Weather for field of dreams game

[jaimedude]

Is Twins grounds crew involved in field of Dreams game tonight? I ask because the weather looks stormy with heavy rain for northern Iowa today. Think they are due for significant rain today. Makes me wonder about field conditions for tonight. Seems like rain and thunderstorms predicted most of evening. This game may have potential  to move to tomorrow night.

Yeah, not looking good. Haven't had a rain out all season either iirc.

If you build a dome they will come.

There is a weather guy for fantasy that is usually pretty accurate.  Right now he is saying the storms are showing to be just south of Dyersville.  But that any little change could put the game in jeopardy, he says we probably won't know more until closer to game time.

My question is what kind of drainage do they have, Target Field is pretty good, but I would guess they don't have the same drainage system.

Hope he's right - my Weather Underground app is showing 2.25 inches today for Dyersville. The field could be a mess if that comes to be. Probably not conditions you want your star player returning from a hip injury in...

If the field isn't a lake they will play.  Might be something pop up to today but no more than a delay.  I hope

That area has had a TON of rain all week.
