Strong winds will spread across the entire region this morning. Hazards will include difficult travel due to strong crosswinds, especially for high profile vehicles, areas of blowing dust and poor visibility on the plains, isolated power outages and broken tree limbs, and potential for rapid wildfire spread should a new fire start. Peak gusts in many areas will reach the 50-60 mph range. Winds will gradually decrease this afternoon and evening.
