Special Weather Statement
Issued: 8:41 AM Dec. 10, 2025 – National Weather Service
...Gusty Winds Today...

A large and potent early winter storm system will be moving
through the northern Ohio Valley today. As it passes by to our
north, it will bring strong and gusty south to southwest winds to
eastern Kentucky with the direction becoming more westerly during
the afternoon following the passage of a cold front. With this,
wind gusts of 30 to 35 mph are expected with locally higher gusts
possible. This is enough to blow around lawn displays, garbage
cans, and make for difficult driving of higher profile vehicles.
