NFL Week 12 Weather Updates: Rain, wind, snow could affect fantasy start 'em, sit 'em decisions image

There's really only one worrisome spot in the Week 12 NFL weather forecast and that's in Pittsburgh on Tuesday night...because why wouldn't it be? Everything else has gone wrong with that game, so some potential snow is only fitting. But other than, we have a pretty peaceful late-November forecast, so say some belated thanks and worry about the myriad injuries and illnesses that will affect your fantasy start 'em, sit 'em decisions this week instead of wind, rain, and cold temperatures. 

Before we get into the Week 12 forecasts, here's a reminder that if you have any questions about sports weather or how weather could impact play (and, potentially, your fantasy, DFS, and gambling decisions), don't hesitate to reach out to Rotogrinders' meteorologist Kevin Roth on Twitter (@KevinRothWx) or check out the hourly NFL weather forecasts on RotoGrinders.

NFL Week 12 weather updates

Forecasts courtesy for Kevin Roth at RotoGrinders.

Chargers @ Bills. Winds could be between 10-15 mph, but it's likely not enough to make a real impact, especially with temperatures in the 50s.

Browns @ Jaguars. There's a chance for some light showers and 10-mph winds, but considering what Cleveland usually plays in, this is a walk in the park.

Bears @ Packers. Winds could be around 10 mph and temperatures will hover around freezing, but the Bears and Packers are used to playing in worse, so don't expect much impact on the players.

Seahawks @ Eagles. Here's another game with a chance for some showers with 10-mph winds. There's no need to sit any of your normal starters, but even the possibility of wet conditions is a bump up for Seattle's defense against Philadelphia's sloppy offense.

Ravens @ Steelers. Snow looks fairly likely for this one on Tuesday night, but we won't know how much until closer to kickoff.

WEEK 12 PPR RANKINGS:
