I've looked on the BBC weather text, and it just says rain.

Looked ominous for Monday on BBC.

The used the "get out of jail" phrase - at the moment we dont know how far North the snow zone will be " - but if it is anywhere near what it showed it could well be pretty rough around game time

They also said the snow will be falling in the Hills but a significnt amount will fall at lower levels

As usual we will have to wait and see !

Looking ok from this latest BBC Prediction - added to our micro climate

https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/0/2651123

However as they say "keep watching - because it is unclear how far North the snow will travel"

If you like weather sites have a look at www.windy.com. I love it! You can see temp,wind,rain, cloud cover, etc all round the world.

That website sounds like one for nervous defenders Geoff.

Now forecasted to be hitting the north so we could be in danger of snow on Monday. If it is called off, it will be a busy end to the season at the Keepmoat as you would expect it to be rearranged for Tuesday 1st May. That would mean eight games in 28-days with five of the last six at home.

Latest Forecast really does look like disruption for us. Does not look good at all and seems to be worst at the worst time in the few hours before the game

Lap of the gods now - and we could get lucky !

Nah, they normally play in Ward Park.

Was beginning to think no-one was picking up on our local band.

The match will be on, we might not have the most pleasant time sitting out in it but I've no doubt about it being played.

If it doesn't snow properly until the game starts, I think it'll be fine. I think a lot of refs at this stage of the season will have the common sense to get games played and not call it off, when it can be avoided, due to 'elf and 'sefty.

This kind of thread is useful for those of us travelling from a distance, but this kind of post doesn’t really inform too well.

‘If it doesn’t snow properly until the game starts, I think it’ll be fine’.

Truth is - nobody can actually know.They can predict / Forecast etc and we the proles on here can offer our opinions and gut feelings ....

... but weather being a natural entity is ever changing and we will only know for sure tomorrow. Personally the Forecast looks poor but - its a no shit sherlock statement - we will just have to hope it misses us

Pancho, when it comes to bad weather, Doncaster is the land of milk and honey.

... and here more now we have got nearer

Forecast (Even they dont get it that wrong so close) says rain rain rain and then more than likely dry at KO time

Panic looks to be over ! 3-0 as well (heap on - at least one of those predictions lol)

And the sprinklers will still be used before the game and at half time.
