Projected Weather For WrestleMania 37 Weekend (As Of April 9)

I have revisited Weather.com to once again see what the forecast is for the vicinity of Raymond James Stadium for WrestleMania weekend.

For tomorrow, it looks like Tampa will have sunny weather during the day. However, by nightfall, the website is projecting that it'll become cloudy when night begins to fall bringing in potential scattered thunderstorms.

As you'll be able to see in the snip I took from my visit to the website, the threat of isolated thunderstorms begins at around 2000hrs, which would be an hour into night one. Scattered thunderstorms are forecasted between the hours of 2100 and 2259 hours while thunderstorms are predicted for 2300hrs.

Seeing this weather being projected at the times when night one is in-progress makes me wonder if the event will experience weather delays during the show for its patrons to seek shelter. 

Thunderstorms are also on the cards for Sunday. Unlike Saturday, with the forecast for sunny weather during the day, Weather.com is listing thunderstorms throughout Sunday ranging from 'scattered' right through to Sunday night.

Tampa Weather For Sunday April 11th 2021

In regards to rainfall - Weather.com has given a seventy percent chance of rain to fall on Saturday night. This is up from the sixty percent I noted in last night's post.

For Sunday, the website has given a 90% chance of rain during the daytime (this is up 10% from when I wrote about the weather yesterday) and has 70% chance for Sunday night (also up 10%).

Kambi's proposition markets, in which customers can gamble whether or not 1mm of rain precipitation will be recorded by Weather.com on either night, were adjusted this morning.

The price for 'No' - meaning that less than 1mm of rain precipitation will be recorded in Raymond James Stadium's zip code on Saturday - was cut from 1/2 into 1/3. 

'Yes', which will be the winning bet if 1mm or more rain precipitation is recorded, will pay out at odds of 2/1. This is an increase from the previous price of 7/5.

Sunday's market now has 'Yes' at 1/4. This is down from 7/10 and is unsurprising considering that there is a high chance of rainfall for that day.  Its opposing selection of 'No' has jumped out to 5/2 from EVENS.

These markets being available have me curious to see what will happen if there is a thunderstorm during the event and what the reaction will be considering the usual protocol would be to seek shelter within the stadium building. This would be in conflict with the new policy in which ticketholders have been told 'you are not allowed to gather together in large groups away from your seat such as in the concourse.'

I'm also curious to see if there will be proposition markets in which customers could gamble whether or not there will be weather delays. I'd be intrigued to see the prices for those.
