Below 60 is comfy
Between 60-65 is muggy
Between 65-70 starts to get uncomfortable
Anything above 70 is oppressive
Start times and projected Dew Points:
Sat. 2pm - 73
Sun. 8pm - 72
Mon. 6pm - 70
Looking at the forecast, don't know how they are gonna play on Saturday. There is a 50%+ chance of rain for virtually every day light hour of Saturday, and Sunday, every hour has at least a 50% chance of rain forecasted. Maybe they can get the game in Saturday night. But even then it could be dicey with rain delays. I wouldn't be surprised if Game 2 in played on Monday. If it goes into Tuesday, Dew Points drop into the mid 60s. It's gonna suck to be a fan attending this event.
Hazy, Hot and Humid with a chance of afternoon or early evening thundershowers? Yawn!
May take all day, but with only one game a day these will happen. They only need 4 or 5 rain-free hours each day. So a 50% chance of rain in an individual hour means a 50% chance of play that hour. Friday looks worse, but that might be why this region was slated for that Saturday start.
I would guess if they really lost Saturday to weather they would squeeze in a double header on Sunday or Monday.
"It's gonna suck to be a fan attending this event." - Ummmm, I guess this says something about living in Mississippi, but for those living in Mississippi it will just be a typical weekend watching an SEC team in their beloved state.
