AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!! I'm so anxious for this game, I can't stand it!

Dark Sky app shows very light rain for the next hour. If hasn't been pouring they should be able to start.

BTw, Dark Sky app rules.

Is it being delayed for television purposes so that the viewership can finish watching the Nats / Cards game?

No. It's being delayed because it's supposed to rain until 8:15.

This is bull****.

F*** weather.

No. It's being delayed because it's supposed to rain until 8:15.

So it's not actually raining, but they are going to delay because it might rain?

[Terpsnation]

I'm going to go with a 6:55 start.

No way they wait until 8-9. Even with light rain.

No, it has rained as well. It's not supposed to fully stop until 8:15.

Just looked, I'll pass at 3.99. I got weather underground and it does me really well.

Thanks. It's crazy that there are no actual reports of what's going on from any official sources. ESPN, MLB and Orioles.com all just say "delayed". I guess they can't be bothered to say why or when it's expected to start.

Guess it means nobody knows for sure.

It's a steady mist here at the part, with an occasional 5 minute burst of drizzle.

TBS just said the grounds crew said there's another batch of rain due to come through, so it could be awhile. Though it seems that was just their speculation.

I think what they are doing, is trying to avoid a stoppage once game starts. This is the playoffs, and don't want to lose SP due to a possible in game delay.

It's moving northeast. Don't worry about the patch to the west, just the patch to the southwest.

Weather.com says it will be entirely done by 8:15.
