Freeze Warning, Lake Wind Advisory
Statement as of 3:03 am EST on February 11, 2012

... Lake Wind Advisory in effect from 11 am this morning to 7 PM
EST this evening...
... Freeze warning in effect from 2 am to 9 am EST Sunday...

The National Weather Service in Jacksonville has issued a freeze
warning... which is in effect from 2 am to 9 am EST Sunday. A lake
Wind Advisory has also been issued. This lake Wind Advisory is in
effect from 11 am this morning to 7 PM EST this evening. The
freeze watch is no longer in effect.

* Timing... winds will increase this morning and become gusty.
Elevated wind speeds are expected to continue into the early
evening. Temperatures will fall tonight... with a period of
below freezing temperatures expected.

* Winds... northwest winds will increase and become gusty this
morning. Sustained speeds of 15 to 20 mph can be expected from
late morning into early evening... along with gusts to 35 mph.

* Temperature... low temperatures will be around 30 tonight. Northwest
winds will also produce lower wind chills readings tonight as
well.

* Impacts... boaters should exercise caution today... as should
drivers of high profile vehicles. Freezing temperatures will
kill sensitive vegetation that is not protected tonight.


Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A freeze warning means sub-freezing temperatures are imminent or
expected for at least 2 hours. Appropriate action should be
taken to ensure tender vegetation and outdoor pets have adequate
protection from the cold temperatures. Young children... the
elderly and the homeless are especially vulnerable to the cold.
Take measures to protect them.

A lake Wind Advisory is issued when sustained winds of 20 to
25 mph or gusts of 30 to 39 mph are expected. Small boats will be
especially prone to capsizing. Boaters in the advisory area
should avoid open water and stay close to shore in wind protected
inlets. High profile vehicles should use extra caution when
traveling as well.
