*Wind advisory until 1 a.m. *

       Well that was fun, wasn’t it? Snow totals around the region were rather impressive given that we are in mid-March and the temperature hit 80 degrees just a few days ago. The snow may be gone, but we are in store for a rather frigid night as cold air rushes in behind our departed storm system. Any wet or slushy areas will refreeze, so use caution driving and walking.

       Strong winds combined with very cold temperatures are set to drop wind chill values into the single digits at times overnight. You can take solace in the fact that today’s snowfall is likely that last time we will see the white stuff until next winter.

       Weather woes at the PGA Players Championship: The same frontal system and developing storm center that brought us snow has been wreking havoc at the PGA’s first big golf tournament of the year. The Players Championship is held annually in March at the TPC Sawgrass in northern Florida, and is typically accompanied by pristine weather conditions.

       Not this year. The first two days of the tournament were essentially rained out and, after a cold front passed through this morning and triggered some severe weather concerns, the wind came. It’s made for some entertaining golf shots at the courses famous island green on the 17th hole. Well, entertaining for us and not so much for the players.

       The news gets worse before it gets better. Much like in our region, temperatures will drop off rather sharply tonight even in Florida. Early morning tee times on Sunday will be facing temperatures below freezing and wind chill values in the low 20s.
