Game Day Weather
Tailgating
Waking up to some frost and temperatures in the low 30s! They'll rebound quickly, jumping to the mid 40s for lunch, and mid 50s in the afternoon - a touch below normal for this time of year. Winds are light all day, out of the north at 5-7mph (just enough to feel the breeze on your skin). Tons of sunshine throughout the day, so it's a good tailgate to wear the hat and sunglasses to!
Kickoff
Chilly is the name of the game! (and hopefully win) 49 degrees at kick off, with temps falling fast through the 40s as the first half goes on. Winds are out of the NNE at about 6mph - it's just barely enough to rustle the leaves, but is enough to give a wind chill to make it feel a couple degrees cooler. We start the game with mostly clear skies.
Halftime
A few clouds here and there, but a lot of stars under those lights! If light shows aren't your thing, maybe this is a good time to get a hot chocolate! 43 at the halfway point, with a light NE wind at maybe 5mph making it feel like 40. Temperatures will fall further, so the second half may be a good time to break out those hand warmers!
Post-Game
Dropping into the upper 30s walking out of those gates to the car, with a very light and variable wind. Starry skies will carry on the remainder of the night. Heading out late to celebrate? Hopefully you grabbed the coat - it'll be cold! Temps down to the mid 30s by last call with a light east wind. It won't be much of a breeze, but enough to create a wind chill to the low 30s. Let's make it a good one under the lights boys. C'mon blue!
