Gusty Winds Expected Throughout Region

The National Weather Service has issued a high wind warning, which due to the recent rains could cause severe damage.

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook for Southern California, with Santa Ana winds being the main issue.

Forecasts call for wind gusts up to 60 mph in some areas, with sustained winds of 25 to 40 mph. The weather service also warns that due to the recent rains, trees could be tumbled over because of loosened soil.

That loosened soil could also cause debris to be blown onto roads, and increased dust being blown across the region.

Because of the high winds, certain sheltered areas could see temperatures dip to or below freezing overnight Wednesday, causing frost.

The winds are expected to continue through Thursday. Officials warn drivers of high profile vehicles to be cautious on the roads, and delay trips if possible, especially though the mountain passes.

The forecast calls for sunny skies through Saturday, with high temperatures remaining in the mid- to upper-60s.

@Muslim radicals are the problem here. This jihad/war whatever the hell you want to call it, willRead More never end in our lifetime. Ultimately the Muslims will win. Look no further than Europe. Unless there is a full fledged worldwide war, they really can't be stopped. Their numbers are too great. What we are doing in Afghanistan is nothing more than swatting away a bee every time one flies out of the hive. But there are millions still in the hive. Unless we close our borders to people from the Middle East and parts of Eastern Europe, what happened in Boston will continue. It's not racist to not like Muslims just like it wasn't racist to not like the Russians during the Cold War or Germans during WWII.

Thanks to these two scum brothers, I can no longer transport my hearty meals in my trusty pressureRead More cooker via backpack. As an alternative, I tried to fit a crock pot, but it ruined my backpack zipper and made a meatball/marinara mess inside my backpack; even making way into the USB ports of my laptop. Sorry, tupperware won't cut it. It just gets too hot and eventually leaves a huge welt on my back.
