Minnesota Vikings vs. Houston Texans weather report
The temperature at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, where the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings play in the NFL on Sunday, is predicted to be 63.1 degrees. A partly cloudy sky with little probability of rain is also expected for the area.
Intermittent gusts out of the north will reach speeds of up to 10 mph throughout the game, according to Bookmakers Review.
However, it should be noted that the Week 3 game will take place in a domed stadium. Therefore, both teams' game plans and strategies will be unaffected by the weather.
If the Vikings vs. Texans game were to take place in a region with a lot of precipitation or extremely high temperatures—which is unlikely in this instance—the dome would still be the ideal solution.
