The National Weather Service says winds will increase this morning with gusts of 35 to 45 mph becoming common from mid-morning through much of this afternoon.

Forecasters say winds this strong may blow around loose or lightweight objects.

In addition, small tree limbs could be blown down and pose a hazard to those outside later today and early this evening, and the windy conditions could cause driving difficulties for high profile vehicles.
