I wouldn't put much stock in it, its too far from game day. I looked again today and now the chance of precipitation was at 20% earlier today and now at 40% for ice pellets. I wonder if I can use those in a wrist-rocket?

Forecast for the Super Bowl
But that's a forecast for the whole day...it really only comes down to 2-3 hours before and during the game.

So, it could rain for 8 hours on Sunday (6am-2pm) and be dry for the game. And that's assuming they're even right about the forecast as of now.
And the game is after the sun goes down, so it won't be the 38deg high, so most likely any precipitation will be as snow if it happens. 
Although I think the high that day now is forecast as mid-40's with only 20% of showers

For some reason, I get great amusement in watching a forecast change as the days pass. I don't bash the weatherman because their job is about impossible (predicting the weather AND getting the average person to understand that 30% chance of rain on Sunday doesn't mean ALL of Chicago is 30% - only some part might be 30% while others is 0% and it also depends heavily on when too).
The weather will be kind of cold (30-40), maybe a little precipitation and might be a little windy. It's NJ in early February, you know what it's going to be.
If we planned a trip to Wisconsin for snowboarding this weekend, we'd be going if it was 0 or 32. Add more gear to the bag on Friday night. Simple.

Around about 1997, when Denver was winning it's 2 Super Bowls, and prior to that, Seattle was in the AFC west division, the same as the Denver Broncos. I wonder if any other Super Bowl matchup has included teams that were once in the same division. And Another reason to root for the Hawks, is those blasted Bronco's have never "won" a Super Bowl when the Cleveland Browns have been in the league. So there's that going for Cleveland. 
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

And/or has nothing to say. So move on.
I knew they were going to create a huge story about him refusing to play nice in interviews.
The media sucks.

I think it's pretty obvious he has some sort of social anxiety disorder. Yet the media thinks they have some god-given right to shove a microphone down his throat.

it's actually a contractual NFL-given right.
I do agree that it stinks they see a weakness in a player (anxiety or hatred of interviews), so they blow it up as a STORY and force-feed more interviews/attention onto him.

You get those laws/requirements when you're banking in millions and millions. His interview was very short, the NFL has already said they were satisfied with it - and it actually become one of the highlights of media day. With that said, I don't approve of forcing someone to talk to the public, especially when words are and get twisted up - but it is what it is. He doesn't have a typical job and the media is suppose to be the "bridge" between fans and the players, and the fans is what fuels nfl in terms of profit so.
In any case, I loved his interview:
"I'm all about that action, boss" - ha ha ha

I really don't think he has social anxiety. I just don't think he wants to talk. That said, his interviews are hilarious. http://www.youtube.com/v/fUm2CMdsgn0Someone's going to need to find the one that his FB is answering for him. Because that's a goldmine.

Same here.
He's a RB in the NFL and that means he HAS to be available to the media. That's all. I know someone could say he should be more willing to discuss himself and the game because he's lucky enough to be in that position, but who really cares? The media is really only looking to trap someone in a goofy statement. They don't like canned answers either.
He could pull a Rasheed Wallace and respond to every question with, "both teams played hard my man" or do what Marshawn was doing, "Not sure how I feel about the running gameplan, I know the play, the blocking assignments and then I run. I have nothing else to provide."

#1 Offense versus #1 Defense. both teams #1 seed in conference meeting in the SB, only the second time in 20 years?
this is gonna be one hell of a battle. you're right, its gonna be epic.
i'm thinking theres going to be atleast one quarter where no team scores, and at least one quarter where both teams completely light up the score board. with an epic defensive stance in the last 2 minutes!!

Yeah. My buddy says that's proof the NFL is fixed. They got tired of the blowouts etc.

The only way to stop Manning is for your front 4, not front 7, to play out of their minds. Blitzing Manning is pointless. He's seen everything. You need 7 guys defending the pass every play so Manning doesnt get the ball out in less than 2 seconds. If you blitz, he knows where the best option is, takes a 3 step drop max and gets it to his WR for a gain. With 7 guys defending the pass it means it will take him 3-4 seconds. That's enough time for your D-line to get to him. If I'm Seattle I try to rotate guys as much as I can and tell them to play insanely hard every snap they are out on the field.
The Giants stopped Brady twice because they had athletic freaks like Strahan, Tuck, Osi and JPP that got to Brady insanely quick. They also had DTs that dominated.

Not really  ) I only want Denver because I want all the idiots that are saying Peyton cannot win the big one, when in fact he already has won the big one. And that he needs another SB win to cement his legacy. I never heard anything so stupid.

I wonder if you asked either Marino and Trent Dilfer if they'd switch careers with the other, if either would... One of the best ever, HOF, Made one SB, never won one.. Or Trent Dilfer  (aka, below average career, won a Super Bowl, technically)

This is tough. I thought that 16-0 Patriots team was the most unstoppable team of all time. Brady to Moss was just a nightmare.
Seattles pass rush has to play like the Giants d-line didZ
