...WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM TO 6 PM EST FRIDAY...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A WIND
ADVISORY...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM TO 6 PM EST ON FRIDAY. 

DELIGHTFUL SPRING-LIKE WEATHER TEASED THE REGION ON THURSDAY, AND 
EVEN PRODUCED A RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE AT MT. POCONO WHERE THE 
THERMOMETER REACHED 55 DEGREES. BUT, THE CALENDAR SAYS FEBRUARY AND 
A BIG CHANGE IS IN STORE OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

LOW PRESSURE OVER THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY WILL MOVE TO THE EASTERN
GREAT LAKES OVERNIGHT, AND CONTINUE TO THE SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEY ON 
FRIDAY. THE ATTACHED COLD FRONT WILL BLAST THROUGH THE REGION ON 
FRIDAY MORNING.

ALTHOUGH ONLY A QUARTER OF AN INCH OF RAIN OR LESS IS EXPECTED TO 
OCCUR WITH THIS FRONT, THE BIGGER STORY WILL BE THE LOCALLY STRONG 
WIND GUSTS JUST AHEAD OF AND ALONG THE COLD FRONT. LOCALIZED AREAS, 
ESPECIALLY OVER HIGHER TERRAIN AND EXPOSED LOCATIONS, COULD 
EXPERIENCE WIND GUSTS NEAR 40 MILES AN HOUR. THERE COULD EVEN BE AN 
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM AS THE FRONT MOVES BY. IN ADDITION, EVEN 
STRONGER WESTERLY THEN NORTHWESTERLY WINDS BEHIND THIS COLD FRONT 
WILL BRING MUCH COLDER AIR TO THE REGION FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND 
ESPECIALLY FRIDAY NIGHT. SUSTAINED WINDS FRIDAY AFTERNOON ARE 
EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 25 TO 35 MPH RANGE WITH WIND GUSTS NEAR 50 
MILES AN HOUR, ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN. 

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 CAN MAKE DRIVING DIFFICULT...ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH PROFILE 
VEHICLES. USE EXTRA CAUTION.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS, OR YOUR FAVORITE MEDIA 
SOURCE, FOR FURTHER UPDATES.
