Browns vs. Buccaneers weather forecast calls for hot temps, possible thunderstorm
Could weather play a factor in the Browns vs. Bucs game?
On December 9, 2018, the Cleveland Browns were set to face off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game that was influenced by the extreme summer heat and humidity. The Weather Channel forecasted temperatures to soar to 88 degrees, with a perceived temperature of 95 degrees. While wind was not expected to be a significant factor, there was a possibility of scattered thunderstorms around 4:00 pm ET.
Last week's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars only provided a glimpse of the challenging conditions the Browns would face. With the game concluding in around 3:45 pm ET, the impact of the thunderstorms was not a major concern, but it remains a remote possibility if the game turned into a close contest in the final moments. Accuweather had a slightly different prediction, with a higher chance of thunderstorms around 5:00 pm ET.
As the game day approached, the forecast and the potential for inclement weather were closely monitored.
