No rain forecast for Notre Dame’s Shillelagh Trophy clash with Purdue

Beautiful day for football.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – If you take a look at the above photo of Ross-Ade Stadium, you’ll notice it’s a beautiful day in West Lafayette. It’s a perfect indication that the weather will cooperate for Notre Dame’s renewed Shillelagh Trophy clash with Purdue. And if you don’t believe that for certain, look no further than the official AccuWeather forecast.

The forecast indicates that the temperature will hover around the upper 80s and lower 90s throughout the game under cloudy skies. But the clouds will be nothing than an illusion for precipitation.

Just for kicks, let’s take a look at what the weather will be back in South Bend during this game. The forecast calls for similar temperatures under mostly sunny skies.

The temperatures will drop into the lower 80s and eventually upper 70s by the time the Irish return to campus. Hopefully, they’ll have the Shillelagh Trophy earned via a victory with them.
