Rain Won't Damper 49ers Fan's Excitement

>> WELCOME BACK. TO THE 49ERS ARE JUST ONE WAY AWAY FROM THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. TOMORROW THAT WILL TAKE ON THE CAROLINA PANTHERS. SCOTT RATES HAS BEEN DEALING WITH THE CHANGING WEATHER IN CHARLOTTE. HE HAS MORE. >> GOOD MORNING. THE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE TREACHEROUS OUT HERE WOULD BE PUTTING IT LIGHTLY. IT HAS BEEN NASTY. RAIN AND WIND AND ALL OF THIS IS SUPPOSED TO CHANGE. >> HERE IS VIDEO THAT I SHOT AND YOU CONCEDE THAT THE FANS HAVE BEEN SETTING UP TENTS AROUND THE SE STADIUM. THERE WERE SOME CAROLINA FANS THAT SHOWED UP BEFORE RAIN AND THEY WERE WALKING AROUND GETTING A FEEL OF THINGS. THE 49ERS ALSO CHECKED INTO THEIR HOTEL YESTER DAY. THEY WERE SIGNING AUTOGRAPHS AND THEY MET WITH FANS WHO SHOWED UP. I SPOKE WITH THE FANS FROM BOTH TEAMS. >> I THINK BOTH OF THE TEAMS HAVE A GREAT DEFENSE. I THINK IT WILL BE UP TO THE OFFENSE THAT PLAYS THE BEST. >> WHAT WOULD BE YOUR MESSAGE FOR THE BAY AREA? >> I AM JUST HOPEFUL FOR A WIN. >> I THINK WE WILL COME OUT ON TOP BY A FIELD GOAL. >> I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE A CLOSE GAME. >> WHAT IS YOUR MESSAGE TO THE 49ERS FANS? >> YOU BETTER BE READY. >> ALL THE FANS ARE FIRED
