Weather for the home opener

Predicting a front ot come through Friday night and for the high on Saturday to be in the 80s with a slight chance of storms (which should come through ahead of the front Friday night).

God smiles on the Mean Green 2 years in a row?

Man, I had been holding off on this topic because I didn't want to to jinx it.... So this better not jinx it

Come on, man. It's not like it's a no hitter.

Somewhere today, Flyer was muttering no hitter with 2 out in the 6th. :lol:

Thunderstorms? I just hope the front gets here quick enough to cool things down Friday night for those of us camping at Apogee.

A little rain should stifle the mosquitoes....you know...until they proceed to procreate in the puddles.

Rain = okay. Lightning = bad.

Latest model run looks like front will pass about 2am-7am time frame Saturday morning, both GFS and European in good agreement on this. It will likely have a squall line in front of it. If this remains unchanged, it's great timing as neither the soccer game vs. Baylor on Friday night nor Saturday tailgating will be affected. Game Time looks right now to be about 82 degrees with a light North wind.

This far out, the timing can change, but likely not by much. It's a major weather pattern shift, and definitely will happen. Worst case would be a wave forming along the front on Friday slowing up its progress by several hours, but that would still get it through by late morning Saturday. Biggest impact will be for the overnighters.

Best weather sources, IMO (localized for Denton):
