Many counties are included in a wind advisory for this afternoon.  These are the areas where wind gusts could exceed 45 mph.  This means driving may become difficult, especially on north- south oriented roadways such as I-55, I-57, and I-155.  Also, any unsecured outdoor items could easily blow away.
