...HIGH WIND WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM LATE THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...For the High Wind Warning, northwest winds 35 to 45 mph 
  with gusts of 55 to 65 mph expected. For the High Wind Watch, 
  northwest winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts near 55 mph possible.

* WHERE...Portions of north central Kansas and central, east

* WHEN...For the High Wind Warning, from 11 PM this evening to

  midnight Thursday night through Friday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Damaging winds could blow down trees and power 
  lines. Scattered power outages are possible. Travel will be 
  difficult, especially for high profile vehicles.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The initial surge of strong northwest winds
  will occur overnight. Peak gusts near 60 mph are likely with
  this relatively-brief surge, with locally higher gusts up to 70
  mph possible. After a relative lull in wind speeds Thursday
  morning, another round of strong winds will occur from mid
  morning through early evening, during which peak gusts will
  again top out near 60 mph. Although winds do not appear to be
  quite as strong late Thursday night into Friday, a High Wind
  Watch remains in effect during that time for a good possibility
  of northwesterly gusts 45 to 55 mph. Last but certainly not
  least, it is starting to look more likely that strong winds
  could combine with falling snow to reduce visibility in northern
  and eastern portions of the area late Thursday night into
  Friday. The main area of concern for possible blowing snow
  issues will focus northeast of a Loup City, to Hastings, to
  Superior Nebraska line.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

People should avoid being outside in forested areas and around
trees and branches. If possible, remain in the lower levels of
your home during the windstorm, and avoid windows. Use caution if
you must drive.

...HIGH WIND WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM CST THIS
EVENING...

* WHAT...Northwest winds sustained generally 30 to 40 MPH with 
  gusts as high as 55 to 65 MPH.

* WHERE...Portions of north central Kansas and central, east 
  central and south central Nebraska.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM CST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Damaging winds could blow down trees and power 
  lines. Scattered power outages are possible. Travel will be 
  difficult, especially for high profile vehicles.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The overall-strongest winds during the 
  remainder of the Warning are expected to occur between early 
  Friday morning and mid-afternoon. In addition, it is likely 
  that the strong winds will combine with light falling snow to 
  reduce visibility at times on Friday, especially in northern 
  and eastern portions of the area. The main area of concern for 
  possible blowing snow/visibility issues resides east of a line 
  from Ord, to Grand Island, to Hebron Nebraska.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

People should avoid being outside in forested areas and around
trees and branches. If possible, remain in the lower levels of
your home during the windstorm, and avoid windows. Use caution if
you must drive.
