Wind advisory in effect and watch for icy patches

A wind advisory is in effect until noon today, with west-wind gusts of more than 30 mph. possible.

The National Weather Service said the strong winds follow the departing storm that hit the state over the weekend. "Winds will diminish later this morning as the storm moves off," the weather service advisory said.

The weather service also cautioned people -- particularly those heading out early -- that there could be icy patches on untreated roads. Given the cold temperatures that moved in overnight, slush and standing water have frozen quickly.

The forecast says it will be sunny with a high near 31 degrees, but the wind will make it feel much colder.
