Week 3 Football games begin moving up to Thursday due to impending nor'easter this weekend
Some Week 3 football games have been moved to Thursday to avoid the weekend nor'easter.
Week 3 high school football games in Connecticut are being rescheduled to Thursday due to an upcoming nor'easter expected to hit the state starting Friday. The storm is expected to bring northeast winds that could gust between 20 to 30 mph, with stronger gusts possible near the coast and in eastern and southeastern Connecticut. These conditions could make playing in the cold temperatures of the upper 50s to lower 60s even more challenging for players and spectators, with occasional showers also possible.
The affected games include New Britain vs. Maloney, Haddam-Killingworth vs. North Branford, and East Haven vs. Wilbur Cross/Career. Capital Prep/Achievement First at Valley Regional/Old Lyme and Waterbury Career vs. Ansonia have also seen scheduling changes. Meteorologist Dan Amarante advises that Friday evening's games are likely to be played in increasingly windy and cold conditions.
