MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, home of the New York Giants and Jets, is also home of Super Bowl XLVIII. There expecting this Super Bowl to be extremely cold, and having attended WrestleMania at MetLife Stadium last April, it wouldn’t surprise me.

Some have questioned why the NFL has put the Super Bowl in a cold-weather open-air stadium when it is traditionally in a dome or warmer climate. Nevertheless, the game will be there and Nike has revealed a line of jackets they’re offering for the sidelines at the Super Bowl.

Right now it is 32 degrees in New York as the polar vortex passes. The average temperature in that region on Super Bowl Sunday is a high of 37 degrees and a low of 22 degrees. The record high is 58 degrees.
