoff as 28 degrees F, 32% chance of snow showers, with a wind speed of 12 mph.

There is a winter storm warning issued for the Seattle area from 6am to 3pm today with snow accumulations of 2-5", so it's going to be nasty.

Thanks.
Heavy on the run game I suspect.

I doubt that it'll be as bad as the Pats-Bills a few weeks back, but the weather is likely to have an impact on how the game is played.

I’m glad I’m not there . We had considered buying dirt cheap tickets for this or the next one . It’s just going to be awful . I bet the wind chill will be single digits . And despite the big hands Russ really doesn’t play very well in bad weather sometimes . I just want to see a good game .

What kind of preparations are made on the field to clear snow? Here in Bellingham it is 14 degrees at noon, and I have about 8 to 10 inches in my yard with winds at about 19 mph. Ouch.
