A Wind Advisory is in effect until 7 this evening.

South winds will be 15 to 25 miles an hour sustained and gusts will be up to 45 miles an hour.

Gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects.

Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result.

Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high profile vehicle.

As we get into Thursday, moderate to heavy rainfall can be expected.

That may lead to localized flooding and rises on creeks, streams, and waterways.

A Flood Watch is in effect from Thursday morning through late Thursday night.

Additionally, the rain on Thursday evening may end as a brief wintry mix, with a light glaze of ice and minor snow or sleet accumulations possible, especially on elevated surfaces. 

A rapid freeze-up is expected Thursday night as temperatures drop quickly below freezing.
