Cowboys vs Lions: Weather Outlook
Location: AT&T Stadium, Arlington, TX
Stadium Type: Retractable dome, turf
Predicted Forecast: High of 87, low of 68, mostly sunny and breezy, winds 14-15mph with gusts up to 39-40mph, 7% chance of rain
Staying a little toasty down in Arlington for this one. But, with the sun out it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the roof open. The same can’t be said for the end zones if it came down to a guess. Gusts of up to 40mph will wreak havoc on the passing game and even more so on the kicking game.
Although a rarer 12 pm CST kickoff for the Cowboys at home, this one should be a packed house and loud in the Cowboys’ favor. There should be a lot of third and long attempts by the Lions on offense and the crowd could play a big part here.
