STORM ALERT...
NWS has issued a High Wind warning for southern Indiana and north central Kentucky from 7am-10pm Wednesday...SPC outlines our area in a 30% chance of severe weather Wednesday.
Here's how I think it will play out...
- 7am: 20-30mph winds with gusts to 45mph, cloudy
- 10am: 25-35mph winds with gusts to 50mph, mostly cloudy
- 12pm: 30-40 mph winds with gusts to 60mph, partly sunny
- 2pm: Squall line of severe thunderstorms; damaging winds >60mph, approaching 70mph.
- 4pm: 30-40 mph winds with gusts to 55mph, partly cloudy
- 10pm: 20-30 mph winds with gust to 40mph, cloudy
Winds will increase throughout the morning and early afternoon hours. With the recent wind storm, ice storm, and saturated grounds, expect tree limbs that are broken to fall, along with some trees. Some areas will again see power outages.
The line of severe storms coming in around 2pm is a tricky one to forecast. The rains should stop during the morning, but the question is whether the sun will come out or not. I think it will peek out, but not for long. If it does clear during the morning, expect damaging winds to 80mph and scattered tornadoes. The could be a devastating situation for our already weather-beaten area if the sun does come out tomorrow.
Will post tomorrow morning, as I am in storm alert mode...
