...Strong Wind Gusts Expected Late Tonight and Sunday...
An autumn storm system and cold front will bring two rounds of
strong, gusty winds to eastern Kentucky. The first round will
occur late tonight and Sunday morning with the strongest wind
gusts occurring over Coalfield ridgetops, across open countryside
near and west of I-75, and also over the Eastern Bluegrass. South
to southwest wind gusts of 25 to 35 mph can be expected over most
of eastern Kentucky late tonight and Sunday morning, but in the
aforementioned areas, a few gusts exceeding 40 mph cannot be
ruled out. There should be a brief lull behind the first round of
winds late Sunday morning into early afternoon, after which winds
will switch to westerly and gust again to between 25 and 35 mph
area-wide through the remainder of the afternoon.
Winds of this magnitude could blow around loose or poorly secured
objects, including holiday decor and festival tents. Most of the
foliage remains on trees, thus a few branches or weakly rooted
trees could also be blown down, potentially leading to isolated
power outages. Additionally, wet leaves falling onto area roadways
could lead to slick travel conditions.
