NFL Weather Today: Temperatures & Forecast for Each Game


  • The NFL weather report below covers every game on the schedule, with temperature, wind, and precipitation updated through kickoff
  • Wind moves betting totals more than any other weather factor, and 15 mph is the first marker that hurts the passing game
  • NFL weather is a live betting variable in 20 of 30 stadiums, since the other 10 have a fixed or retractable roof

This page tracks the weather report for every NFL game on the schedule each week. The graphic below sets out the forecast for each matchup, and underneath it you’ll find a full breakdown of which conditions move a line, which stadiums to watch, and how the elements shape a total.

Wind, cold, rain, and snow all hit the passing and kicking game in different ways. Knowing where the real thresholds sit is what counts, since most games are barely affected and a handful move the total by a touchdown.

NFL Weather Report

The NFL weather report above covers every game on the slate. It shows temperature, wind, and sky for each stadium. Games that cross a threshold get a tag, so WINDY or EXTREME COLD tells you where to look.

Each game also breaks down the quarterback angles, with built-in prop lines. That tells you if a number is soft before you take it, and which way the weather pushes a total.

Check the weather report again closer to kickoff. Five- to seven-day forecasts are shaky. They tighten up by Friday and Saturday, and the tags move with them.

Why Weather Matters for NFL Betting

Weather hits NFL betting hardest through the total. Bad conditions drag down passing and kicking, and that pushes the over/under lower as books adjust to the forecast.

The edge tends to live early in the week. Books set lines when the forecast is still loose, so sharp bettors who catch a windy or snowy game before the number moves can find value before it closes by the weekend.

Weather can tilt the moneyline and spread too. Sloppy conditions level the field, help a run-first underdog, and take some of the air out of a pass-heavy favorite.

Weather Thresholds That Count

Most weather doesn’t move the needle. Here’s where each condition starts to bite, so you know when to factor it into a bet.

ConditionThresholdBetting Impact
Wind15 mph first marker, 20+ mph sharpStrong under lean, hurts passing and kicking
ColdBelow 25°FMinor under, passing dips
RainAny steady rainSmall under, books adjust fast
SnowHeavy snow onlyBig under, kicking suffers

Wind is the one to respect most. Once it crosses 20 mph, the passing game falls off a cliff and field goal accuracy drops well below normal even on shorter attempts.

Cold is overrated as a pure under play. Games in the 25 to 55 degree range have leaned slightly toward the over, so don’t bet down a total just because the forecast looks frigid.

Rain rarely creates a real edge because books price it in quickly. Snow is different, and heavy snow is one of the few conditions that reliably crushes a total.

Dome vs. Outdoor Stadiums

Weather is only in play where the game is exposed to it. Of the league’s 30 stadiums, 10 have a fixed or retractable roof, which leaves 20 open-air venues where the forecast comes into the equation.

Dome games average more points than outdoor ones, which is a useful baseline if you’re new to handicapping weather. These are the outdoor stadiums bettors track for cold and wind.

StadiumTeamAvg TempThe Angle
Lambeau FieldPackers44.7°FColdest active outdoor venue
Highmark StadiumBills49.7°FLake-effect snow, unpredictable
Soldier FieldBears49.7°FCold and wind off the lake
Gillette StadiumPatriots49.6°FKnown for swirling wind
Empower FieldBroncos56.4°FCold plus altitude effects
MetLife StadiumGiants / Jets55.4°FWind funnels off the Meadowlands

Lambeau and the lake-effect cities are your prime cold-weather spots from October through January. The list is also shrinking, with the Browns, Bears, Titans, and Commanders all moving toward domed homes in the coming years.

How Weather Moves the Line

Books open totals early in the week before the forecast firms up. When a strong wind reading comes in, the number usually drops as the week goes on, and windy games show the clearest link between forecast updates and a falling total.

The famous example is a Browns-Steelers game where a heavy snow forecast knocked the total from 43.5 down to 36.5 by kickoff, a full touchdown. That’s the kind of move you want to be ahead of, not chasing.

The window to act is usually Thursday into Saturday. Lines often haven’t fully caught up to an updated forecast by Friday morning, and that’s where the value sits.

How Weather Affects QB Props

Wind and cold hit passing props harder than rushing props. A quarterback loses accuracy on deep throws and timing routes, but nothing about a designed run changes when the wind picks up.

That split is why a mobile quarterback can be a fade on his passing line and a play on his rushing line in the same game. Josh Allen is the clearest example, with a career mark of 8-3 in games at 15-plus mph wind.

Pocket passers who lean on precision take the bigger hit. Brock Purdy’s game runs on timing, so a windy road trip puts real pressure on his passing number.

NFL Weather FAQ

What wind speed affects NFL totals?

Fifteen mph is the first real marker, and that’s when passing accuracy starts to slip. Once wind hits 20 mph or more, the effect gets sharp, with passing efficiency and field goal accuracy both dropping off, which makes the under more appealing.

Are cold-weather NFL games overs or unders?

Not the way most people assume. Games between 25 and 55 degrees have leaned slightly toward the over historically, and cold only becomes a real drag below 25 degrees. Don’t bet a total down just because it looks chilly.

Do NFL games get cancelled for weather?

Almost never. NFL games play through rain, snow, and cold, and the main reason to stop is lightning in the area. Full cancellations are rare and usually tied to hurricanes, not standard winter weather.

Which NFL cities have the worst weather?

Buffalo leads the league in seasonal snowfall thanks to lake-effect storms, while Green Bay’s Lambeau Field is the coldest active outdoor venue at about a 45 degree average. Chicago, New England, and Denver round out the spots bettors watch most.

How accurate are NFL weather forecasts?

Forecasts five to seven days out are unreliable, but they tighten up by Friday and Saturday. The widget on this page updates as game day approaches, so check it again closer to kickoff before placing a weather-dependent bet.
