Levi’s Stadium field emerged in firm condition once the tarp came off three hours before the 49ers’ playoff opener against the Seahawks.
SANTA CLARA — Steady rain overnight and into Saturday morning did not wreak havoc on the Levi’s Stadium field, at least not at first glance as the 49ers warmed up with the Seattle Seahawks before their NFL playoff opener.
About three hours before kickoff, the grounds crew took off a tarp that only went onto the field Thursday evening, after the end zones were painted red to mirror not only the 49ers’ Candlestick Park days but also their 2020 playoff games at 9-year-old Levi’s Stadium.Sporadic showers are forecast to return for the game, more likely toward the fourth quarter.
The National Weather Service expects temperatures in the high 50s, with south-southeast wind 9 to 14 mph, with potential gusts of 28 mph.
