WSET Game Time Weather report

Perhaps there is a completely legitimate reason for this that I just can't think of. That is why I am posting the question here. This morning I was watching Good Morning Virginia on the LOCAL ABC channel. When it was time for the weather report they gave game time weather for the Tech and UVA games tomorrow, but absolutely no mention of LU. They did the same thing last week, but I thought maybe I just missed it. I know that ABC has partnered with the team and they give us lots more coverage then they used to etc., so this isn't me trying to be critical of their lack of LU football coverage. It wouldn't really be that big of a deal, except I was really curious as to whether Hanna would be affecting us come kick off (or for a lot of you tailgating time!)

The great Dennis Carter conspiracy rears its ugly head once again.

Well and they have over 120,000 people that "need to know" and we're around 15,000....but yes that would have been nice

I understand there are way more people for UVA and Tech, but I bet their local news in Charlottesville and Blacksburg gives game time forecasts as well. It would only make sense that the local Lynchburg news would give forecast for the local college team...

According to weather.com rain is forecast for all day today, up until 7:00, when it's supposed to turn to "partly cloudy".

According to the view outside my window, the rain has stopped and the sun is starting to poke its way out.

I guess I should have posted this yesterday but oh well...that little 20 million dollar radar that the area has now (which airports such as LYH and Falwell can use) said that the weather should be breaking up around 11:30am today and be pretty good the rest of the day....it's 11:40am and sunny here now!

Talking radar? Telling you things? You need to patent that and you can just retire right now! 8)
