Weather for tonights game?

[Texansfan 0]

Just saw on the news where Washington is getting slammed with snow and ice everywhere? Any homers shed some light on the weather forecast for the game tonight?

[Franknbeans 46]

snow showers 40% but I'm no homer.

[mahoney 9]

I think it'll be fine. If it snows again here today (it should) mostly the north (snohomish county-lynnwood, everett) aread should be affected. Game conditions should be fine, maybe a little cold.

Yesterday would've been another story.

looks promising, and it may snow

this could lead Mike to bench Hass at the last moment....

 

 

thanks to the rams beating the niners and giving cushion..why risk a hurt knee in THIS vs a subpar defense?

 

 

go seneca!!

Not for nothing but WTF is up with Seattle and their weather ?

 

I mean does the sun ever shine in that city or what ?

 

Never been there, and I don't mean to knock the people that do live there, but who the hell would want to live in a city where it rains almost every friging day (or so I hear/it seems) ???????

Your facts are as off base as your Falcons/Ravens lock of the year. Places such as NY, ATL, and DC get more avg rainfall per year than Seattle.

Yep, In Seattle it rains about 38 inches per year, about 1/2 of what it rains in New York City. Well the difference is that in New York it rains hard for an hour and then stops and the weather clears, well more or less. In Seattle it usually drizzles for long periods of time or it rains light.Summers are great though.Almost ZERO rain.

That may be true, but Seattle is far higher as far as the average number of rainy/overcast skies/precipitation days. Seattle has a lot of drizzle and few downpours, so the average rainfall is less, but I sure wouldn't want to live in a city that has clouds or rain approximately 2/3 of the year.

Another thing to consider is that during the winter it usually remains well above freezing, so that when other parts of the U.S. gets snow we end up with rain.

Agreed. As a Seattle native living in Los Angeles now for 12 years, I don't think I could move back. The people are really cool, smart and friendly and the city and surrounding areas are beautiful ... but the weather is really depressing. I think Seattle is where they discovered SAD (seasonal depressive disorder) where people basically sit under a sunlamp for a few hours every week just to counteract the depression of having a grey piece of paper hang over you head for 8 months. It's the coolest city in the US when the sun is shining for six weeks in the summer though!!

I was there late this summer and the weather was great. Terrific city, friendly people...and close to Vancouver, which is also a plus--but I just can't see waiting all that time each year for the several weeks of good weather. Also, there's no way I could ever root for the SeaHawks after they destroyed my team.

If weather is a constant issue in seattle why didn't they build a dome?

Well, it's a little like Texas stadium, wherein the roof covers most of the fans. I suppose because it provides the same kind of home field advantage that, say, Lambeau or Gillette offers the Packers and Patriots.

last I heard you could play football in the rain or snow or whatever

[bondrkm 0]

I work in Auburn (about 20 miles south of Seattle) it's been a funny day weather wise, I've seen snow flurries and then 10 minutes later the sun peeks through the clouds. It appears to be a cold night, but the field will be in great shape.

For what it's worth, it's my understanding that the November rainfall in Seattle is close to setting a new 1 month record.

[mahoney 9]

As a Seattle native, I love the gloom (not the rain) and the chill weather.

I was giddy like a kid when it snowed yesterday. I hate it when its hot outside...

Like I said I've never been there and I'm not knocking the people who do, but everything I HEAR says it's always shitty there...and I was wondering... never said anything about facts....

 

As for the dig about my bet...

How bout you check my gambling track record on this site before bashing my one bet... I'll dig them up if you really want me to go and look for them...... But The Colts game this week I said it would be a blood bath and they'd win by 20, and had Minny to beat Seattle outright a few weeks before that, I don't make many predictions, like people do every week, but when I do i'm usually dead on.... I can't predict that BJ Sams would play the game of his life like that, nor can anyone on this earth... If you watched that game you would know what I'm talkin about... Atlanta had that game....that should have been a FG game any way you slice it...

and denver has more sunny days per year than honolulu does.....

 

yay for weather talk..

 

anyway...its dark and gloomy in gb from nov-march..so i know how seattle feels...

[djrockstar 0]

Speaking to my brother in law right now in Woodinville, WA (about 15 minutes from stadium). Says the snow is coming down hard. They expect 3+ inches tonight.

Yeah, Seattle - ites refer to it , not as "rain", but they call it 'mist" It's misting outside, how faggish is that ?/??

[Texansfan 0]

I hope I'm wrong, but I have another forecast...

 

Gimpy Hasselbeck + Crappy weather = Reinjury and/or bad performance...

 

I was counting on him this week too, but doesn't sound good. I bet it's a low scoring S.Alexander vs. A.Green rush fest...

[mahoney 9]

I've lived in Seattle 10 years and grew up 30 mins from here. I've never once heard a Seattle-lite say it's "misting" outside.

[hines86rules 0]

How great is this weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[War Ensemble 0]

Made a last second switch...put Favre in for Hasselbeck.

 

Need 14 points to win the game and improve to 7-5....

[seadog54 20]

This weather is perfect for a football game!!

I have Josh Brown going tonight, luckily I didn't end up needing him.

Welcome to Frozen Latte confines of the Quest semi dome

 

Hass is having trouble

[Redstone 0]

Lived there for 30 years. It snows in Seattle between 0-7 days a year and hardly ever before New Years. We hit the weather lottery tonight. I would be surpised if it lasts the whole game.

yep.... the nation will totally think it snows a lot here.... when it really only snows for a couple days a year and it doesn't last very long when it does snow.

[War Ensemble 0]

I've been there twice, in the summer and winter. My mother in law lives in Edmonds, WA. I must say the whole Seattle area is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. Not sure if I could live there though.

I'm kinda feeling melancholy and miss Seattle watching this from SoCal. But I don't miss 8 months of gray mist. I do wish i was at the game though. GO HAWKS!!
