Looks like that is during FRC load-in time, so prepare accordingly so you don't get caught out in it.

I wonder if there is a possibility that FIRST could allow load-in prior to 1pm, or allow pre-staging inside the big doors rather than the sidewalk. This would decrease the amount of teams caught in the the storm.
It's probably
more up to the venue and possibility of getting early volunteers than what's desired though. My team will have adults capable of fulfilling the temporary spots, if need be.
