Between 20:00 Tue 12th and 10:00 Wed 13th Very strong winds with gusts of 55-65 mph, perhaps reaching 75 mph in exposed places, are looking increasingly likely on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Longer journey times by road, rail and air are likely, with restrictions on roads and bridges. There is also a chance of power cuts, and damage to trees and perhaps buildings
I won't, seeing as it is 50 miles each way for me. I'm going to leave it as late as possible to decide whether or not to go. I'm leaning towards staying at home at the moment, but the temptation is strong as I have only seen ONE game so far this season.
The strong winds aren't forecast till after midnight but heavy rain is forecast for during the match. They'll still have the sprinklers on though.
