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.
