Arizona football delayed for lightning in Tucson

The Arizona football game against Weber State was delayed for inclement weather in Tucson on Saturday.

The Wildcats were scheduled to kickoff at 7 p.m. but wind gusts up to 60 mph and storms producing heavy rain and lightning in the area caused officials to delay the start of the game until 9:10 p.m.

Arizona is 1-0 on the season after a win in Week 1 over Hawaii.

Fans were allowed to reenter Arizona Stadium around 8:30 p.m.

Fans were encouraged to seek shelter outside of the stadium if possible.
