NFL Week 17 Weather Conditions (Fantasy Football)
Hopefully you’re here double checking the weather for your DFS lineups and not playing in a Week 17 fantasy championship as so so SO many fantasy stud players will be out this week. The weather doesn’t look too bad anywhere this week, but it looks like there will be some frigid and wet games.
This article will be updated leading up to the games and here on Sunday morning with a final update around 12:30 pm ET.
Sunday, January 3rd, 2021:
Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills
1:00 PM ET
BILLS STADIUM
ORCHARD PARK, NEW YORK
Temp: 34°
Precipitation: Flurries
Wind: 5 mph
Wind Gusts: 18 mph
Fantasy Impact: We might see some combination of flurries, sleet, or rain. The worst of it should pass right before kickoff, but this is Buffalo (Orchard Park) in January so anything can happen. (Update: This is directly from a forecast – Snow and sleet before 2pm, then a chance of rain between 2pm and 4pm, then a chance of rain and snow after 4pm. High near 36. It’ll be chilly in Buffalo in January.)
Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns
1:00 PM ET
FIRSTENERGY STADIUM
CLEVELAND, OHIO
Temp: 36°
Precipitation: Flurry/Drizzle Mix
Wind: 6 mph
Wind Gusts: 12 mph
Fantasy Impact: None
Dallas Cowboys at New York Giants
1:00 PM ET
METLIFE STADIUM
EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY
Temp: 39°
Precipitation: Rain
Wind: 8 mph
Wind Gusts: 13 mph
Fantasy Impact: Forecasts are all over the place for this game. They all call for some precipitation, but the major difference is temperature. Some are calling for temperatures in the low 30s, which would mean snow. Some are closer to the high 30s to 40s, which would mean rain. I’m thinking the temperatures will be on the higher end resulting in rain and no fantasy impact, but I’ll be watching this closely up until gametime. (Update: We might see a few flurries, but it will be mostly rain. Expect it to start picking up towards the end of the game. It will still be light so no fantasy impact.)
