Boston braced for rain and thunderstorm during England vs Ghana
The bad news is Boston, where the England vs Ghana game is being hosted, is expected to be hit by rain and stormy weather tonight.
However, the good news is that the conditions are not expected to be as extreme and we should not see any major interruption to the schedule of play.
According to National Weather Service meteorologist Rob Megnia, there will be rain showers and potentially thunder, but he and those keeping an eye on the weather are "not overly concerned."
Conditions in Boston will be warm and wet, with temperatures in the low 70s during the day before dropping into the 50s through the night.
