The snow % for Monday went way up in the past 24 hours.  The winds look better at 10-20mph and hopefully no whiteout conditions.  Just a real wintry week ahead, looks like a few inches of snow nearly every day.

If they were gonna shift the game, they should have moved it up to Saturday. I have no idea why you wouldn’t want the game to be played before the system rolls in. Not while it’s in and hope it pans out

Yeah I saw that. I meant play it today at 1pm right before all this stuff started to become a factor. Cause now it’s gonna drag on and potentially affect the follow on week pretty drastically

They could have played it at Saturday at 1:00... I was driving into orchard Park and it was playable weather

 

Now we were scheduled from Sunday for the get-go...

 

But they knew this was possible since Wednesday Thursday and yeah early Saturday easily could have been playable

If they were to do that, they would have to decided by Thursday due to travel arrangements for the Steelers.

Is it possible they change the stadium to one with a dome? In the long run, it's better.


I mean… not one game ever has been suspended because of weather due to an open stadium. 
 

90% of those games suspended were because of September hurricanes. The Minnesota game was suspended FROM a dome. 
 

The Bills game have been suspended because of public safety, not because the game would be played outside. A dome does zero to alleviate these suspensions. We understand this, right?

The Steelers aren’t even in Buffalo until tomorrow afternoon.

Hence why I said... They've known this could be possible since Wednesday... If the league scheduled it on Saturday ASAP it would not have been a problem

 

If the league on Wednesday changed it to Saturday the Steelers could have been here

I know. It’s like playing cards with your brother’s kids sometimes.

Nice thing about the game being postponed a day is we get to enjoy a day of the Dolphins loss no matter what, before the pressure of our game. We need to get our job done to keep the enjoyment going.

Does anyone know what snow totals are at the stadium now?

 

Total guess judging only from radar returns: Maybe 8" so far?

Probably a bit more to the south of Orchard Park.

Band is sliding northward now and it will likely start piling up more overnight.
