Wind Advisory for Davidson County until 8 p.m. Saturday, with gusts to 40 mph
NWS now expects east winds of 10 to 20 mph; unsecured objects and tree limbs at risk
NASHVILLE - The National Weather Service in Nashville has a Wind Advisory in effect for Davidson County and much of Middle Tennessee from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, according to an alert the agency issued at 11 p.m. Friday.
The weather service expects east winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. That is lower than the 15 to 25 mph winds and 45 mph gusts in its earlier Friday advisory.
The agency says gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects, and tree limbs could be blown down, which may cause a few power outages.
The weather service says winds this strong can make driving difficult, especially for high-profile vehicles, and urges extra caution.
