Break out the "AQUA" pants

Geez, I don't mind the weather (for myself) but 80% of the time I go to Buffalo for the game the Fins lose, and I have been planning on going to this game.  I don't have tixs because my friends that have the season tixs sold them, but I could easily get good tixs.  Oh the trajedy.

The weather forecast up here will change at least 6 times between now and Sunday.  Either way it's going to be a bitch.

My daughter's soccer team played in 30 degree rainy weather last weekend against a team from Delaware.  Being a Florida boy I had no idea it could rain when it was below 32. If 16 year old Florida girls can deal with that in shorts I can't see why NFL players with parkas and heaters on the bench should ever have an excuse.  :o

Upstate NY weather has been pretty cold and snowy this year.  More snow coming to Buffalo today & tomorrow.

Yeah but by Friday they're saying it's going to be in the 40's again.  And I'm sure it'll change again in the morning.

Very worried about this game.  Our OLine will be tested.  Win this one and we're on our way.

15,000 unsold seats for this game and it will be blacked out in Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse.  The Bills CEO said they aren't buying up the un-sold tickets weeks to avoid a blackout

What's the drive time from NYC to Buffalo?

What's the drive time from NYC to Buffalo?

7 or 8 hours depending on traffic and the weather. Syracuse is in the middle of both sorta

Syracuse to Buffalo is 3 hours
Syracuse to NYC is 4-5 hours

So NYC to Buffalo is a good 7 hours at least probably a little more in the snowy weather

Wow.  I didn't realize the state was that big.  Everything seems so close together there.

It'd be like driving from Miami to Jacksonville for a game.  I've done it, but it's a haul.  And just getting out of NYC can take a long time.

Yeah the state is pretty big. The NYC area is like its own little area and a state into itself. Then from Albany-Syracuse-Rochester- Buffalo is like a whole different world. Nothing like the NYC area at all

Try Dallas to Corpus Christi some time. I have a sister that lives there. See her about once a year and that's when she travels back home to Illinois as Dallas is on the way (sort of). Interestingly it's further from Dallas to Corpus then NYC to Buffalo, but according to yahoo it's less driving time probably due to traffic conditions.

I have a friend who lives in Woodstock,  NY.  Upstate New York is a whole different world from New York City

Weather has taken a turn for the better. Near 50 on Sunday

I don't know about that.  The forecast I'm seeing calls for 80% chance of rain, 17 mph winds, and highs of mid 40's.  I'd rather see a game in the high 20's with some snow, than a cold windy rainy game.

I don't care how cold it is as long as it's sunny and clear

Actually this time of year it would be warmer if it was cloudy, as the clouds trap the heat.
