July 23, 2011 TCF Stadium Minneapolis III: Stuck In A Heat Wave You Can't Get Out Of

[DRay9911]

GA is so far organized, but a mess...

Damn. It's early

I'm #83

 

[moneyman2u]

Is security running it and giving out numbers?

 

[Gwen]

You line guys are about to get drenched. It's black outside right now.....

 

[DRay9911]

when the rain comes...

we got wristbands 15 minutes ago. Security put numbers on them.

 

[arw]

this rain better be done soon and not come back again

 

[Gwen]

The TV weather guys said this morning's showers (down pour) will turn into high humidity and heat today and then storms tonite around 6 pm....

YeeHaw..

 

[arw]

just got this off of the weather channel......

Tonight: Scattered thunderstorms, some strong during the evening, will give way to partly cloudy skies after midnight. Storms may produce large hail and strong winds. Low 67F. SSE winds shifting to NW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

good luck everyone!

 

[blackhawksjon]

It seems as though most of the storms are supposed to be before 9PM. So there may be a silver lining....no Interpol

 

[Gwen]

"no interpol"

 

[DRay9911]

The line is around 330. The clouds and wind is keeping things cool. We have gone through a lot this morning. And it's only 915.

Good God, I hope my flight doesn't get delayed! oh, how i hate flying... and in storms. yikes.

 

[blackhawksjon]

What is going to be funny is once everyone gets in, and they evacuate for a storm, none of that waiting is going to matter. They will rush everyone back to start the show.

 

[arw]

the storm should be ending soon. I'm tracking it on weather.com. I'm about 20 minutes west of the stadium right now and it's starting to break. But unfortunately weather.com does not show anything past this afternoon....like 9 pm tonight

 

[blackhawksjon]

If you look at the hourly forecast it looks like at 9pm most of the storms are done.

 

[kramwest1]

hey all from last night. We almost shut the place down. Great time seeing everyone and talking.

I may stop by the line early today to say again.

Anyone need anything?

(within reason )

 

[KristenCaNaDiAn]

It was so awesome to meet everyone last night! Had a blast

 

[arw]

I show storms going til 11 pm on the hourly

 

[KristenCaNaDiAn]

Hope this doesn't post upside down

[blackhawksjon]

But the % is lower starting at 9PM. And they are scattered.

"In the howling wind, comes a stinging rain..."

OK my hubby just told me he'd drop me off at the line early while he searched for parking cuz I'm starting to get wierd about it. Whatta man! Didn't think I cared but I guess I was wrong. But does that mean he can't join me after he parks the car? Probably I guess....

 

[kitkat234]

We are in ga rather have the rain then heat.we have our wristbands but not numbered. I think it is well run so far

 

[kramwest1]

Is there free WiFi around the stadium?
I should bring my iPod Touch.

 

[snoopydoggy2002]

If anyone hears anything about someone or anyone here is looking to offload some GA tickets, I would love to buy 2 for my brother and myself. We already got tickets in the 2nd level, but are looking for some general admission. Hopefully with the rain they will be easy to find.
