(3:00PM Mon, Oct 7th 2022) A storm system moving through the region on Friday and Saturday brought a period of high winds to the state, late Friday night/early Saturday morning through Saturday evening. These high winds were a product of rapidly developing/deepning storm system moving through the region, aiding in a rapidly strengthening wind field at the surface and on aloft into the atmosphere. Additionally, a line of showers along a cold front moving across the state on Saturday transported isolated higher wind gusts to the surface.
Wrap-Up... •A period of southeast to southwesterly wind gusts upwards of 40-65MPH occurred across much of the state, from late Friday night/early Saturday morning through Saturday evening. •A line of showers along an advancing cold front moving across the state on Saturday produced locally higher wind gusts of 60-80MPH. •The high winds produced isolated to scattered occurances of tree damage, property damage and power outages.

(7:30PM Fri, Nov 4th 2022) As a developing and deepening storm system moves through the region today and Saturday, winds at all levels of the atmosphere will respond by rapidly increasing. With enough mixing from the surface up into the lower atmosphere, some of the higher winds aloft will be transported to the surface.
Timing & Location... •Tonight - Saturday Evening, Nov 4-5th: All of Illinois. Impacts... •A period of high winds is expected, with wind gusts upwards of 40-60MPH likely. •The expected wind gusts will be strong enough to blow around lightweight objects and cause some tree damage.
