A wind advisory is in effect for St. Lawrence County today from noon to 10 p.m. as wind gusts of 50 miles per hour are possible, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).
Winds will increase this morning peaking during the later afternoon and early evening hours, before calming before midnight, the service says.
Strong winds may blow down limbs, trees and power lines, NWS says. Scattered power outages are expected.
A wind advisory means that winds of 35 mph or more are expected. Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.
The strong winds will be accompanied by a warm-up as highs near 80 are likely, forecasters say. Showers and thunderstorms are likely before 2 p.m., then cloudy skies which will gradually become sunny later this afternoon, NWS says.
