Prior to this, the friendly match between Real Madrid and Barcelona was forced to pause for an hour due to thunderstorms and was eventually completed with difficulty. As per Relevo’s report, the friendly match between Real Madrid and Chelsea may also be affected by adverse weather conditions.
The National Hurricane Center in the United States has issued a warning stating that the previously observed tropical storm has evolved into a hurricane (with wind speeds of 119 km/h), named “Debbie,” which has now made landfall in Florida. Besides Florida, the most severely impacted areas are expected to be Georgia and South Carolina; Charlotte, North Carolina, where the Real Madrid friendly is taking place, will also be affected to some extent.
Real Madrid is scheduled to play against Chelsea at 7 AM on August 7th. Currently, the path and changes of Hurricane “Debbie” are being continuously tracked. Local weather forecasts predict rain, with the possibility of storms on the day of the match. If lightning is detected within an 8-kilometer radius, the match will be paused for half an hour.
