Strong line of showers heading towards Foxborough


As if the Colts didn't have enough to worry about with the Patriots, strong winds and heavy rain will be a problem in the second half.


A cold front will move over Foxborough and Gillette Stadium between 9-9:45 p.m. ET. This will produce strong winds of 40-50 mph and torrential rain. Here is the weather statement from the National Weather Service:




...STRONG FRONT MOVING ACROSS BRISTOL...ESSEX...PLYMOUTH...NORFOLK...
EASTERN WORCESTER...SUFFOLK...MIDDLESEX...BRISTOL...NEWPORT...EASTERN
KENT...NORTHEASTERN WASHINGTON AND PROVIDENCE COUNTIES...

AT 820 PM EST...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR WAS TRACKING A
STRONG FRONT ALONG A LINE EXTENDING FROM NEAR ROYALSTON TO 22 MILES
EAST OF BLOCK ISLAND...AND WAS MOVING NORTH AT 50 MPH.

WIND GUSTS UP TO 40 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED AHEAD OF THIS FRONT.

THOSE PEOPLE OUTDOORS IN FOXBOROUGH ARE IN THE PATH OF THESE STORMS
AND SHOULD PREPARE FOR STRONG WINDS AND TORRENTIAL RAINFALL BETWEEN
845 PM TO 930 PM.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

TORRENTIAL RAINFALL WAS OCCURRING ALONG THIS FRONT. MINOR URBAN AND
POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING CAN BE EXPECTED. DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH FLOODED
ROADS.

This will make the run game and defense more important and cause struggles for the passing game.
