With the kickoff scheduled for 7:15 p.m., you can expect temperatures around the upper 60s. It’s an ideal setup for the game, and as the night progresses, the temperature is expected to dip into the low 60s by the final whistle. The light winds mean it won’t be too breezy, but don’t forget to bring along a jacket to keep cozy while you cheer on the Chiefs!

What to Expect This Week

After a lovely evening under the stadium lights, get ready for a warming trend beginning on Tuesday. The forecast suggests a jump to temperatures in the mid-70s. And if you’re planning outdoor activities later in the week, you’ll be pleased to know we can expect even warmer weather. Highs are projected to reach the low to upper 80s from Wednesday through Friday, with meteorologists noting that Friday is likely to be the hottest day of the week!

What’s really exciting is that across the region, many areas will see temperatures soaring between 10 to 15 degrees above the average for October. Perfect for enjoyable strolls, backyard barbecues, or any outdoor plans you might have.
