Yeah one month + of bad winter weather is nothing compared to what I get up here in the snow belt in Michigan...but my point was that there are plenty of days where the Bengals should be using a facility. Basically 1 out of every 3 days is sub 20 degrees, with some form of precipitation every other day on average during the winter.
I'm not saying it's the worst winter on the planet, I'm just saying it's not San Diego. There's plenty of justification for a facility.

We average 44 in December and 40 in January.

Average snowfall is 14 inches...all during the football season.

Although this article from WCPO says there is typically 16 inches of snow in January, February and March alone.

Now you're not relying on my weather analysis. This isn't even getting into all the days of rain they get. Considering all of the above, there are plenty of reasons to have a facility, and plenty of teams in far better climates have one.
