The NFL enters Week 4 with several outdoor games facing potentially difficult weather conditions on Sunday.
Rain is expected around multiple stadiums, while thunderstorms could affect games in Houston and Tampa Bay. The Rams-Eagles matchup in Philadelphia is also facing a meaningful rain threat, while Baltimore could deal with persistent showers throughout the Titans-Ravens game, according to Kevin Roth of MySportsWeather.com.
Not every matchup has weather concerns. Several games are expected to feature clear or mostly sunny skies, while the Dolphins-Vikings and Chiefs-Raiders games will be played indoors.

Biggest Weather Concerns for Week 4
Titans-Ravens: Baltimore has one of the clearest weather concerns on the slate. Temperatures should remain around 64 degrees with rain showers likely throughout the game. The light wind means precipitation, rather than wind, should be the biggest factor.
Rams-Eagles: Philadelphia could see rain throughout the matchup, with the chance of precipitation increasing after kickoff. Temperatures should stay around 66 degrees, while winds remain light.
Cowboys-Texans: Houston has a 60-70% chance of showers and thunderstorms around game time. However, the retractable roof at NRG Stadium is expected to be closed, meaning the weather should not directly affect the playing surface.
Packers-Buccaneers: Tampa Bay could be the most challenging environment from a heat perspective. Temperatures are expected to reach 88 degrees, with high humidity pushing the heat index toward 100 degrees. Scattered thunderstorms are also possible, creating a potential delay threat.
Lions-Panthers: Rain is expected around Charlotte, with the forecast calling for showers during Sunday Night Football. Winds should remain light, limiting the impact on passing and kicking.
The rest of the Sunday slate is generally favorable, with clear conditions expected in Chicago, Cincinnati, Seattle and Santa Clara. The two indoor games, Dolphins-Vikings and Chiefs-Raiders, have no weather impact.
