Houston Texans vs. Kansas City Chiefs weather report: Latest on Arrowhead Stadium conditions for Week 16 game

The Houston Texans will face the Kansas City Chiefs at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday, continuing the Week 16 schedule. Even though the Chiefs continue to lead the AFC rankings heading into this game, the Texans want to deal them their second loss of the season and establish themselves as legitimate contenders.

Their 20-12 victory over the Miami Dolphins last Sunday guaranteed them a spot in the playoffs. Despite having a postseason berth guaranteed, Houston wants to finish the season strong and improve its playoff seeding.

Let's take a look at Saturday's weather report at Arrowhead Stadium for the afternoon kickoff.

Weather forecast for Chiefs vs. Texans on Saturday

The weather in Kansas City is reportedly expected to be chilly but the temperature is not predicted to drop below freezing.

The National Weather Service predicts the temperature to be in the mid-30s at kickoff, with a 5 mph southerly wind. However, it is anticipated that the temperature will have little effect on the game since there is a less than 10% possibility of precipitation.

In contrast to games played at stadiums with retractable roofs or warmer regions, NFL games with temps in the mid-30s have historically seen a slighy decrease in player performance. However, Saturday's weather should not impact either team's passing or kicking game.

How to watch Kansas City Chiefs vs. Houston Texans on Sunday

Ahead of their Week 16 matchup, the Houston Texans and the Kansas City Chiefs have already secured their postseason berths. However, their playoff seedings have yet to be determined, so this game will impact it.

Saturday's game against the Chiefs, who have already won the AFC West and have the best record in the NFL, will be a difficult one for C.J. Stroud and his teammates but Patrick Mahomes is dealing with ankle injury, which might play a big role.

Here is all the information you need to watch the AFC clash between the Texans and the Chiefs.
