New England will host the New York Jets in what might be Bill Belichick’s final game with the Patriots. There also will be major NFL draft ramifications in play, with New England potentially landing anywhere from Nos. 2-5 in the draft order.

And, perhaps fittingly, a blanket of snow could lay atop all of it.

Multiple local meteorologists currently forecast a chance of snow during Sunday’s game at Gillette Stadium. It’s a near certainty the storm, which will move into the area Saturday night, will produce some precipitation, but it’s too early to tell whether Patriot fans will be treated to snow, rain or something in between.

For what it’s worth, the National Weather Service currently forecasts a chance of snow throughout Patriots-Jets. Projected accumulation wasn’t available at the time of this writing.

One way or another, it looks like weather will play a role in New England’s season finale.
