The Pittsburgh Steelers versus Arizona Cardinals Week 13 game has been delayed due to severe weather. With lightning in the area, the game is being paused until it rolls past.
Severe weather was expected to roll in throughout the game. A light rain began early in the first half before turning to a downpour just before halftime with the Cardinals going on a 99-yard touchdown drive to take a 10-3 lead into the break.
At the half, messages at Acrisure Stadium instructed fans to leave the stands and seek shelter inside the concourses.
The game was announced delayed minutes later with teams staying in their locker rooms.
An unusually warm December game in Pittsburgh, it’s not known exactly how long the game will be delayed for. A quick glance at the radar indicates the worst of the storm will pass in roughly 15 minutes, though a rain will persist for most of the rest of the game. Per ESPN’s Brooke Pryor, the delay will continue until at least 3 PM/EST.
We’ll update this post when the game resumes. Arizona will receive the ball to start the second half.
