NPWTBW) has been issued, forecast
grids have been updated, and ZFP will be issued shortly.

Although some colder temperatures have been added to these
areas above, and wind chills later tonight are now a couple
of degrees colder, Wind Chill Advisories were already in
effect and these areas, and the changes do not impact or
change this hazard.

In addition...Although Thursday night will not be quite as
cold as tonight...it will still be well below normal. The
area of potential freezing temperatures will shrink
considerably from what is in place tonight, but portions of
the Nature Coast will not escape one additional night of
freezing temps. Have gone ahead and issued a freeze watch
for Levy/Citrus/Sumter/Hernando/and inland Pasco county from
12AM Friday through 9 AM Friday.

Once this potential freeze is over...temperatures really
begin to moderate. Temperatures warm very quickly this
weekend...and a lot of the region is expected to see
temperatures back up into the upper 60s to middle 70s by
Sunday.
