AS A STRONG COLD FRONT HAS PUSHED ACROSS THE ALLEGHENY FRONT INTO
THE EASTERN WEST VIRGINIA PANHANDLE, A NUMBER OF OBSERVATIONS HAVE
INDICATED WESTERLY GUSTS TO AROUND 40 TO 50 MPH. WHILE BRIEF IN
NATURE, THIS COULD LEAD TO HAZARDOUS TRAVEL GIVEN THE ABRUPT
NATURE OF THIS UPTICK IN WINDS. THIS COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY BRING

NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND.
NO WIND ADVISORIES ARE EXPECTED AT THIS TIME GIVEN THE BRIEF
NATURE OF THESE WINDS.
