Check the forecast

They’ll play the Final Four indoors, of course, but that doesn’t stop North Carolina coach Roy Williams from checking on the climate.
Coaches were disappointed to learn earlier this week that the forecast for San Antonio at the end of the week calls for perhaps quite a bit of rain.
Williams often makes his personal pecking order for NCAA Tournament destinations based on the projected climate. So ordinarily that would give high grades to San Antonio. But Williams would be pleased to take his team to the Final Four if the games were contested in Alaska if that’s what it took.
Anyway, courtesy of Williams’ weather report from earlier in the week, Tar Heels fans en route to the Final Four might might want to consider the possibility for some clouds blowing through. As long as black clouds don’t hover over their team, they’ll probably be fine with whatever they encounter.
