It was a nice article, I especially like the fact that they could have taken a photo of Main Street, facing the other way, to show the Historic Downtown, with the new renovations and the Pride marching downtown - a block long in their colors. Instead, let's show what bumkins we are with an elevator in the background and the cows dancing on Main Street for Hobo Days.
Nebraska vs SDSU Game Day Weather Forecast -- MAJOR CHANGES POSSIBLE -- see update
6:00PM CDT Kickoff... first autumn game of 2010...
Just a brief version now... will refine and detail this by Thursday.
That said, this appears to be a very easy forecast. (Huskerthill had a pretty reasonable guess on another thread.)
Saturday afternoon's high temperature will be between 74 and 80°... quite likely dry... quite likely a fair amount of sunshine (no worse than partly cloudy). One model does suggest an isolated rain shower -- but the odds are against it (no more than a 20% chance, and I'd downplay it quite a bit from there). By 6PM, the temperature will be in the low 70s then 60s from the 2nd quarter until the end of the game (around 60° at 9-10PM) and upper 50s for the post-game. Winds do not appear to be a significant factor.
MAJOR CHANGE TO THE FORECAST -- SEE POST #3
Today's (Thursday) update:
Thursday PM Update -- POTENTIAL SIGNIFICANT CHANGE
What looked like high, dry, and beautiful for Saturday has changed drastically in the past couple of days....
The models are increasingly adamant on developing an upper level low over the Central Plains Saturday before is shift southeast into the Mid-Mississippi Valley for Sunday.
Before I pinpoint this, I'd like one more day to get a close look at this... but for now, 70 to 75° for a high looks more likely -- 60s for much of the first half of the game and trending into the 50s late in the game. Some scattered rain showers are increasingly likely in the area that afternoon/evening.
I'll update this tomorrow (Friday).
This guy is usually pretty reliable. Have to check tomorow and see what he says.

Maybe we can pull the demons of that one wisconson team taht shall remain nameless and have a wet field to level the playing field. To bad its not real turf so it gets torn up and muddy.
