President Donald Trump’s highly anticipated UFC fighting event on the White House South Lawn appears more vulnerable to Washington, D.C.’s swampy summer weather and insect population than to any legal challenge. Severe weather may pose as much of a challenge as any fighter at Sunday's UFC Freedom 250 event on the South Lawn of the White House, with meteorologists warning of dangerous thunderstorms, lightning and extreme heat that could disrupt, or even halt, the historic $60 million card.
