Updated Gametime Weather

The weather forecast has slightly improved for tonight's game, with initial predictions of near zero degree temperatures, wind and snow.

The latest weather update is temperatures in the mid-teens, dropping to the low teens in the second half of the game. The winds are not expected to be a significant factor and snow fall is possible but is expected to be light with minimal snow accumulation during the game.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen has proven to be a cold weather player with an excellent record in wintry conditions. One of the the best games of Allen's career was in a frigid seven degree AFC wild-card game against the New England Patriots in January 2022, when Allen played lights out. The wind chill made it feel like minus-4 Fahrenheit. In a near perfect outing, Allen went 21 of 25 with 308 yards and five touchdowns.
