PSA: Our football team could be playing in a Hurricane

I can see it now: "The University of Colorado Buffalos blew into Honolulu on the wings of Typhoon Ignacio and blew the Rainbows into the Pacific."
 
Good lord people. If we plan to lose to Hawaii, it's better not to go. If we don't plan to lose to Hawaii, it doesn't matter whether we play them or not.
 
Weather.com Thursday evening forecast. This changes often. For now, looks promising. BTW, what kind of turf do they have? Natural or artificial?
Temperature 77°
Chance of rain 40%
Showers in the evening, then clearing overnight. Low 77F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 40%.
 
Yeah. But typhoons can change that. Looks like this one is veering to the north. I'd have been sick if a damned typhoon messed this game up. I've been waiting for this game since the season ended, dammit.
We're gonna win
 
Anybody suggesting a canceled game, I give you a big middle finger.

This is a grand literary gesture for CU football. We died in a cyclone in Ames, Iowa ten years ago. Now, after a tumultuous decade, we will find ourselves washed up in the winds and rains of Hawaii. And we will be good again.
Hopefully "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and not "Gone With the Wind" or this could be "The Winter of our Discontent."
 
Won't affect the game, but travel out there might be an adventure. The team may leave Tuesday night or Wednesday morning and scrap the Pearl Harbor trip. I bet this will have an impact on attendance-thankful for the 11pm kick in that sense.
 
It might be past hawaii by the time the game starts. Unless it slows down. Its probable that there will be intermittent to constant rain for the game and gusty winds. It might be clear too. Hurricanes can be like that but typically when they pass things clear pretty quickly.

Delay of the game to Friday night or Saturday afternoon is probably the most prudent thing to do.

Delaying the game would not be prudent! Especially because there is no need and we'd lose the TV broadcast. Are you wacky? Haha.

From a weather friend...

PACIFIC UPDATE: IGNACIO: Ignacio is Passing to the north of the Hawaiian Islands, and even though the Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC) says he is degrading, he is only doing so slightly. Ignacio still packs winds of 120 knots, with winds gusting to 140kts, making this still a solid Cat 4 storm. Luckily, Hawaii is on the "west" side of this, so most of the state is only under a Tropical Storm Warning for the bulk of the next two days. Current pressure center is 948mb.

Andrew was a cat 4 storm.

Looks like we could be in the clear with it tracking more north now.
