How weather plays at Nationals Park
Nationals Park is open-air, so wind, temperature, humidity and rain are all live factors every game. Nationals Park is essentially at sea level (35 ft), so air density is a minor factor and wind and temperature drive the weather read. Home plate faces north-northeast toward center field (bearing 28°), so a wind out of the south-southwest blows straight out to center at Nationals Park, and the reverse knocks fly balls down. The fences run 336′ down the left line, 402′ to center and 335′ to right — the short right field corner (335′) is where a helping wind turns warning-track contact into damage. Park notes: Capitol dome visible beyond LF; Anacostia River beyond outfield; Presidents Race.
