Dana White discussed the extensive weather preparations for the upcoming outdoor UFC event at the White House. The promotion will continue the event through rain or snow, but lightning is the only condition that would force a stoppage. White's team is coordinating with military weather experts who will provide updates every two hours starting 10 days out, and hourly updates in the final week. They are also working with companies experienced in outdoor concerts and have flexibility to shift the event's start time by up to two hours in either direction. White acknowledged his general dislike of outdoor events due to their unpredictable nature, noting that the only outdoor event he previously felt comfortable with was in Abu Dhabi where weather is highly predictable.
