Well the weather report here as of now is calling for 10-15 inches of snow starting late Saturday and lasting thru sometime Sunday.
I'm sure it'll be the same in PA for the games Sunday.

Brrrrr! Cold, possible snow forecast for AFC, NFC championship games
January 19, 2005
Brrrr! There could be snow at both NFL conference championship games.
Forecasters are calling for gametime temperatures of 20 degrees and a chance of snow showers for Sunday night's Patriots-Steelers AFC championship game. There is a chance of heavier snowfall earlier in the day, but it is expected to stop by kickoff.
The weather could be worse across the state in Philadelphia for the NFC championship game between the Falcons and Eagles in the afternoon. Snow is predicted this weekend, with anywhere from a minimal amount to a major storm.
Similar conditions in Foxboro last weekend might have aided the Patriots in their 20-3 victory over the Colts, whose Peyton Manning-led passing offense was limited to a field goal on a snowy, cold day.
It was dry but chilly for the Steelers' 20-17 overtime win Saturday over the Jets, with gametime temperatures of 28.
NFL rules say the field should be covered on the day and night before a game if there is any chance of precipitation. The Steelers usually keep Heinz Field covered, though it was left uncovered during some recent warm days to encourage the grass to grow.
The weather could be a factor in Philadelphia, considering the Falcons play in a dome -- although they went to Lambeau Field and beat the Green Bay Packers in snow two years ago in the playoffs.
Falcons quarterback Michael Vick said that was the only time he's ever played in snow. Eagles QB Donovan McNabb grew up in Chicago, so he's used to cold weather.
``We've come out on top when I've played in it, so hopefully we can continue that streak,'' McNabb said.
It was snowing and the temperatures were in the low 20s on Wednesday, but that didn't affect Eagles coach Andy Reid, who wore shorts.
``Sometimes I forget to put my sweats on before I go out,'' Reid said.
The Steelers stayed inside to practice on a snowy day in Pittsburgh.
``When the elements get bad, you have to make sure you're mentally sharp,'' Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said. ``Fundamentals come back into play big time.''

Let me guess, your living room.
I didn't mean that to be a riddle.
LMFAO!
A local sportscaster here just did a bit with a zoologist comapring falcons and eagles.
She (the zoologist) equates Vick with a Peregrine Falcon and how they dive at 200 mph.
Then she summarizes with "Eagles, however, are far more powerful overall.....it's no contest".
Can't believe they ran the piece......
I actually laughed out loud.
Lik i said last night, id lovew to see it, that would be in leverage
to the pittsburgh defense..sweet
underdog, man i wish i could bet this weekend.

Yeah, just looked on weather.com...
Looking like about 22 and some snow, but not that much accumulation at all....
If I were a Pats fan, and I'm not, I'd be wishing for clear skies and dry....
You get into a smash-mouth running game vs. the Steelers, you will lose....

The Pats have played in snow plenty of times before, I really don't think it's going to make them less likely to lose.Originally posted by Va Beach VH Fan

I can't wait to come on here on Sunday night, maybe end of the 3rd quarter when the Pats are up something like 13-3 and it's obvious that Cowher will lose in a big game, again.
Too bad the fucking NFL won't allow the Super Bowl to happen where it snows!

I do agree with the snow comment...
unless I'm on crack...I seem to recall the Pats playing well...hmmm...about a million times in the snow...
yeah...the Steelers will be able to run the ball...but it won't be because of the snow...
I agree with that too.Originally posted by DLR7884

I'm an Earth Science teacher for chrissakes...I TEACH THIS SHIT!
just had to vent. I'm here in NYC, and everyone is treating this like the end of the world: "Oooo, go buy salt! Make sure you have enough food! Do we have juice?"
Hello? we're not living in the stone-age, having to forage for food and find some cave to hide in.
fuckin' hell. go to the video store, rent some flicks, and order chinese in.
I would say that with the forcast 50+ mph tonight, that this isnt a storm to screw around with. Yes, I agree with you that people usually do overreact to snow storms, but this one could be bad...
I hear ya.Originally posted by academic punk

You know what's fucked up bro. The way everyone grocery shops like they're going to be stuck inside for 17 days.
My wife went out this AM just to get a few necesseties (sp?) and she said that the cupboards were bare.
You have know idea gents...what it's like...
Here in Raleigh...1 fucking inch of snow brought complete citywide gridlock last Wednesday...
what kind of gridlock?
It took me 5 hours to get home from work...I live 15 miles away...
thank god I was going South...
people going to North Raleigh...and coming in from Chapel Hill...
left at 1...and weren't getting home to midnight...
they cancelled school the following day...40 degrees...no snow on the ground...and 2 hour delay the following day...
we are in the middle of a snow storm right now...they break in every 20 minutes to tell us so...
and it's raining...
yeah, I was once in atlanta in january and I think five or so flakes fell.
The city went into full state-of-emergency mode, complete with schools and workplaces being let out early, traffic jams and accidents, and people ransacking their local Piggly-Wiggly for every last box of Cocoa Puffs.
Okay, maybe SIX flakes.
I loved it...they are out dropping salt in the rain...lmfao...
and saying, "We did all we could...we dropped the salt..."
Um...dumbasses...the rain WASHES IT AWAY YOU STUPID FUCKS!
What can you say about the fucking south...lmfao...
Holy crap! There is a blizzard outside here, we're talking
up to a foot of snow when it ends. We'll still have to go
to work....or the bar...
Just got back in from the first round of shoveling...4 inches of light, fluffy snow.
We're missing the whole thing...
The storm that is...
Pretty much the same thing here Wednesday bro...Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Some bridges were complete sheets of ice....
You know as well as I do, half of the problem is that these hicks down here, who already drive like it's fucking Talladega, think they can do the same thing when it's snow and ice on the roads....
The sun is shining brightly here now. All shoveled out and ready for some football!
The storm is over and outta here.
Dang & here i thought it would be shitty & sliding all over the field.
Hope the games live up to the expectations..no blow outs please
