Minnesota Vikings vs San Francisco 49ers weather forecast: Will rain affect the NFL game at U.S. Bank Stadium?

As the Minnesota Vikings face the San Francisco 49ers in the Week 7 finale, fans wonder if the weather, including rain, will impact the game at U.S. Bank Stadium.

The Week 7 finale between the Minnesota Vikings and the San Francisco 49ers is generating excitement not only for the on-field action, but also for the looming weather conditions at U.S. Bank Stadium. With key players out due to injuries, all eyes are on the skies and whether they will play a part in this Monday Night Football matchup.

Minnesota is mourning the loss of star receiver Justin Jefferson, who is out with an injury.

These big absences have influenced NFL odds, resulting in a narrower spread for the game.
