Hurricane Irene affects start time of Jets-Giants clash

Hurricane Irene, which is being categorized as possibly the worst hurricane to hit the East Coast of the United States, ever, has caused the Jets vs. Giants match-up to be moved.

Originally scheduled for 7 pm, the battle of New York will now take place at 2 pm on Saturday afternoon, which gives fans who attend the game a chance to get home to be with their families.

Irene is scheduled to hit North Carolina sometime late today, and will slowly climb up the east coast.

It is not expected to hit New Jersey until 8 am, Sunday morning, but the storms presence will surely be felt in the next 48 hours, before it lands in the metropolitan area, with rain on Saturday.

Everyone is encouraged to stay home if they can.
