The afternoon Mets VS Cubs game may be significantly delayed this afternoon as a significant band of heavy rain slowly moves towards Chicago. The good news is that the majority of the severe thunderstorms will remain to the south. However, a large band of stratoform heavy rain will slowly move through the windy city this afternoon and will last for several hours.
Given this is the only time the Mets go to Chicago this year (weird, I know), I expect that MLB will make the Mets and Cubs wait out the rain for some time. The good news is that the rain will end by the late afternoon (after 5 PM) with clearing by this evening.
