WASHINGTON — Besides some rain in the Pacific Northwest, it looks like we
clear out nicely for football games across the NFL on Sunday afternoon and
evening. We are dodging a few bullets with timing of the games and may have to
watch some snow in Green Bay, but it’s a fairly quiet week for your favorite
teams!
1 p.m.
Tennessee Titans at Baltimore Ravens, M&T Bank Stadium: A BEAUTIFUL
day in the Inner Harbor with temperatures in the low to mid 50s during the
game. There will be a mix of sun and clouds with a south wind at 5-10 mph.
Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills, Ralph Wilson Stadium:
There could be some isolated lake effect snow showers for the game, but for
the most part we are looking at the timing to be earlier (this will be
something to watch as we get closer to Sunday). If the moisture is still
around by game time, some wet snow with some rain could mix in, but anything
and everything will be light in nature. Temperatures will be chilly,
considering the winds. Air temperatures will top out around 40 degrees with
wind chills in the low to mid-30s. The wind will get going out of the
southwest at 15-20 mph with some gusts up to 30 mph at times.
Dallas Cowboys vs Jacksonville Jaguars, Wembley Stadium, London
England: Looking dry for the second game of this season to be played in
London, England! There could be a few showers in the morning but we will be
dry by game time, local time 6 p.m. (1 p.m. EST). Temperatures will fall from
the upper 40s into the mid-40s through the game. Winds will be light winds
partly cloudy skies. Local time sunset: 4:20 p.m.
Pittsburgh Steelers at New York Jets, MetLife Stadium: Another
gorgeous day along the east coast, with temperatures in the mid-50s for much
of the game. There will be plenty of sunshine with a light winds at 5 mph out
of the southwest.
Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Bucaneers, Raymond James Stadium:
Dodging some bullets here as an area of low pressure will move along a
stalled frontal system Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Expected the
rain to be out by kickoff however, things could change if that area of low
pressure moves a little slower than forecast. Right now just forecasting a wet
field from the recent rain and dry by kickoff with temperatures around 70
degrees and gradual clearing throughout the game. Temperatures will hang
around 70 degrees with a north winds at 5-10 mph.
4:05 p.m.
Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders, O.co Coliseum: A wonderful day
in Oakland with plenty of sunshine, warm temperatures in the lower to mid-70s
and a light wind.
4:25 p.m.
New York Giants at Seattle Seahwaks, Centurylink Field: This is
going to be a wet one, as a frontal system will dive through Seattle on Sunday
from British Columbia bringing rain with it. Expect rain through the game
under cloudy skies. Temperatures will be right around the lower to mid-50s
with a southwest wind 5-10 mph.
8:30 p.m.
Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers, Lambeau Field: We will have to
watch the timing of some snow/rain showers for this Sunday Night Football
game. Temperatures will be chilly, in the lower 30s with a wind chill in the
mid-20. The wind will be light however, northwest at 5-10 mph. Sunset at 4:32
p.m. will give way to partly cloudy skies during the evening. However, again,
there could be some light snow/rain showers early in the day that could bleed
into the evening (30%).
Monday Night Football, 8:30 p.m.
Carolina Panthers at Philadelphia Eagles, Lincoln Financial Field:
Sunset will be at 4:50 p.m. on this gorgeous day! Clear skies with the
influence of high pressure. Temperatures will move from the lower 50s into the
upper 40s with light winds.
