Quick read

Dana White explained how the UFC will handle various weather conditions during the upcoming outdoor event at the White House. The promotion will continue through rain or snow, with lightning being the only condition that would halt the event. The UFC is working with the military, which provides weather forecasts 10 days in advance with updates every 2 hours initially and hourly updates 7 days before the event. They are also collaborating with a company experienced in outdoor concerts. White stated the event window can shift up to 2 hours in either direction if needed. He noted this is only the second outdoor event he has agreed to, the first being in Abu Dhabi where weather is highly predictable.
