Wind predictions have been upgraded a bit overnight ...

From the National Weather Service:

"WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY INCREASE FROM THE SOUTH EARLY
SATURDAY MORNING...WITH SUSTAINED SPEEDS POSSIBLY REACHING 40 TO
45 MPH BY NOON. WIND GUSTS LATE SATURDAY MORNING INTO SATURDAY
AFTERNOON COULD REACH 65 MPH.

WINDS WILL SHIFT TO SOUTHWEST AND BRIEFLY DIMINISH TO 30 TO
35 MPH WITH GUSTS CLOSE TO 45 MPH EARLY SATURDAY NIGHT...BUT WILL
PICK UP AGAIN DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. BLUSTERY AND POSSIBLY
DAMAGING WEST WIND GUSTS COULD AGAIN REACH 65 MPH ON SUNDAY...
ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS."This could be interesting.Eisboch


We're expecting rain & heavy winds also. Spent all day working on our
new backyard deck addition ahead of the storm.
