When are games postponed in STJFL due to weather?

[whocares4u]

Looks like poor weather for weekend...how is decision made for postponement of games due to poor weather or lighting strikes? Will games be pushed back a week if games are unable to be played?

We will follow UIL rules for calling or postponing a game.  If a game is postponed, we will not push the whole schedule back a week, the game or games will be looked at and determined if they have any affect on the play-offs or seeding.  If they need to be played they will be rescheduled.

after just now hearing the weather: I can 99% guarantee there will be no football this weekend.  Of course, we do live in Southeast Texas so anything could happen.

99% guarantee?? ;D

As long as their is no lightening there should be no problem with the teams playing.  We have sat through many football games played in the rain.

yep; didn't want to say 100 cause like i said, we live in se texas and ya just never know.  Case in point: my son's team played in PNG today in the rain!  no thundering and lightening but the wind did pick up several times and the sky got a bit darker then it already was. 

What a day!

usually all football sites will have a lightening meter. if the meter indicates a strike from 0-6 miles a thirty minute delay occurs, if another strike occurs in that thirty minutes you must wait another thirty

minutes. today in lumberton i dont think our meter ever recorded a close strike, a little wet but know
