High Wind Warning


... High Wind Warning remains in effect until noon EST today...

A High Wind Warning remains in effect until noon EST today.

The High Wind Warning includes Cape Cod... Marthas Vineyard...

West winds will increase rapidly late tonight as a low pressure

Sustained winds of 30 to 40 mph with damaging gusts as high as
60 mph are likely across Cape Cod and the islands... especially

A High Wind Warning is issued when sustained winds of 40 mph are
expected for at least an hour... with gusts of 58 mph or greater
at any time. Damage to trees... power lines... and property are
