FU has lifted the umbrella ban for tomorrow. Thought this deserved a special mention.

One of the reasons Basketball has become my favorite sport now, you don't have to worry much on the weather front

Wow!

WYFF up to 100% chance of heavy rain. NWS still at 90%. This is the NWS forecast for tomorrow. "Rain, mainly before 1pm, then showers after 1pm. Patchy fog. High near 53. East northeast wind 5 to 8 mph becoming southeast in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible."

30 years ago I sat in a wet snow at paladin stadium. Rain and 60 degrees is not a problem.

The SFA semi-final game. Hard to believe that was 30 years ago!

Yep, remember it well. On the way out it was just a cold rain with maybe a little sleet. It turned to a wet heavy snow that started sticking quickly and the field was covered. Had to be 2-3 inches on the field. Wasn't supposed to snow and in fact it didn't snow downtown. I am pretty sure that is the only Furman game to be played in the snow in Greenville, maybe anywhere? Really think the weather cost us the game and another possible championship.
