Morning downpours have given way to extremely high winds in the central Shenandoah Valley today causing electrical outages and runaway trash cans.Our electricity was out for an hour-and-a-half earlier this afternoon when apparently a tree branch fell across the lines. Thanks to the hard-working Shenandoah Electric Co-Op guys, we are now back online but it could happen again before this wind moves out.
WHSV TV-3 out of Harrisonburg has issued the following alert:
A wind advisory has been issued for the entire viewing area until 8 p.m. Saturday. Wind gusts could be as high as 50 miles per hour Friday night. Gusts may get as high as 60 miles per hour Saturday, especially in higher elevations. Travel conditions could be dangerous, especially for high-profile vehicles.It's a blustery day ... hang onto your hats!
