Just in case anyone asks the Minnesota snowstorm that took the New York Giants by surprise was well forecast. This is an embarrassment for the Giants and NFL and a pain-in-the-ass for everyone else.
All week the forecast called for a chance of snow Saturday. By Wednesday it became “likely.” Winter Storm Watches were issued Thursday. A Blizzard Warning was up on Friday.
Turns out it didn’t matter all that much with the Metrodome roof deflated! What a nasty storm… MSP had hours and hours of blizzard conditions.
At least Detroit was spared otherwise the NFL would be in a real pickle. Brought back some scary memories of the Hartford Civic Center.
