There is a bad line of thunderstorms creeping toward Pittsburgh that could affect that match. Due to arrive around kickoff. cross yer fingers

That line of TSRA caused a right mess as it passed through the Midwest. If it intensifies, with moisture being pumped up from the Gulf of Mexico, it could be a bad one. Will all depend on where the line is and how quickly it reaches/moves through. Always possible they can take the teams off for 20-30 mins, as they did for England in Miami. These things often move at 50-60mph, so they can come and go pretty quick, but can be bad news while they are passing overhead.

Fingers crossed.

Just issued in the last hour, kick off in one hour....

Tornado Watch in Pennsylvania

Active for next 6 hours

Here is a link to the weather radar for the Ohio Valley, to include Pittsburgh. Not looking too good!

Current temp is 81F/28C, with gusty winds out of the south @ 10-20mph, and scattered clouds (<50% cloud cover) at 3100', 50-90% coverage at 4800' and overcast (100%) @ 22,000'

From 3pm...southerly winds at 10 mph, good visibility, showers in the vicinity, 50-90% cloud cover at 3500'

A guess or is that confirmed?
 
Re: City v Milan @ Pittsburgh 27th July

Interesting that Rodwell and Huws aren't getting starts now. Is Huws being kept fit for the Wigan loan and is Rodwell injured or are they expecting someone to sign him so don't want him getting injured?

I just viewed another radar map for updated information and it really seems as if the match will cancelled as the storm would remain in the area (due to size and speed) for three to four hours, as indicated above.

I was very much looking forward to the match but safety for everyone involved comes first.
