To wrap up Week 17 in the NFL, the Cleveland Browns are heading to the Steel City to play the Pittsburgh Steelers in a significant MNF matchup at 8:15 p.m. ET.
Weather needs to be extreme to truly impact games, but when deciding between two players who you like equally, it might be a helpful tie breaker. What we really don’t want to see is 20 mph or higher wind speeds. Rain can cause problems, but unless it is a combination of high winds and rain, we usually don’t want to downgrade our fantasy football players too much.
Helpful weather resources include National Weather Service and Dark Sky, among others.
