A soggy field appears almost certain for Saturday’s football game between the University of Louisville and North Carolina State. Rain has been falling all week and is expected to continue during the game.
Hurricane Joaquin could have a significant impact one way or another, the wind affecting the kicking game, the rainfall or drizzle making things difficult for receivers and a muddy field slowing down the running game.
Or the storm could turn and hit landfall farther north.
Back in 2011, my wife and I were on a cruise to the Bahamas when Hurricane Irene formed in the Atlantic.
