00:00We are taking a look at that football forecast coast to coast. I'm going to begin with a Friday evening matchup, and we're beginning here in the southwest because it's kind of a nail-biter of a forecast here in Provo, Utah.
00:13We're going to have a tough start to the forecast here on Friday, but during the day, the showers and the rain are going to be moving east and southeast.
00:21There's Friday night football here in the Salt Lake City metro. We're going to Provo Friday night, and just by the skin of our teeth, I do think most of the moisture is going to be out of here
00:29in time for the Oklahoma State-BYU game. Still a lot of clouds, chilly, so not necessarily pleasant given the wind, a little breezy. Before the game, north wind at 26 mph,
00:41so there will be some impacts here. Special teams could be impacted by some of the breeze, but the wind will be dying down throughout the course of the evening, and we're going to be drying back out, just bundle up.
00:50Weekend forecast. Most games in at least what was once known as Big Ten country, before the Big Ten began to look very different, even into California, we have a lot of warmth here into parts of the Plains, into the Midwest.
01:02Pleasant weather for the east, pretty good football weather here for a lot of us. Steamy into Texas, warm, not as hot as we were, but a lot of the most disruptive weather is kind of covering a localized area here into New Mexico, far western Kansas,
01:16generally missing a lot of the big time matchups. So again, the high impact weather, Clovis, New Mexico will be stormy, we have some rain into Denver, look out for that, and snow into the mountains here, but even most of the action is going to be well northwest of Austin, Texas.
01:30Here's a Saturday evening game, Georgia-Texas, this is a big game. We should be dry, fairly warm before the game, but being an evening game, temperatures will be a little more tolerable.
01:39Here's another Friday game up into West Lafayette, Oregon against Purdue, and we'll close with a look at Michigan-Illinois in Illinois with sunshine in the afternoon.
