Weather on Sunday

Can't Jeter just lift up his staff and, instead of parting the waters, just send them out to sea?

The national weather service is showing rain until 10 pm. If the O's wait until then to start the game they will get it in.

I've actually been hoping for a delay as I have to be in church until 8 tonight

But it looks to me like there won't be any "severe" rain. Just little showers going through on an overcast, damp, cold day. Not the best conditions, but I think they get this game in on time.

If that's the case, then it's a good thing that tomorrow is a late game (8:07 P.M.), and also that Tuesday is an off-day.

I don't what other people are looking at, but the Doppler looks like the rain is gonna be gone well before game time.

Agreed. The storms in the Carolinas and Virginia are moving east and at this point would have to start moving back west to come over Baltimore. That can happen, but storms usually don't reserve pattern like that up here. Pay little attention to the National Weather Service hourly reports; they tend to just air on the side of conservatism when it comes to rain.

Here's a little quick & personalized forecast:

Dealing with two fronts. Front one is over or just east of Baltimore at this time. Precipitation shield from this front is east of Baltimore. Second front over Ohio with less impressive precipitation shield. I expect spotty showers across the Baltimore Metro this afternoon. As the second front approaches later this evening, a broad area of light rain may cross over Baltimore. Some frontal "pooling" of moisture could occur, enhancing the rain a bit. I don't think that it will rain hard enough this evening for the game to be called. It will be gross, cold, and raw.

It's probably just me, but this entire subject and the attention that it is garnering kind of makes me feel like we're all on The Titanic, and we are trying to avoid being sunk by a couple of icebergs. :laughlol:

The MFYs are on the Titanic, and the Orioles are the iceberg, with 90% of its mass unseen below the surface of the hype, watching, waiting, ready to strike

And now here are the ball scores.

4-1. 8-5. And 6-3.

The weather forecast for tonight is DARK. Followed by patches of light toward morning.

...and a partial score - Pittsburgh 4.

TWC.com has lowered the chance of rain to 10%, 25% and 30% for 6pm, 7pm and 8pm. Still 50% at 9pm and there seems to be some bands developing on the doppler that could come into play.

Much better outlook than earlier.

[pwhite]

At this point I'm pretty positive this game is going to happen tonight on time.

[333WCamden]

Oh yeah, I'm not concerned about a delay in the least bit. I'm just wondering if I'm going to be sitting out in the rain or not.

[pwhite]

I doubt it/hope not. They were originally saying it was going to rain all day. I live 9 miles from the Stadium and there hasn't been a drop.
