FSU football hopes to travel to Boston College on Saturday for its noon kickoff if Hurricane Lee doesn’t affect things too much.
I keep checking the weather, and tropical storm-force winds could extend up to 300 miles from the storm’s center, which means rain and likely some gusting winds if the game happens at the scheduled time.
