Actually, we get something fairly frequently in the late fall that I don't understand. It will be in the upper 30's and rain during the night. Then, right before dawn, it will clear up. Then, even though the temp never drops blow the upper-30's, every thing will flash over into ice. I'll be out chipping thick ice off of the car in the morning, even though the temp is 36°.

You get your ass out there for the biggest game in 20 years..

This. If someone wants to fly me and my wife out there we'll go as KC surrogates. I'll yell my guts out. I want to see a KC rematch at Foxborough dang it!

I think that the players and coaches are turning their tickets for family and friend back to the box office. Many great unsold tickets were newly listed today in the Lower Level. Still can't believe they haven't dropped the price on those unsold Club Level tickets. Still $425

I'm about 200 miles away, season ticket holder & go to 4-5 games per year. Been watching weather & it's driving me nuts, hard to get excited for what should be best arrowhead atmosphere in a LONG time. I just reserved rooms in KC for Saturday night. Gonna head down day before then hope we can get to stadium at least. This isn't looking good....

I would say the worse it'll be is 20k Pitt fans and 55k KC fans. I just don't see it topping that.

What day are you leaving? Today? I was thinking of leaving tomorrow around noon so I could arrive in KC before it starts. After looking at Joplin forecast, that crap is supposed to hit there mid afternoon tomorrow. Now I am bumfuzzeled because it looks like I will be driving through it to get to KC if I leave early.

One of the slickest roads I ever drove on was I-29 coming back from Omaha. The outside temp was 41, but it was raining nothing but freezing rain and sleet. Something about it being cold right above ground level so it fell frozen. It would land and melt, but the other frozen precip would hit the melted ice on the road and just made everything slicker than whale shit in the Arctic Ocean. Fun times, those.

Got a room at the Argosy Casino for after the game.

Getting to Arrowhead may be a bitch but its going to warm up enough there shouldn't be significant ice anywhere.

Leave early to get there and drive slow.

Nice. The rooms at Argosy are surprisingly good, you'll enjoy it there (but be warned - the blackjack tables are NOT kind there, lol).

Safe travels.

Thanks. Good info, I love Blackjack.

There are Steeler fans everywhere. Some will probably already be in KC, but I actually wonder if the ice will keep some of them away.

Still three days to go. The way they're talking, I don't think the wind is going to be high enough to really make this a devastating storm. But we're talking about the football game here. Even if this thing shifts north or south and amounts are less, even a 0.10" icing will make getting to the game and sitting out there a pretty miserable experience. There's no such thing as a good ice storm.
