...Gusty Winds Expected Today and Tonight with the Remnants of
Hurricane Isaias...

A period of strong wind gusts is expected today as the remnants
of Hurricane Isaias move into eastern Kentucky. Southeasterly
winds of 10 to 20 mph, with gusts up to 35 mph are expected. The
strongest winds are expected during the afternoon and should
coincide with the arrival of the leading bands of rain. Once

expected to continue into the night. Isolated gusts over 40 mph
are possible over the highest ridge tops. The gusty winds could
blow around unsecured outdoor objects and decor.
