The frozen tundra of...whatever Montana's field is called

Coastal Carolina is leaving Myrtle Beach....75 degrees right now,  for a playoff game against Montanna....the high Saturday is forecast to be 5 degrees.  Wind chill could be -19.  Ice up?

 

 

 

 

"Montana weather forecast worsens
As game time approaches, and the weather forecast becomes more clear, it's going to be an absolutely dreadful day in Missoula, Mont., home of the Grizzlies.
As of Thursday afternoon, the National Weather Service was predicting highs to only reach 5 degrees Fahrenheit.
What's worse, winds are forecast to be blowing 7 to 17 mph, with gusts to 29 mph. The wind chill is going to be hideous, if not unbearable.
If the mercury hits 5 degrees as predicted, winds of 10 mph will produce a wind chill of -10, according to National Weather Service wind chill charts.
In peak gusts near 29 mph, the wind chill could plunge as low as -19 degrees. At those levels, frostbite sets in within 30 minutes.
Moglia said Wednesday that the team will take several precautions, including wearing skull caps, multiple layers and serving hot soup at halftime.
There'll also be heaters on the sidelines and players have been practicing with cold footballs. Otherwise, Moglia said there's not much more that can be done since he estimated it takes up to six weeks for players used to South Carolina weather to adapt to Montana's polar climate."
