Heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms could also bring some stronger gusts late tonight. A cold front will cross the region early Thursday morning... with winds shifting to west and southwest.

A Wind Advisory is issued when sustained winds are forecast to be 31 to 39 mph or gusts will range between 46 and 57 mph. Winds this strong are capable of Downing small tree limbs and branches... possibly causing isolated power outages. Driving can also be difficult... especially for high profile vehicles.
