This new feature is designed to help give bettors another edge when it comes to props, game spreads, and eventual trends. Knowing how much wind, precipitation, and temperature will affect the games can save gamblers grief and be very profitable. I will profile every week for the NFL games on Sunday. The MinnixMeter measures the effect of weather on a game from 1 to 5. The greater the number, the higher the effect on the game.
