Notre Dame vs Miami University Weather Report

What can Irish fans expect this Saturday?

As Notre Dame returns to South Bend to face Miami University on Saturday, fans aren't quite sure what to expect.

Will the team be prepared to play this game unlike the last time there was a home game? One would hope that'd be the case, but nobody will know for sure until Notre Dame proves it in front of the loyal home crowd.

While Irish fans don't have certainty regarding the quality of play they are going to get from their squad, the weather report looks much more certain. Heat is in the forecast.

This September will make a run at 2nd place for the most consecutive 80+ degree days in South Bend. Likely short of 21 days but could be more than 14 days. It also is likely to be in the top 10 if not top 5 or 3 driest Septembers ever on record. pic.twitter.com/vkDmTDstoN

Bring your sunscreen and stay hydrated

The forecast for South Bend Saturday calls for temperatures up near 90 degrees, partly cloudy with a gentle 7 mph wind. Irish fans will want to pack some sunscreen and stay hydrated throughout the day and for the duration of their tailgating experience.

Speaking of tailgating, I will be hosting an Always Irish tailgate party in the north parking lot all day leading up to game time on Saturday, all are welcome to stop by.

Look for my white logo flag flying high and feel free to stop by, say hello and have something to eat and enjoy a cold beverage as well.
