Super Bowl 2024 weather: Why forecast for Chiefs-49ers matchup in Las Vegas doesn't matter
View Date:2024-12-23 21:35:50
Whether the weather is nice or not may not be a factor for Super Bowl Sunday.
No need to fire up the Doppler 3000, and you may delete the weather app off your phone, because seldom does the weather play a factor in Super Bowl matchups. Traditionally, the Super Bowl has been played either indoors or in warm-weather cities, and that remains the case for Super Bowl 58.
Allegiant Stadium, which is the home of the Las Vegas Raiders, hosts the Kansas City Chiefs-San Francisco 49ers matchup Sunday. The entirely indoor stadium opened in 2020 and is hosting its first Super Bowl.
Through Super Bowl history, more games have been played outdoors than in domes, though that hasn't been the case in recent years. Dating back to 2010, the game has been played indoors nine times, with Sunday's matchup making it 10, as opposed to four games that have been held outdoors.
Still, if you're traveling to Sin City to take in some slots and football, the weather may interest you a bit. Here's what to know about Sunday's forecast for Super Bowl 58.

What is the weather for Super Bowl 58?
The current forecast for Las Vegas on Sunday calls for clear skies, and temperatures ranging from a high of 51 degrees and a low of 33 degrees.
That weather, though, won't play a factor in Sunday's matchup: Allegiant Stadium is indoors, so fans won't have to worry about Mother Nature playing a role in the outcome of the game.
Though both teams play their home games in outdoor stadiums, a fast track on an indoor field should benefit both offenses greatly. The Chiefs, though, may have a bit more comfort, as they travel to the Raiders' home turf to take on their division rival once a year.
Chiefs record at Allegiant Stadium
Since the building opened in 2020, the Chiefs are perfect in Vegas: They've defeated the Raiders in all four games they've played in the stadium, which could provide some good juju heading into their showdown with the 49ers.
49ers record at Allegiant Stadium
The Niners have made one visit to Sin City since the Raiders relocated: On Jan. 1, 2023, San Francisco took a 37-34 win over their former Bay Area roommates, their sole win in Allegiant Stadium.
