Bundle up: Chilly weather for championship games - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Temperatures in the teens, wind chills near zero, maybe even a snow shower. Now that’s a real Winter Classic.

Frosty forecasts were in play Sunday for the AFC and NFC championship games, with players and fans ready to bundle up in Chicago and Pittsburgh.

Could be around 13 degrees at kickoff when the New York Jets take on the Steelers at Heinz Field. Might drop to about 8 under partly skies by the time they finish well after dark.

“It’s shaping up as one of the coldest games here that I can remember,” meteorologist Brad Rehak of the National Weather Service in Pittsburgh said Friday. “Going back to the 1970s with the Raiders-Steelers games.”

Rehak would know—he’s a longtime Steelers season ticket-holder who plans to be in the stands.

Wind chills, he said, would be about zero all game.
