Chance of Rain

Post by sikeston bulldog2 »

Good morning.

My first question is- has game been cancelled?

If not, an active Tornado Watch and a chance for storms beginning at 1 pm. Once rain gets here, will be hours.
Seems they might want to save fans the trouble of traveling on very wet roads, blinding rain, and money.

Further south flood watches for most of southern missouri, west Illinois, ne Arkansas west Kentucky. An epic rain event may occur- 8 to 15 inches of rain.


Any thoughts on a developing situation.

St. Louis and surrounding area is under a tornado watch. I look for the game to be called off shortly.

Be a shame as American League Angels sole visit here. Right ?
Causes make up game issue.

Tornadic winds ‘blowing out’ may take Walkers 400 ft. bomb yesterday and be a 600 ft. Blast today.

Maybe Winn would hit pop up on infield blow over the OF wall.

Of note- if we are late season making up this game, that means we probably are in the race, or why bother.

if the game means nothing in the playoff race, nothing in the draft order, and has no available date/time prior to close of regular season, then the game won't be made up. Otherwise, the game will be made up 1 day after close of season.

I posted this in the GDT also. Didn't see this one.

They can move this game to 5/29 if needed.
It seems to work smoothly for both teams.

Or they could wait it out since both teams are off tomorrow.

It's the simplest answer if they think there is window to get it in safely.

Probably what they'll try to do. Although, tomorrow's weather looks bad too. I'm told that they don't have rainouts anymore, just suspended games, so maybe over two days they can get the game in. :D

I don't know what St. Louis is calling for, but down here in wky were expecting 3-4 inches tomorrow and 8-10 thru Sat morning.

Bananas postponed their weekend games at Busch.


That sounds like a porn line…

Good God, I hope we don't get THAT! My phone's weather app shows a bit higher % chance of rain tomorrow than today and a bit cooler too. I'm sure they're mulling their options over right now. Start the game if possible and see what happens, and use tomorrow if necessary. I can't WAIT to see today's attendance!
