MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – Remember how it was supposed to be REALLY cold when the Seattle Seahawks play at the Minnesota Vikings next Sunday? Like, 12 degrees Fahrenheit?

That’s nothing compared to the latest forecasts.

Five-day forecasts released Tuesday morning are now predicting high temperatures ranging from -1 to 1 Fahrenheit, with some calling for lows in the neighborhood of -14.

 

 

A couple of days ago, the predicted high was 12 degrees.

Now the predicted high is sitting around 0 degrees.

Its a helluva thing playing a full, physical game outdoors in weather like that, then (possibly) having to travel coast to coast a week later.  I've never lived in those kind of colder climbs, but it HAS to take more of a physical toll out of you because you add the effort of just staying warm to the effort of the exercise.

Seahawks are 1-1 on the road with Russell Wilson at QB.  They've always had the friendly confines of Seattle for their Superbowl runs.

But what's the wind chill? A bunch of us were in Minnesota last year when the wind chill brought the game to -7 degrees

I work outside a lot. I've had trouble counting to 20 when it's been -10. And that's been outside for 30+ minutes and doing physical work

Teddy trying to throw beyond the sticks, potentially down a score or two, in that kind of environment?  That Vikings D better come through with some scores

wind chill in the giants-packers playoff game a number of years back was like -35 or something absolutely unforgivable

Supposed to be around -20 or so

Minnesota can win if they get Russell off. 

[Kuhndog94]

Wait.   If the Hawks win, will the game time for our game change? Its at1 now, but itll be like 10 for those on the WC

Its also suppose to be a 10-15 mph wind.  Not a tornado exactly, but strong enough to make it a little more difficult.

Meh, that won't be enough if AD has less than 20 yards rushing and if Bridgewater is too scared to throw for anything longer than 5 yards.

Fortunately, the Vikings will be running AP instead of AD. AP will likely exceed 20 yards.

Some of your are acting like Seattle is LA. It's basically Canada. I'm from London and could tell you guys that it gets damn cold in Seattle this time of year too.

RW will get God to warm up the stadium. Either that or his Jesus water will keep him warm.

It limits both teams throwing which in good conditions is a huge advantage to Seahawks.  In a ground and pound game, is Lynch ready for a physical game without two months practice or gametime?  AD was pretty pissed after last game.  He might be a little motivated.
