The UFC’s White House event could face some weather issues.
Ahead of the event, UFC CEO Dana White says he’s been working with the military to forecast the weather.
“We’re working with the military.” White told Fox News’ Lara Trump. “So the military knows the weather ten days out, and they’ll notify us every two hours, ten days out. Seven days out, they’ll notify us every hour.”
One week out from the event, AccuWeather reports a 65 percent chance of rain and a 39 percent chance of thunderstorms during the event.

Rain would put a damper on the night, but White has already said that the only thing that would stop the event is lightning.
“And we’ve gone over this, you know. If it rains, we’re going. If it snows, we’re going. The only thing that will stop us is lightning.”
