Chiefs vs. Chargers weather updates: Cloudy skies, no chance of rain for 'SNF'
The weather outside is far from frightful. In fact, the fire won't even be delightful.
After a couple weeks of snow games, the heat is, fittingly, being turned up in Kansas City when the Chiefs host the Chargers on "Sunday Night Football," in Week 14. The Chiefs have struggled recently, while the Chargers are continuing to make their push for the playoffs in Jim Harbaugh's first season. As the AFC West foes renew their rivalry, it will be all business on the field, with no attention being given to the forecast.
Meteorologists are already getting a reprieve with five of the NFL's 13 games being played in a dome. Seven of the remaining eight games have no threat of rain, according to RotoGrinders chief meteorologist, Kevin Roth.
It appears Mother Nature was too busy to impact the NFL's Week 14 slate, giving fans at Arrowhead Stadium an early gift during the giving season. Here's a look at the forecast for Sunday night.
