Updated Weather Forecast for Super Bowl 60 After Earthquake Hits Before Seahawks-Patriots Media Day
Weather is rarely a storyline for the Super Bowl like it is for January NFL playoff games in cold-weather cities, but natural phenomena was under the spotlight Monday.
ABC 7 News reported a 4.2 earthquake struck near San Ramon, California, on Monday at 7:01 a.m. local time. It occurred after a previous "string of quakes that began with a 3.8 at 6:27 a.m." with "dozens" following.
It was all the more notable because much of the focus of the NFL world is on nearby Santa Clara, California, where Sunday's Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks will take place.

What's more, the earthquake struck ahead of Monday's media day, and ESPN's Jeff Darlington noted it could be felt in the area:
At least it didn't happen during the game, which could take place during ideal conditions.
The National Weather Service report as of 3:59 a.m. PT on Sunday forecasts a temperature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit at kickoff, with winds up to nine miles per hour. Temps will drop just under 60 below by the end of the contest.
Barring a change, weather should almost be a non-factor in this game, with both teams playing in comfortable conditions.
No precipitation would certainly be welcome for both teams, especially New England. The Patriots had to endure a snow storm in the second half of the AFC Championship Game against the Denver Broncos.
Sunday's Super Bowl is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 p.m. ET. at Levi's Stadium, which is the home of the San Francisco 49ers.
