Weather in Athens Saturday?

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Possible showers in the morning before the game and off and on in the afternoon. I've been a little nervous about this all week.

I don't think rain or a wet field favors our receiver's speed advantage.

 

[joevol33]

We're gonna cloud up, and rain all over them.

It is to our advantage. Our guys know where they are going, the defense doesn’t.

It’s all relative. uGA’s DB’s will lose some speed too.

 

[Other_Guy]

Good, Stetson Doordash Bennett will throw a few extra picks.

Gotta be able to cut and catch the ball. Not saying qe wont be able to but it could be a problem. But it was supposed to rain against UK and then it didn't so we'll see.

We don't cut much, just run right by you.

Depends on coverage

joevol33 is itching for the Vols to slap them dawgs. Right Smokey?

 

[Adam Sandler]

Good. Put em on skates!

 

[Chilmonty]

It’s calling for a light drizzle…..from the eyes of GA fans!

I absolutely love that! Haha

Yes a storm is coming and it's in the form of Orange! Raining TDs from Hooker to Hyatt and Tillman and McCoy.

The forecast that I saw just had the morning showers, nothing during the game. I think we are okay.

 

[jmacvols1]

Moderate storms with strong winds moving thru west TN into middle TN currently, it will be impacting east TN in a few hours...

[AdoptedVOL]

Looks like cloudy (no sun in receiver eyes), no rain, light wind. Great day for Hendon to load up his cannon for Tillman, Hyatt, and the crew.

 

[GAVol]

Less than 10% chance of rain during the game.

 

[Sudden Impact]

A Sloppy field is a wash for both teams.

Anything can happen, but speed is speed.

Coverage guys have just as much disadvantage as the WRs in this case. Plus they are playing on their heels.

Losers use weather as an excuse.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Will be heavy rain sometime. May hold off till late in the game or afterwards

 

[OrangeTsar]

Front is speeding up. Might make it to Athens during the game. Will be close.
Best case scenario, we open up a big lead in first half and then downpour in second half to hinder any Dawg rally

I live 25 mins south of Athens. Rained before daylight should be dry by now on the field

 

[Orange931]

According to the weather channel, the rain line will dissipate before it even reaches Atlanta. I’m watching the future cast and there’s no rain forecasted all the way to 6pm

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Will be heavy rain sometime. May hold off till late in the game or afterwards

From the NWS it's just showing a 20% chance until well after the game is over.
