Special Weather Statement
Issued by the National Weather Service at 3:13 PM CST on March 9, 2010
... Strong winds and blowing dust expected Wednesday...
Westerly winds are expected to become sustained at speeds in
excess of 30 mph over much of the South Plains region by midday
Wednesday. These winds will persist through much of the afternoon.
A few gusts may approach 60 mph... especially over the central and
southern South Plains. Patchy blowing dust will limit visibility
and the winds will combine with dry air to result in a high fire
danger.
Area residents and those planning travel across the South Plains
Wednesday should prepare to encounter strong winds and reduced
visibilities. Wind advisories and/or warnings may become required.
