Yesterday here peaked at 75'F but by midnight was 25'...we can get a full season's worth of temps in day due to flatness (neighboring city Plano means flat in Spanish) so bring layers, or at least liquid body heat.

Still about two weeks out, but current forecast is looking like it will be trending colder for Frisco, TX by Jan. 7.

Low of 28 Friday night into early Sat. AM. Forecast high of 44 and sunny on Sat, Jan. 7.

You can go inside and warm up in the River Club during the game IFF you have the NCAA Experience Hospitality Wristband. Purchase two wristbands for access in my ebay auction here: FCS Championship Hospitality Wristbands (2) A portion of the proceeds to the American Cancer Society.

Unless we get to single digits, my plan is still no jacket for maximum showing of purple.

Yeah I'll throw on under armour if I have to. Not wearing a jacket at any cost

Interesting, thanks. I pulled the data from the graph about halfway down on this Weather.com page when you hover over Jan. It's also listed on the right side in the Almanac section. Not sure why Weather.com shows different data than Intellicast:

Just need to plan for worst case being in the mid-30's and best case mid-50's. Wear layers that can be removed if need be. I don't want rain at those temps, makes the cold so much worse and no fun for the players.

Right now accuweather extended forecast has 60 & a chance of rain on Friday and 42 and cloudy on Saturday. Basically the warm weather has slowly been moving up and a cold front looks to be behind it. Lowest temp for the week leading up to Friday is 50 or something. We need whatever weather system is in their models to slow down just a bit.

Weather.com now showing am snow showers in Frisco on Jan 7!

Since the game is still two weeks out I am sure the forecast will change at least a dozen times between now and then. Keep an eye on it and prepare for all possibilities!!

49 and sunny for 1/7, would be atmospheric perfection for a National Championship game.

I don't know ...

2 degrees above zero worked well in Fargo ... :)

According to accuweather high of 56 low of 32.

Not to rain on the parade...

But the forecast won't start to be accurate from any source until 5-7 days out. Run to run variance in the models that are used to make forecasts is large outside of 7 days. Other than here, the forum I spend the most time on is a meteorology one. We'll have a good idea of what to expect as we nurse our hangovers after the new year.

Wouldn't the worst and best cases be the avg daily high plus/minus about 20 degreees? If so that would be worst case low 30s, best case low 70s, by the middle of the game..

65-70 worked well in Fargo..

It is 80 in Frisco today! Projected high on January 7 is 41! Quite a difference in 10 days!!

extended forecast says may be a snowstorm on the 6th in the DC area.

might make air travel difficult and/or delays.
