RENTON -- The Seahawks will bring the snow with them when theu travel to Green Bay to take on the Packers. With below-freezing temperatures and flurries forecast for the teams' matchup Sunday afternoon, the conditions should feel downright homey for a Seattle team experiencing unusually cold temperatures and snow in the Pacific Northwest this week.
Seattle practiced outside at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center in freezing temperatures Thursday in anticipation of the cold conditions at venerable Lambeau Field, but Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll wasn't too worried about the possibility of playing in wintry Wisconsin weather.
"It will probably be the same on both sides, unless it's snowing on one side and not the other side or something like that," Carroll joked in his Wednesday press conference from the VMAC.
