A nor’easter will batter the metropolitan area over the next three days and threaten to wash out the first two Angels-Yankees playoff games, according to AccuWeather.com.
The rain began yesterday and was given a 50 percent chance of impacting tonight’s Game 1 of the American League Championship Series. Bronx temperatures are expected to dip to 41 degrees at game time.
The chances of playing tomorrow night are even bleaker — with an 80 percent chance of rain and 43-degree temperatures.
But none of that could dampen Yankees catcher Jorge Posada’s spirits.
“This is Yankee weather,” Posada said. “It seems like every time we come home, it’s been raining. We deal with it, and they [the Angels] have to deal with it.”
There’s also an 80 percent chance of precipitation on Sunday, when the Jets play host to the Buffalo Bills.
