This could be a dangerous post but with Monday also being the Iowa Republican Caucuses, I have to think that networks like CBS, Fox, NBC don't want to be televising football during those evening hours. I wouldn't be surprised if that was a factor here.

All the more reason to counterprogram with a playoff game

Yes it does. Look at the blue bars on the bottom. My estimate of 8 inches before the game may actually be low. It looks more like 12 inches. 

 

Your "estimate" of 8" during the game is patently absurd

Not sure what you're looking at but this is the NOAA/NWS hourly forecast graphic and it does not show that at all:

Apparently they were right as whatever he posted is pure bunk.

And in Turk's defense, he has significant meteorology training and is 100% correct.

Unless your familiar and experienced with this kind of weather, you are a piker.

Kind of like an accountant lecturing an architect about stadium construction. :flirt:

 

 

 

 

And you know this because you own a Time Machine and have gone forward to see Sunday? 😉

There’s a MNF game at night.  CBS gets an exclusive window for the playoff game.  Monday’s a day off.  The NFL doesn’t care about travel plans of its fans.  And, most importantly, it might be the only way to play this game in Buffalo this weekend.

I'm sure it would suck for a lot of people, but it's also a holiday.

 

Wouldn't be the end of the world, in fact if the wind isn't as bad it would probably be to our advantage.

I think he said before the game. Not sure what's going on here lol

 

He claimed And right at kickoff the band becomes more intense dropping another 8 inches from 1pm to 4 pm.

The chart actually shows 2.6" during the game

There’s already a game in the evening on Monday. It’s MLK Day and many people have the day off….and anyone traveling to and from Pittsburgh or anywhere would prefer the game be in the middle of the day. All of this is just too obvious and logical.

Is the chart for the airport or for OP?  (I agree with you that it was read incorrectly.). I ask because there typically is significant variance between accumulation in the Southtowns and the airport.

When's the latest the NFL can realistically reschedule the game?

Depends what you mean by reschedule.  If it’s move it to a different city, they probably can do it as late as tonight if it’s going to Detroit.  It gets dicier if done tomorrow morning.  If it’s not relocating, but simply changing the date and time of the game, I don’t see any reason why that cant be accomplished tomorrow.
