National Weather Service Issues Wind Advisory for Lane County?
2/7/2023 (Permalink)
Last month, the National Weather Service issued wind advisories in Oregon. Strong winds are known to send tree limbs and loose objects, like patio furniture, flying, causing damage to anything in their path.
Our South Eugene and Florence teams respond to storm damage emergencies every winter in Florence. Here are the definitions of wind alerts from the National Weather Service:
High Wind Warning: Take Action! Sustained, strong winds with even stronger gusts are happening. Seek shelter. If you are driving, keep both hands on the wheel.
High Wind Watch: Be Prepared! Sustained, strong winds are possible. Secure loose items and adjust plans as necessary so you’re not caught outside.
Wind Advisory: Take Action: Strong winds are occurring but are not so strong to warrant a High Wind Warning. Objects outdoors should be secured, and caution should be taken if driving.
Severe Thunderstorm Warning: Take Action! A thunderstorm is happening or is imminent in the warning area. Severe thunderstorms have 58 miles per-hour wind gusts and or hail one inch or larger. Seek shelter inside a sturdy building.
