Weather casts foreboding shadow over the Atlanta Braves next three games
Briefly

With the Braves trailing the New York Mets by a single game for the second Wild Card slot after defeating the Metropolitans last night, and two games remaining in their three-game series, one more win against New York would clinch the tiebreaker if the two teams ended tied at the of the regular season.
An unpredictable and uncontrollable obstacle is looming over Atlanta - one that could wreak havoc on the final two games of the Braves and Mets series and the season's last tiff against the Kansas City Royals - the weather.
The near worst case for Atlanta would be the forced rescheduling of the next three games- Wednesday through Friday - leading to two double-headers in the last three days of the regular season.
This is the weather we are talking about, and things change hour-by-hour. As of 8 AM this morning, there was optimism about the storms leaving the area by game-time Friday night, although the severity of the rain and winds could impact the readiness of the field and the surrounding areas.
