How this is measured
Each game is matched to the closest airport weather station within 15 miles and read from the first snap to the last. Wind and rain are the airport's readings near the stadium, not on the field: a stadium can be sheltered or exposed in ways an airfield is not. A game with no airport that close is left out.
Game times come from the play-by-play, which records when a play was entered, so they are good to a minute or two. A stoppage is listed only when an airport reported thunder around it.
