Pl;tr Rain likely starts around the late 3rd quarter.

The video alluded to in the link doesn't show up for me.

 

Here's the forcast from Weather Underground.  Click to embiggen

Currently 60% chance of rain at 7 pm, temps in the mid-70s, 8 mph wind.  Toward the end of the game, rain probability increases to 90% and the temps will drop into the mid-60s.

 

We'll get a better idea of what might actually happen in the am.

KMKC (KC Airport) has no rain in the forecast at all:

 

KMKC 092320Z 1000/1024 20012KT P6SM BKN150
FM100200 20014KT P6SM BKN150 WS020/21045KT
FM101200 27006KT P6SM BKN120

I believe this forecast ends at 7pm, so it supports the idea that rain doesn't start until after that.

When possible, I always try to look at local meteorologists rather than weather data sites. Local just seem to be more reliable to me. Plus the weather sites often contradict each other. For example, Accuweather’s forecast is very different than Weather Underground:

Aviation forecasts in this format are in GMT, so it doesn't include game time.

The current aviation forecast for the game time period calls for rain and a chance of a thunderstorm.

Just watched all 3 big TV network weather forecasts from KC.

 

It sounds like around 9pm the weather is going to move in and by midnight it will be very rainy and stormy.

 

So it's just a question of when it gets there and/or if it can hold off until after the game.

 

Sounds like it will arrive around halftime.

 

First half weather will be fine; second half and 4th quarter in particular weather will be bad.

 

That's my guess.

Well hopefully Chiefs defer or we elect to recieve. Game starts 8:20 Eastern so i assume this weather is Central time so it will get there around 10 our time...

Weather looks like it's slowly getting pushed later and later as time goes on... 

 

If everyone at the stadium can look the storms direction and blow real hard maybe we can slow it even further.

 

I've unsuccessfully used that last statement with my wife before.

Low wind is good.  They’ve all played in rain, and I’m even more focused on seeing a heavy dose of Moss as both have fumbled, but motor seems a little more prone.  We can’t afford turnovers.  CEH has been known to lose them too.

No one can

You're getting your wish. I'm not sure it's a good thing though because it will even the playing field for the KC defense.

They need to worry about stopping a lot more than the passing game. In any event, the rain doesn’t seem to stop the Bills passing game.

I am most worried about a long lightening delay. Looks to me like KC might not catch the brunt of it, but it is shaping to be a pretty massive storm system down here a little more south.  I am afraid i may fall asleep dyring a commercial with no delays.

I don't want any of this storm.  

 

I want to face KC 1 on 1 and see if we've closed the gap to them this year or not.

Yes, all times are obviously local, meaning central.  

 

Game starts earlier, which is why 9pm is close to half-time.  

 

The relevant factor is when the weather hits (or misses) relative to game time.  Right?
