WHAT…Southwest winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts 45 to 55 mph expected.

WHERE…Much of Northern Arizona.

WHEN…From 9 AM Monday to 8 PM MST Tuesday.

IMPACTS…Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could snap resulting in a few power outages. Travel will be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Patchy blowing dust will lead to reduced visibilities, resulting in hazardous driving conditions at times, mainly through the Little Colorado River Valley.
