Friday's Football Just the Beginning of Your Weekend

1. Expect some decent wind gusts today, but nothing near hurricane force.

The National Weather Service says we should see sunny skies with the high just passing the 90-degree mark. Calm winds will increase to 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. The mercury drops to about 62 tonight under mostly clear skies, with winds of 5 to 10 mph eventually becoming calm.

Sunday so far looks to be about the same, though only slightly cooler and wind gusts only up to 20 mph during the daytime.

2. The East Paulding Raider Brigade Band was the fifth and final —all this week, we brought for you each weekday a video preview of each local band’s halftime shows. Did you see any of these bands perform last night? Did you photograph or video any of them? If you’ve answered “yes,” then we want to see what you came up with.

You can upload photos and video directly to an existing article. Click on the “Add your photos & videos” link on an article file. Show off your creativity or just make sure a photo of your son or daughter is posted on the site. The same applies to not just the bands, but also for football game coverage…
