The final game of Week 8 between the New York Giants and Kansas City Chiefs will take place on Monday, November 1st from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. Plenty of fantasy football contributors will be in action, and bettors have one final game to make some extra cash before next week’s slate of games, so fans should get their research in including what the weather could be like.
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.
