CINCINNATI — It is finally the week many of you have waited for: Taylor Swift is coming to town.
She plays Friday, June 30 and Saturday, July 1 at Paycor Stadium. Each day a "Taygate" starts at noon at The Banks, with doors opening for the outdoor concert at 4:30 p.m.
Now the big question is, will Mother Nature cooperate?
Unfortunately storm chances are still showing up on both days, especially in the evening hours. The Storm Prediction Center even has a "slight risk" of severe storms over our entire area for Friday evening. With a cold front stalled over the Tri-State we'll see scattered showers and storms Friday evening and Saturday evening. This has been more consistent trend in the last 24 hours.
Here's a look at the forecast:
Here are a few snapshots below of the GFS weather model and what it's showing both evenings. As you can see, Saturday's storms look much more widespread than Friday's.
It does look like it will be warm and humid for both days as temperatures during the afternoon and evenings will be in the mid to upper 80s, maybe the 90s (especially Friday).
Either way, Swifties shouldn't be too worried: Multiple concerts on The Eras Tour have experienced rain, and Taylor has relished the moment as soon as it was safe to do so. Her concert in Nashville was delayed several hours due to lightning, but she still played her entire set. In Boston, Swift played some iconic numbers while it poured down rain at Gillette Stadium.
Just know... if it rains, "Don't Blame Me."
