New York Gov. Kathy Hochul assured NFL fans on Sunday that the playoff game between the Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers will go on despite the snowstorm that struck the area over the weekend.

The game was moved to Monday evening as the storm rolled through on Saturday. The game was originally set for Sunday afternoon.

“Game time on Monday, weather conditions will be very cold. They’ll be in the teens, and even wind-chill factors as low as zero, maybe to 9 degrees, but that’s going to be very, very cold,” Hochul said at a news conference on Sunday. “But this will be without the danger of the winds and the blinding snow and the hazardous traffic conditions for those as they traveled to the stadium or leaving based on current predictions.”

“So, that is a better dynamic, by far better dynamic, than we would’ve had today. I’m not saying it’s going to be pleasant, but conditions won’t be life-threatening either.”

Hochul posted a video of what the Bills’ hometown of Orchard Park, New York, looked like at game time.

“No visibility and dangerously high winds,” she wrote on X.

The Orchard Park area saw 9 inches of snow come through, according to the Buffalo News. Erie County was still under a travel ban because of the dangerous conditions.

According to the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle, wind gusts could reach up to 25 mph. Temperatures are expected to be as high as 19 degrees and as low as 10 degrees.

Chicago White Sox slugger Munetaka Murakami has already proven doubters wrong by launching 17 home runs, Pittsburgh’s Paul Skenes consistently looks like the best version of himself on the mound and Milwaukee ace Jacob Misiorowski is throwing harder than any starter in the majors.

I Need a Pridefest Buddy – Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents

I Need a Pridefest Buddy – Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents

Amidst over 70 Pride festivals in Pennsylvania, I stand alone as none of my friends want to go. Not the big Pittsburgh Pride, not the small community park festivals.

This feels upside down. I’m a lesbian blogger and have no Pride friends?

I respect personal decisions, but this is a year to show up. Show up even just for an hour. Buy something, throw some coin in a basket. Our community might crumble. Showing up for Pride is not the same ask as door knocking or phone banking. Connect with people without saying a word. Remind yourself who we are. Send a message. Insert more little sayings. You get my point.

I decided to skip tabling this year. My energy is low. If I go to Pride, I want to just be one of the folx.

I wouldn’t actually mind going solo, but I have no vehicle. Gertie is still not running. Should I Uber? How long might I have to wait for a drive home?

Tomorrow, May 31 is Ross Township. I might Uber there.

Saturday, June 6 is New Castle Pride in Lawrence County.

Sunday June 7 is Pittsburgh and Connellsville. I can walk to Pittsburgh.

Saturday June 13 is tough – Indiana, Oil City, Mt. Lebo, Scottdale

Sunday, June 14 is Vandergrift and Freeport

Saturday June 20 is Millvale

Sunday June 28 is Forest Hills, Dormont, and Hazelwood

Monday June 29 is Aspinwall/Fox Chapel

Showing up in Lawrence, Fayette, Indiana, Venango, Westmoreland, Armstrong counties feels important.

What do you think?
