Special Weather Statement issued January 28 at 8:57AM CST by NWS Quad Cities IA IL
West southwest to west winds will again gust up to 45 mph this afternoon. Winds this strong will blow around loose objects and make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. The strong winds in combination with low humidity and mild temperatures will again result in a very high fire danger. Any fires that develop will spread quickly. The strongest wind gusts currently look to occur between 1 and 4:30 PM this afternoon. It is highly recommended to avoid any activities that can easily start a fire today.
