WILL BE A QUICK SHOT OF HEAVY RAIN WITH THE BRUNT OF THE RAINFALL
FALLING IN A PERIOD OF 6 HOURS OR LESS. THESE RAINFALL AMOUNTS

WILL INCREASE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. WINDS ALOFT WILL
ALSO INCREASE. IF ANY THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP SOME OF THESE HIGHER
WINDS ALOFT MAY MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE. ISOLATED WIND GUSTS TO
NEAR 50 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE IN ASSOCIATION WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS
THAT MAY DEVELOP. EVEN WITHOUT THUNDERSTORMS...LINES OF HEAVY
SHOWERS MAY PRODUCE WIND GUSTS BETWEEN 30 AND 45 MPH...WHICH COULD
