Stronger winds today with Wind Advisory in effect until 7 p.m.

Gusts up to 55 mph out of the southwest.

A cold front will move through late Friday and that will drop temps back down this weekend.

Highs will be back to the normal range for this time of the year and winds will be much lighter.

Weather forecast for Feb. 7, 2025

No major traffic incidents to worry about this morning, but with the strong gusts being felt across the valley, it wouldn't be unusual to see some debris blowing across the road on your morning commute.

Take a little extra time in your drive to account for the strong winds and everything that blows in with it.
