Weather for U.S. Open Start Looks Perfect

As Summer turns into Fall, tennis professionals and fans always look at the weather forecast for the days ahead at The U.S. Open.  So far, the weather looks ideal for the first week.  Seasonal temperatures in the 70's and clear to partly cloudy skies look to be the rule.

Bring a jacket or sweatshirt for those night matches.  As those men's matches stretch into the wee hours it will get a little cool.  Nice weather usually favors the top players, but look for long, close matches where it still pays to be the fittest player.

if the temps heat up into the 80's the ball tends to move faster.  That favors big servers like Andy Roddick, Ivo Karlovic, and John Isner.  As well as Venus and Serena on the women's side.
