Dolphins at Chiefs Weather Report and Forecast for Wild Card Weekend

by Kevin Roth (KevinRothWx) Last Updated 2024-07-26 12:01:09

The first round of NFL playoffs has a handful of ugly weather games, the first of which happens in Kansas City on Saturday night with temperatures that are absolutely frigid.

Below, we’ll break down the weather report and expected conditions to take into account for NFL betting and fantasy football purposes.

Weather Report for Dolphins at Chiefs

This is absolutely brutal weather for players and fans alike. The temperature by kickoff will be in the single digits and will fall below 0 degrees by the end of the game. There’s also a 10-15 mph sustained wind gusting of 20 mph, which will put the feels-like temperature between -10 and -20 degrees. To be clear, that’s 10 and 20 degrees below zero. Ouch. I’ll keep the forecast updated here on my NFL weather reports, and on Twitter, @KevinRothWx .

Betting & Fantasy Weather Notes

In general, temperature does not have a strong correlation to scoring, but on the extremes, it does matter… and this is most definitely what I would consider to be “extreme.” Cold weather makes long FGs harder, but it also is less than ideal for throwing and catching. It’s not as impactful as driving rain or strong winds, but it does have at least a minor impact on the game.

• Frigid temps near 0 degrees, with feels-like temp well below 0.
• 10-15 mph sustained winds, gusts 20-25 mph.
• No precipitation.
