The 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship Game will be played at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. The stadium, which is home to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is an outdoor stadium played on real grass.

Given that this is an outdoor stadium, weather could potentially be a factor here. Fortunately for this game, the weather is expected to be perfect for the Monday night matchup between No. 1 Alabama and No. 3 Clemson.

The anticipated forecast for Monday according to The Weather Channel is a high of 67 degrees, with a low of 50, and a zero percent chance of rain. The forecast for Monday evening is mostly clear skies, with winds blowing northeast at 5-10 miles per hour.

Given that this is an outdoor stadium in the state of Florida, weather could have been a slight concern with this game. But the great news is, we couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather for the College Football Playoff National Championship.
