Visibility is poor to say the least.
Mayo v Tyrone is one of the biggest games in Division One of the National Football League today and will make for interesting viewing for spectators in attendance and those watching on TG4.
If they can see it.
As is the case in many parts of the country today, heavy fog has affected Castlebar and judging by some snaps from those on the ground in McHale Park, it’ll quite tough to see the ball in these conditions.

It was only three years ago that a National League game between Mayo and Dublin had to be postponed at the same venue because of heavy fog but hopefully that won’t happen again today.
Throw-in isn’t until 2pm so there is still plenty of time for the fog to lift and fingers crossed the game will go ahead without a fuss.
