Independence at Hough and Mallard Creek and Watauga are tough Second Round matchups for sure

Really don't see the snow as a factor. The wind and rain, yes.

Chance the game has to be moved due to the snow?

Anyone know about what the elevation of Watauga high is. I believe Avery Co high is the highest and then Watauga high and then Mitchell high

They’re considering moving the game to Saturday. No problem playing in the snow, there are concerns with roads traveling to the game.

Then if they could get to the game then issue could be traveling back home at night. Makes it a dangerous situation either way.

My son’s dream was always to have a snow game. He got a mud game in high school

I don’t know how much it will stay on the roads though. We haven’t had any cold weather up here yet. The ground isn’t that cold yet.

Boone will be crowded Saturday with App State playing at home.

 

[Vik-Val 86]

I will say if they do play this Friday night it will lot fun watching the game even if it was just enough snow to cover the ground some.

 

[KW23]

When will decision be made I was looking forward to this game

Snow, wind & rain....go Watauga!

If they do move to Saturday, I may get to attend. Ultimately, I don't want anyone from MC or Boone for that matter, being hurt while traveling up the mountain.

Snow game on a Friday night playoff game would be cool for the players to experience but if traveling safely up and down the mountain is in question, then postponing the game is inevitable, you have to do it to ensure safety.

My last football game it snowed pregame at Owen.

And it's homecoming. Granted the weather may keep some folks away. 40 cloudy and windy. I've seen alot of people trying to sell their tickets.

The game is on for Friday as of now.

 

[KW23]

Make up your minds lol

 

[Vik-Val 86]

looks like now most of the snow will be toward Avery, Mitchell, Yancey, Madison Co area. And even some in Buncombe Co. Watauga still could get some but not as much..

 

[Blue and Gold22]

If the travel is safe( you can actually drive when it snows) then it should absolutely be played Friday night. Awesome environment for the community.

 

[Vik-Val 86]

I see it’s already snowing up in the mountains and around the Beech Mountain area.

 

[Vik-Val 86]

Source coming from Meteorologist Brad Panovich, looks like 1-3 inches in the Boone area with higher amounts in higher elevations and mountain tops.
