That wind forecast is during the day. I'd imagine once 8:15pm rolls around, that wind is going to pick up more. However, the precip might be gone by then...

It's not gonna be pretty. We absolutely CANNOT settle for FGs in this one. The swirling winds are gonna make kicking conditions miserable. Eeesh.

The wind at Giants Stadium is not what it used to be. The stadium used to be somewhat open at the endzones. Not open in the sense of a converted baseball stadium, but behind the seats and concourses. However, they recently closed it off, and the wind has been cut down tremendously. A friend has season tickets in section 125, which is in the lower corners and years ago, he used to get a bitter cold draft behind him. Doesnt happen anymore. Not sure my post makes sense if you are reading it in English, sorry for that.
