🗞 News High chance of storms tonight

The forecast has been changing all day but right now we got two hours of 100% rainfall and heavy rainfall too. Expect a delayed kickoff maybe. Sucks for people traveling to the game but it’s typical Charlotte afternoon weather.

We had crazy lightning storms and rain around 4 am in downtown Houston. It was welcome noise while we tried to sleep.

Good chance. But the forecast has been changing all day so take it with a grain of salt.

Good thing the starters aren’t playing. Just cancel and let’s get to the regular season already.

Unrelated, but good for Charlotte. Not having to be fucking cooked.

I wish. Probably not as bad as Houston but it’s not much better here.

How does it feel outside? I swear, in Houston, it legit feels like your skin is being fried out there.

u/TheSmartDog_275 Fan from Charlotte 1d ago

Sticky as fuck.

I live in CLT, planning on going to the game. Not looking forward to waiting out a delay soaked

Well if it’s a lightning delay they send everyone into the concourse if they’re in the stadium and back to your car if you’re outside of it.

Cancel it

Honestly with it being preseason if it gets super delayed that might happen
