They just missed the Sun Dome with that Blessing.

That was the trade off. No direct hits by hurricanes, but no championships in any major sports either.

If I sat in the rain for the putrid Gasparilla  Bowl, I can certainly sit in the rain to watch us play Wisconsin.

Unless it speeds up in a hurry, doubtful it will impact our game any more than typical August weather would.

Given recent weather trends, I don't think we need any help from Dorian to face a potential flood/lightning alert Friday night at Ray Jay.   It's even possible a slow mover could mean a washout for ou

The latest projection has the storm going a little further south and developing into a stronger storm before hitting the east coast later on Monday morning. No impact on our game but could cause some trouble for those of us traveling up to Atlanta early.

That is a bit more worrisome.  The models keep increasing the intensity.  Thats not a trend we want.  Although it is still a long way out and a lot can change. 

As long as we win Friday night, I'll be happy and just hunker down.

We have been crazy lucky.  We have missed so many potential direct hits over the years.

There is a folk story that the Indians put a Blessing on the Tampa Bay area years ago from getting direct hits by hurricanes.  So far so good!

There always has to be a Ying and a Yang right......I guess we happen to be the Yang!

Major storm bearing down on the coast on game day.  Ugh!  Makes it tough to choose between storm preparations at home and going to a football game. As long as USF says the game is still on, I'm coming up on my decision point. I hate when this happens and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

If you are East Coast of Florida you might want to head this way in any case.  OR get an early start on Ga Tech. Fingers crossed for the East Coast people.

Was talking Sun Dome but this shows there is hope for football.

This is really annoying. I’m leaving Friday afternoon from the East coast for the game, but planning to spend the weekend in Orlando. I’m not sure I’ll know by the time I leave Friday if I need my shutters up or not and these storm forecast move all over the place and are not any more accurate than random dart throws. And shutters for me are a lot of work to put up and take down so I’ll probably skip them unless it’s showing a cat 4.
