Instruction:
A Blowing Dust Advisory means that blowing dust will lower
visibilities to less than a mile, resulting in hazardous driving
conditions.
Motorists should not drive into an area of blowing dust. Remember,
Pull Aside, Stay Alive.
A Wind Advisory means that winds of 30 to 39 mph with higher gusts
are occurring or expected. Winds this strong can knock down tree
limbs and make driving difficult, especially for high profile
vehicles. Secure loose outdoor objects.
Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high
profile vehicle. Secure outdoor objects.
