Updated weather forecast for Georgia-Alabama football game

The highly anticipated college football game between the Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide is expected to proceed as scheduled despite concerns regarding Hurricane Isaias. Weather forecasts suggest light rain but safe conditions for the match in Tuscaloosa.
Why it matters
The intersection of major sporting events and extreme weather events is a common concern for event logistics and public safety.
The Georgia Bulldogs (5-0) and the Alabama Crimson Tide (5-0) have been a huge headline all week long. There might not be another game being talked about more this week than the contest between the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide.
However, there is one topic that is receiving more attention than the big game Saturday and rightfully so. Hurricane Isaias has already made its impact throughout and obviously more important things are on the line but when talking about the Georgia-Alabama matchup and how the weather will be in Tuscaloosa, here is the latest update.
