I dunno about you guys but thank christ it was the bye week last week. This has been a super stressful season but in a way these years make me appreciate the good years soooooo much more. Regardless we're 3-0 in the ACC and can still achieve most of our preseason goals despite the constant on again off again level of play!!!!
So lets get into the weather for this thursday night showdown with da bees
Paul Johnson fits in well
As I'm sure you've all heard another category 5 storm came and went into the Mexican shore doing a shit ton of damage. Why should we care, you might be asking? Well the leftover of this storm will be coming this weekend meaning UVA and UNCs wine and cheese social might get a little messy.
seriously active hurricane season in the Atlantic
However we're lucking out that we are playing on thursday as the high pressure system stationed overhead gives us more glorious weather. However expect temperatures to be a tad temperature as fall has absolutely taken hold at this point. Also expect some cloud cover which is good news as the game wont get TO cold as the night progresses
maroon and orange leaves
For those of you staying the weekend however bring some ponchos and be ready for some pretty serious rainfall and temperatures to drop to about freezing friday night. However thanks to the cloud cover mentioned earlier temperatures should hover around 40 Thursday night.
How this plays out on the field: I have no goddamn clue, this tech team is a friggin enigma but man I'd love to beat the hell out of GT this year.
that smug face is just so damn punchable
Final forecasts:
High: 57
Low: 38
Pretty cloudy
Winds: little to no winds
GO HOKIES!!!!!

Thank you for the Bee chart,mI have spent years trying to convince my wife that all Bee's will not sting you. She might believe that the striped flys are harmless now.
Protect the honeybees, pet the bumblebees, burn the rest to the f**kin ground.
Basically, leave all bees alone and you'll be fine. Except for yellow jackets. They are indeed assholes. They also hate guns firing. Seriously, I learned this the hard way over Labor Day. We need our offense to score early and often to anger them with the Skipper firing over and over
I was lit up this summer while mowing by yellow jackets that had taken over a newly vacant mole hole. I hope we take revenge against GT with exactly as much gusto and extreme prejudice as I showed those bastards.
Tennis rackets work well, I leaned as a child. Good surface area, less air resistance so you can swing it faster, and it's not likely they make it through the holes without serious injury. Swat them all, I say.
Didn't have the chance. I didn't know the nest was there until I had mowed over it. By then it was too late.
I got hit twice by yellow jackets this summer (different places in the yard). I know that you don't have to light the gasoline you pour down their hole, but gorrammit if that didn't help with the psychological healing process.
Oh, how I wanted to light it!!! Unfortunately, it was mere feet from the gas line coming into the house. I would have won the battle but surely lost the war.
As a young teen, I was mowing with a side chute mower with no bag attached and ran over a yellow jacket nest shooting it out the side. I had tied a rag around the handle to keep the engine going and the angry jackets stung me about 75 times. Got hives and had to take prednisone for a month! Hated the bastards since then! Hope we crush them tonight!
Side note-my little sister was a pain in the a** (is even more so now 30-40 years later) and after I ran away from the mower I told her to go over and turn it off. She only got stung about ten times. Ah siblings!
I was attacked by hornets as a child when a baseball I was playing catch with rolled under the wrong tree. Went into anaphylaxis and nearly died in the ER because that's how it was discovered I'm allergic to the venom, or at least, I was. Allergy shots are my friend.
To this day if I hear the buzz of any insect, my first response is KILL IT WITH FIRE.
That is the appropriate response.
Hey they are reprogramming the GFS model Eshiben. How about that?
Hadn't heard about that but well be playing catchup on the euro forever. Were already behind and Germany literally has an office of scientists and programmers constantly updating it. Until we have that theres no way in hell we catch it
You're doing the Lord's work here, eshiben5. God bless you.
All other weather forecasters: living in 2018
eshiben: living in 3018
As long as they don't go full temperature. They should never go full temperature.
Clouds a tad cloud that day from what I'm reading at other sources.
Tad low my b, tailgating started a little early last night!
