The second half of the Week 13 clash between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Arizona Cardinals at Acrisure Stadium has been delayed due to severe weather conditions in Pittsburgh.

There was a light drizzle during the game in the first quarter, before a heavy downpour occurred just before halftime. The heavy rainfall was then followed by lightning, which forced the players and coaching staff to head back into the dressing rooms.

Even fans at Acrisure Stadium were told to leave the stands and seek shelter inside the concourses.

The Cardinals took a shock 10-3 lead before the game was halted, when a five-yard pass from Kyler Murray was caught by Trey McBride for a touchdown.

Pittsburgh, on the other hand, will be concerned about Kenny Pickett's injury. The quarterback exited the game in the second quarter after sustaining an ankle injury on his right leg. He was replaced by Mitch Trubisky.

It was later announced that the Steelers-Cardinals game would not resume till at least 3:00 p.m. ET as the Pittsburgh area was expecting a few lightning storms.

However, at the time of writing, the third quarter is underway.
