The National Weather Service has posted a Wind Advisory for southwest Oregon.
The Wind Advisory for Josephine, Jackson, eastern Curry and eastern Douglas counties runs from 10 a.m. today until 1 a.m. Tuesday.
Southwest winds from 20 to 30 miles per hour, with gusts up to 45 miles per hour are expected. Stronger wind gusts are possible within thunderstorms during the late morning and afternoon hours today.
Weather experts say gusty winds will blow around and damage unsecured objects. Tree damage is likely and power outages may occur as a result of downed limbs.
Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high-profile vehicles. Use extra caution during the advisory period. Secure light outdoor objects to prevent damage or loss.
