The National Weather Service has issued the advisory with west winds 20 to 25 miles per hour with gusts up to 40.

Blustery winds could blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. Those same winds will make it feel much colder with wind chills below zero expected overnight into Thursday morning.

Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles on north-south roadways.

A mix of rain and snow is also likely. Blowing snow could reduce visibility. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Total nighttime snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.
