The irony here is that it is quite possible that the Ravens game in New England, further north and a week deeper into January than last weekend's home playoff game in Baltimore, may actually turn out warmer.

Now, notice I did *not* say  "a lot" warmer.

None the less, it does appear we could see temps by the 3pm kickoff in Massachusetts in the mid 30s.  That would compare to a high temp of only about 30F in Baltimore last Sunday.

The overall forecast also looks to be a dry one on Sunday, with partly cloudy skies on tap.   However, fans may be wading through 3-6 inches of fresh snow that could fall in Foxboro on Saturday!

And what about the wind you ask?  A steady north wind at 10-15 mph certainly worked to chill things down more at M&T Bank stadium last weekend.  However, as of late this Tuesday night, we expect the winds at Foxborough cold and from the north again, however, it may be a bit lighter, perhaps just a 5-10 mph breeze.

Of course, forecasts can change quickly in this part of January, especially in New England - so stay tuned!
