The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for our area Monday night through Tuesday evening when wind gusts may go as high as 45 mph. That is strong enough to toss around loose objects, so bring those indoors or secure things you plan to leave outside.
Below is the text issued by NWS Louisville with the Advisory:
...WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 8 PM EDT /7 PM CDT/ MONDAY TO 6 PM EDT /5 PM CDT/ TUESDAY... * WHAT...South winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph expected. * WHERE...Portions of southern Indiana and central Kentucky. * WHEN...From 8 PM EDT /7 PM CDT/ Monday to 6 PM EDT /5 PM CDT/ Tuesday. * IMPACTS...Gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects.
