Weather Forecast for the 2020 UK Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine State Football Championships

[nWo]

Here's the outlook for the first day of the state football championships. For Friday look for partly to mostly cloudy skies for Friday afternoon into the night time hours. As of now little to no chance for precipitation.

 

The temperatures will start in the low 30s for the first game with wind-chills in the high 20s.

 

For the second game temp will rise to the mid 30s. The wind-chill should be low 30s.

For the early evening game look for temps to range from the mid to upper 30s and wind-chill in the low 30s.

 

 

The evening game will see temps fall to the low 30s around the start of the game. The wind-chill will make it feel like it is in the low 20s.

For Saturday look for widely scattered light showers. They will be hit and miss and for now don't look like too much of a nuisance. Temperatures will be  warmer than on Friday starting out ranging from the high 30s to low 40s.

 

For Saturday evening the temps will be in the low 40s.

 

I know this is not much because Saturday is at the very end of the NAM run so I can't get a detailed outlook for Saturday like Friday this evening. I will update  both tomorrow.

What about the ECWMF High-Res? Is it as detailed as NAM?

Not on the site I use. The high resolution ECWMF is but the major difference is the NAM is every three hours where the high resolution ECWMF is every six hours between frames.

Update for this weekend's games.

Temps will range will range from the high 20s around the start of the first game. If the clouds do break and allow some sun to peak through the temps could rise to the mid 30s. The wind-chill will be in the high 20s and rise to to the mid 30s during the afternoon. They will fall to the low to mid 20s by the end of the last game.

The temperatures will start out around the mid 30s then rise to the mid 40s during the day before they fall back to the high 30s for the evening games. The wind-chill will start out in the high 20s and will be almost the same as the air temps during the afternoon before falling back to the low 30s after the sun goes down.

Looks like you are right on the great football weather.

The weather looks to be pretty good for high school football this weekend. The good thing is that now it looks like the rain will hold off Saturday until the last game is over. Temps look to be seasonable for this time of year. Friday the temps will start out around the time of the first game  in the low 30s and reach a high in the 40's by late afternoon. Wind-chills will be negligible until the sun sets each evening.  Friday the wind-chill will be in the high to mid 20s.

 

 

Saturday looks to be even warmer. Temps look to be in the mid 30s around the time the first game kicks off with the high reaching the upper 40s. Wind-chill will be better than Friday. It probably won't be felt until around the end of the last game where the wind could make it feel like it is in the low 30s to high 20s.

 

 

Once again the rain looks to hold off until all the games have been played. I will definitly update everyone in the morning. 

On a side note, will there be a white Christmas for Kentucky next week? Check the weather forum later this evening for a possible first outlook. ❄️

No real changes in the forecast. Friday look for mostly sunny skies with highs in the high 30s. Friday night look for mostly cloudy skies with the temperature falling to the low 30s. Saturday the skies will be mostly cloudy with day time highs in the mid 40s. The temps will fall to the mid 30s. Sure looks like some great football weather this weekend.

Here's the forecast for today's games. Look for cloudy skies with a possible quick break in the clouds this afternoon. This may warm the temperatures up a couple of degrees. Today's high should be in the mid to upper 40s. The wind-chill will make it feel just a couple of degrees cooler. As of this morning it appears that the rain will not move into the Lexington area until around 10-11 pm tonight. If there are any changes in when the rain arrives I will post it in this thread.
