England’s World Cup quarter-final against Norway in Miami is set to be played on Saturday night, but multiple reports say the match could be delayed or postponed due to a forecast of severe weather. Outlets including Yahoo Sports and local UK publications report thunderstorms are expected around kick-off time, creating concerns about safety and possible FIFA disruption. The Irish Mirror and Daily Record add that heat and storms are part of the risk profile for the fixture, pointing to potential impact from scorching temperatures alongside developing weather systems. The Mirror also links the issue to recent precedent, noting thunderstorms previously delayed England’s World Cup round-of-16 match against Mexico, and suggesting weather could again affect scheduling for the quarter-final. While the scheduled kick-off time is still being communicated, the overall consensus across sources is that forecasts are being closely monitored and that the start of the match may change if conditions worsen. No source confirms a postponement yet; the reports frame it as contingency planning based on the latest weather outlook.
