What was a waste?  Selfishly I would have loved him to live longer and act in many great films, but you could argue he lived more in his time here on earth than many will ever get to.  We all make destructive choices of varying levels, but I would hardly say anything about his life was a waste.

23% chance of rain at 10 am and by 12 it goes down to 3%. If u believe this shit then no it shouldn't rain by game time. Tailgate might need umbrellas

A rainy morning (sorry tailgaters) should give way to clearer skies by kickoff and temps should hover in the mid-60's for much of the game.

The brisk (15-20MPH, NNW) wind will keep things feeling cool and could restrict offenses attempting to pass or kick toward the north endzone. A few errant kicks due to odd wind swirls wouldn't be out of the question on either endzone.

Also, it probably wont snow tomorrow, but this is Michigan, fer-gosh-sakes

Back to you, Devin.

Rain or not michigan's gonna pound the ball the whole game to establish the run. Against UNLV that shouldn't b difficult hopefully. We need the weather to b good next week for BYU. Running the ball alone won't be enough to beat the cougs

I was just on the NWS site - it looks like the worst of the rain is expected between about 2 AM and 5 AM with precipitation potential taking a severe dip right before kickoff (estimate is about 20% at noon). If their hourly projection is right, the worst of the wind (gusts to near 30 MPH) will be during the game.

I just had to cancel my plans to fly in for the game this weekend. I should not be this bummed about missing a game against UNLV, but I am. I'm really bummed. Maybe it was because I was really happy we didn't have any MAC teams on the schedule for once.

love that movie.

In reagrds to the weather, there was a funny tweet going around last night showing the hourly forecast from weather dot com where it showed rain hour after hour until noon where all of a sudden its supposed to be sunny.  The accompanying quote said something to the effect of "after 16 straight hours of rain, Harbaugh said 'Let there be football'" . I LOL'ed. Cool story bro!

Should be spotty showers.  It currently looks like the worst of the rain will be overnight (10pm through 5am) tonight and as the day progresses tomorrow the chances for precipitation drop.  The worst of the precipitation appears to be staying to the north and west of us.

Should only impact tailgating. Worst case scenario maybe the 1st quarter could be wet, but the vast majority of the game should be dry, mid-60s. That's what I call good football weather!
