...Strong Winds into Early Afternoon...
Gusty winds are expected late this morning into the early
afternoon as an area of rain and embedded thunderstorms continues
to shift eastward through portions of eastern Iowa and northwest
Illinois. Winds will increase on the western edge of the shield of
precipitation with gusts between 40 to 50 mph possible out of an
east to southeasterly direction. Use extra caution if traveling,
especially in high profile vehicles. The gusty winds could blow
around loose objects and bring down small tree branches.
