NFL Week 2 Weather Report: Betting and Fantasy Football Impact

justin-fields-800x480

After Week 1 brought widespread weather implications, weather in Week 2 should be a bit less of an issue, though there are still some games to monitor.

This NFL weather article will highlight any extreme temperatures, precipitation, and most importantly, high winds that we could see across the NFL landscape this week.

If a game isn’t specifically listed in this week’s report, that means the weather is quiet enough for it not to be an issue in that particular game.

NFL Week 2 Weather Report & Forecast

As always, it’s best to stay up to date with the very latest forecasts, so follow me on Twitter @KevinRothWx and keep an eye on my NFL weather page.

A reminder that while temperature and rain/snow can impact a game, the greatest impact by far comes from high-wind games, so I’ll be looking to highlight those spots when possible.

Sunday Main Slate

Chicago Bears @ Tampa Bay Bucs – Typical Florida afternoon storms. This kind of storm activity is tough to pinpoint until right before kickoff, but I’d say there’s a decent chance we see at least some rain during the game.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Jacksonville Jaguars – Like in Tampa we’ll see a few pop-up storms, and there’s a chance one of those ends up over the stadium during gametime.

Sunday Night Football

Miami Dolphins @ New England Patriots – The impacts from Lee should be well clear by Sunday night, I expect dry conditions and just a 5mph wind.

Monday Night Football

New Orleans Saints @ Carolina Panthers – Quiet weather for MNF.

Weather Impact on Fantasy & Betting

The thing to watch this week is the potential for heavy rain in Tampa and Jacksonville, but with winds remaining light, we just need to make sure it’s not a deluge during game time.

With no big wind games, I don’t see this as a major weather week, but we’ll keep our eyes on Tampa and the handful of other games with rain chances. I’ll be posting radar gifs to Twitter as we get closer to kickoff, @KevinRothWx on Twitter.
