Early forecast for Bills/Patriots

[Draconator]

I'm liking Pivotal Weather. The actual forecast doesn't go out more than 48 hours, which in meteorology circles is the time frame to predict with some certainly a moderately accurate forecast. So I looked at some extended models. 

 

From what I can see, temps will be about 30 degrees with a chance of flurries. Winds could be a factor, blowing from the Northeast. There will be low pressure right off the Massachusetts coast, which could extend the windy conditions inland to Foxborough.

Curious where you are seeing the wind?
 

I usually go to windy.com, which seems pretty accurate in terms of wind conditions. I am not seeing much wind? It is saying only 8 MPH, and gusts of 17 MPH.

I was looking at the GFS (National Weather Service) model (The NWS has 21 models to choose from), 200 mb Height, (dam), Kit (kt). A couple of other models like the Canadian RDPS Model has moderate winds blowing from the East. The trick with extended range forecasting is taking a number of models, and finding common trends between them all. The models are generated by banks of supercomputers, but to accurately decipher all the models, it takes a human brain.

MSN weather 30 degrees and mostly cloudy around game time.

Looking at the 950 mb model for winds, it did have light winds from the East. I'm still learning more about this.

Speaking of "blowing from the Northeast."

So, you’re saying there’s a chance?

Not fully. In my introductory Meteorology class, it was so intriguing, that I thought about switching my major to Meteorology. When my instructor told me it would be about 4 years of calculus and other various math classes, I was like no dawg.

I took a Meteorology class at JCC taught by Aaron Menkowski from channel 7 in Buffalo. Great class. Great teacher and he loved Buffalo sports. Mostly students who were trying to become pilots.

My major currently is Turfgrass Sciences. I am changing it to Organizational Leadership as that falls in line the most with what I do for my job. After I get my Bachelors, I'll continue with Penn State for a Meteorology Certificate.

Well Mr. Fancypants, I got a doctorate from the School of Hard Knocks.  
I graduated Com Onna, very prestigious standing.

Can you lower the Bills Cap situation so we can sign a WR1? I think you can.

I’m doing some redesign work on the new stadium; I noticed some mistakes were made. After that, I’ll work on the cap.

I’ve seen rain and snow but never the wind. 🤷‍♂️

Or ask Uncle Al, whose right knee acts up depending on the weather.

Probably the most accurate weather forecasting "tool" out there.
