Colts vs. Raiders: Week 4 weather update

The Colts play the Raiders tomorrow, and they might actually be able to have the window and roof open in Lucas Oil Stadium.

Weather is normally not a factor for games played in Indianapolis. They normally leave the window and roof closed in Lucas Oil Stadium no matter what the weather is. But that could change tomorrow because of how nice it is supposed to be outside.

It will be a hot 87 degrees tomorrow in Indy with a 20% chance of rain. If the rain does steer clear, the Colts should open the roof and the window. This would be the first game this year in which they would play with either open at Lucas Oil Stadium.

I do hope that they leave it open. It would be nice to see them play an open air game while the weather is still nice. It’ll be a little hot, but that shouldn’t be an issue. The team should be well hydrated before the matchup so they won’t cramp up or anything.

There won’t really be any wind tomorrow either. It’s only about 5-10 mph. That would make Adam Vinatieri happy. That’s probably a big reason why they didn’t open anything up last weekend. They wanted Vinny to be as comfortable as possible after struggling the previous two weeks.

The fans would enjoy it if they opened up the stadium tomorrow. It would make it a nicer gameday experience. It also wouldn’t affect the way the game is played very much either. It’s a win-win for everyone.
