Wind modeling has been around in one form or another since the Wright Brothers.

Ralph is cheap.  Didn’t want to pay for the modeling. 😉

He just licked his finger and stuck it in the air.

But how do we befuddle the snow?

I've heard Edmunds plays better in the wind

Normal wind or confused wind?

With a QB like Allen, you have to figure his performance informed some of the decisions on stadium design.  Cutting down on the wind has got to help the team while he is here.

I hope the new stadium minimizes wind and maximizes crowd noise - the way Seattle’s stadium does.

"Snow, what do you think of Tremaine Edmunds"?

The snow has no opinion on Tremaine Edmunds, but the snow wants @RunJoshRun to stop posting immediately.

What happens when all the snow drift clogs up the mesh

I tell you this when The Pegula's, stadium designer and I sat down I did bring it up. All of us believed it was obvious that the lost was because of the wind. So yes the wind affected the planning for this stadium. 😏

That's why there will be a "snow drift diffusion" mush put up before the "wind confusion" mesh.

Looks like great new technology to minimize wind impact no matter the weather.

I doubt it. Terry insisted on an outdoor stadium but design changes were made to make it more bearable for fans.

not sure on the design…I think they just dug a hole in the ground and filled it with concrete.
