Wind Advisory
Statement as of 11:08 am EST on January 7, 2009

... Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight EST tonight...

A Wind Advisory remains in effect until midnight EST tonight.

During the afternoon... southwest winds will increase once again
to between 25 and 30 mph. There will be frequent gusts up to 40
or 45 mph. These strong winds coupled with the saturated soil
will likely topple a few trees and power poles... leading to some
power outages. Winds will only gradually diminish this evening.

A Wind Advisory means that winds of 35 mph are expected. Winds
this strong can make driving difficult... especially for high
profile vehicles. Use extra caution. Also... take care to secure
lightweight... outdoor objects that may be blown about by the wind.
