Winds from 30 to 40 mph with gusts up to 65 mph could develop Thursday morning through Thursday evening in Kent and the rest of the Puget Sound region.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

High winds are possible during Thursday afternoon and the evening commute, according to the National Weather Service<\/a>, which issued the high wind watch early Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Winds at such speeds can topple large trees, especially with the saturated soils from recent rainfall. Power outages are likely to occur and may be widespread.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

A high wind watch means there is potential for a damaging wind event and forecasts should be monitored closely.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
