Wolfpack Going Turkey Hunting

It's game day again Wolfpack! Today though we are back out of state, hunting the Hokies in Blacksburg, VA. Unfortunately, it is likely going to be another rain game...

An approaching cold front will help to produce precipitation in Virginia this evening, overnight, and throughout the day tomorrow. The game is at 8:00 tonight and our 100-piece pep band are bringing our ponchos because of the chances for rain tonight. I'm not sure whether Lane Stadium allows umbrellas or not, so it would be a good idea to bring a rain coat with you to have. 

Blacksburg
The temperature today is likely going to reach the upper 70's, however tonight ahead of that cold front the temperature is going to drop down into the low 50's. There is a northeasterly breeze which will be persistent but not strong throughout the game helping the temperature to cool off a bit. Tomorrow the cold front will make it's way through Blacksburg and Raleigh, The high tomorrow in Blacksburg will likely not rise out of the 50's, and tomorrow night after the heavier rain and thicker clouds clear out the temperature will drop into the low 40's. 

Raleigh
The temperature today in Raleigh has already risen into the low 80's and may rise a few more degrees before increasing cloudiness slows the solar heating to a stop. Increading cloud cover tonight will turn into precipitation tonight ahead of the approaching cold front, and the low tonight will drop into the low 60's. Tomorrow, the high will settle around the mid 60's due to overcast skies and precipitation, and tomorrow night after the front passes the temperature will drop to near 50, so be sure to take a jacket out with you tomorrow night if you go out. 

Put on your game faces everyone and help get our team the conference win we need! This would be an awesome win for our team, and a great momentum builder into the next couple weeks. It's Game Day! Let's go Wolfpack!
