Home of the Jolly Roger and a big upgrade from Three Rivers Stadium, PNC Park isn't prone to extreme weather. There are your overly windy days but, mostly, it's a non-factor when averaged over a full season. Of note, the outfield dimensions are a big part of its uniqueness. Left field has relatively lower walls (6') but the fences are significantly deeper (home runs perish quickly). Center is relatively average. Right field features its huge 21' fence but is slightly closer to home, especially down the line. Toss it all into a statistical mixing bowl and you get a park that yields an above-average number of runs per game.
Last thing to note is that the park is at a relatively high altitude (743 feet). That generally helps with carry, especially after the all-star break.

Below are the average temperature, humidity, rain, wind and wind direction for each month of the season (Pirates home games only). All the data is for the 2024 campaign and will be updated as the season progresses.
Keep these trends in mind before setting your lineup (particularly important for weekly lock fantasy leagues where it's difficult to predict the weather in a few days).
