Update: A Windy Forecast For The Sierra Nevada

Sponsored by:

The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for the western slope of the northern Sierra Nevada and Yosemite National Park (above the valley floor), through 7 AM Wednesday.

Northeast winds of twenty to thirty-five mph will continue, with gusts ranging from forty to seventy-five mph. The higher you ascend, the stronger the winds.

The strongest winds are expected in the late evening through early morning periods.

Such gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result.

Winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution while driving. Be alert during all outdoor activities.
