WIND ADVISORY
Warning Issue Date: 114 PM CST THU DEC 24 2009
...WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM CST THIS EVENING...
A WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM CST THIS EVENING.
WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE AND BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY THIS
AFTERNOON AS A STRONG COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.
SUSTAINED WINDS OF 20 TO 30 MPH WITH FREQUENT GUSTS OF 35 TO 40
MPH ARE EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY EVENING. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WEST
AND DECREASE THIS EVENING AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH.
GIVEN THE ABUNDANT RAINS THAT HAVE OCCURRED RECENTLY...THE GROUND IS
VERY SATURATED. FREQUENT WIND GUSTS OF 40 MPH COULD RESULT IN THE
DOWNING OF SOME SHALLOW ROOTED TREES.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A WIND ADVISORY MEANS THAT SUSTAINED WINDS OR FREQUENT GUSTS OF
25 TO 39 MPH ARE EXPECTED. WINDS THIS STRONG CAN MAKE DRIVING
DIFFICULT FOR HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES...ESPECIALLY ON BRIDGES AND
ELEVATED ROADWAYS USE EXTRA CAUTION.
IN ADDITION...IT IS ALSO A GOOD IDEA TO SECURE LOOSE OUTDOOR
OBJECTS SUCH A TRASH CANS...LIGHT WEIGHT PATIO FURNITURE...AND
HOLIDAY DECORATIONS.
