The National Weather Service in Louisville has issued a Wind Advisory, which is in effect from 8 PM EDT /7 PM CDT/ this evening to 8 AM EDT /7 AM CDT/ Friday.

Strong sustained winds between 20 and 30 mph with most gusts between 35 and 45 mph.

Tree limbs and branches may fall and some weakened trees may be uprooted, leading to possible power outages. Driving may be difficult for high profile vehicles on east-west roads.

A Wind Advisory means that wind gusts of over 40 mph are expected. Winds this strong can make driving difficult…especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.
