Game Day The Wolfpack Way!

Wolfpack Nation! It's finally game day in Carter-Finley Stadium!! This has been a long awaited day, and I am really, really looking forward to coming back home!

Weather-wise, today will be less than ideal unfortunately. The National Weather Service is saying that there's about a 40% chance of showers throughout the day, and it looks like that may be the case.

Generally speaking, the temperature will start off this morning at around 70 degrees and will rise to a high much cooler than yesterday settling in the mid 80's. Cloud cover will depend on the amount of moisture and the convection with that moisture as the wind from the northeast blows inland from the coast.

Precipitation Potential

It looks like the main pocket of precipitation may start up in the early afternoon, around 2:00 or so. Once convection initiates with these storms, it is likely that they will begin forming rapidly. Their movement though should move them out of the way fairly quickly, so the rain we receive tomorrow may actually be from multiple storms linked together which formed along others' outflow boundaries.

It looks like broken rain may continue into the evening until about 9:00-10:00, or around the time the game is ending against Troy. Also unfortunate, it looks like the heaviest rain will be falling around halftime. I hope it's not raining at this time, but I cannot control the weather (if I could, I would not be in-debt!).

What to Bring

If you're a member of the team or one of the spirit squad, you know what to do. Band, yes, we will likely need ponchos tomorrow. If you are not a part of the above, it would be wise to bring an umbrella or light rain jacket (it will be too hot for a heavy rain coat or even rain boots).

Band Checklist

Band, remember what we need: Jackets, Hats, Pants, Gauntlets, Gloves, Black Socks, Black Shoes, Instruments (You would think this is a given, right? Well, it's happened.), Ponchos, Sunglasses (optional but helpful), Sunscreen (Recommended).

Wolfpack Nation: This is the time to show the world what we're all about. Bring the noise, bring the cheers, bring the support to pick up everyone in attendance. Carter-Finley needs to ring again with the shouting of 60,000. It's Game Day!! Let's Go Wolfpack!!
