PGA Tour News: Wind Warning Issued as 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Nears to Its Final

Is the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am going smoothly? Well, no! Pebble Beach is notorious for being the spot for bad weather conditions. The rain and hail on the golf course have delayed the event multiple times in the past. And it looks like the same is bound to happen this year!

Over the years, the final round of the event has always been struck by severe weather conditions. As per the forecasted weather report by NUCLR GOLF, a wind warning has been issued for Sunday’s final round of the season’s second signature event.

Meteorologist for NUCLR GOLF, Michael Anand, predicted a storm incoming. Anand predicted a “mix of sun and clouds, a shower possible here or there” on Saturday, but called it a calm before the storm for Sunday! For the final round of the 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Anand predicted, “Rainfall to the amount of 1-2 inches possible during the day on Sunday.”

“We are also expecting really strong winds! Winds are going to be sustained at 30–40 miles per hour, with gusts of up to 70 miles per hour possible. For that, a high wind warning has been issued for Pebble Beach during the day tomorrow,” said Anand. But this is not the first time this has happened, and the PGA Tour is prepared for the worst.
