Plus, yet another storm is forecast to hit just 1 or 2 days before the game.
America is set for the coldest month of the century as forecasters predict yet another freezing blast of Arctic air – putting Super Bowl Sunday – to be held in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on February 2 - in jeopardy.
Teams have been warned to stay on high alert for changes to the schedule – meaning that the game could be postponed.
‘We are advising teams to prepare in case a contingency plan goes into effect,’ said Eric Grubman, NFL vice president of business operations, told the Denver Post.
The game could be moved to the preceding Friday or Saturday or the following Monday if authorities decide the weather will constitute a danger to public health.
If Super Bowl Sunday is moved to, say, Super Bowl Monday, the first people to find out will be Broncos coach John Fox and Seattle coach Pete Carroll.
Temperatures have already hit record lows, and are expected to plunge in the coming days.
Matt Rogers, president of Commodity Weather Group LLC, said: ‘The crazy thing is that the current cold snap this week look to be a bit more modest in the face of next week’s outbreak.
‘The cold coming for the end of January is sufficient to make this the coldest month of the century so far and the coldest the Lower 48 has felt in the last 20 years.’
So much for that gigantic con-job known as “global warming.”
