East San Diego County has seen gusts up to 86 miles per hour, according to 10News Meteorologist Megan Parry.
A Red Flag Warning will remain in effect until 5 p.m. Wednesday for the coast to the mountains. The winds coupled with humidity levels in the single digits and near record low fuel moisture leave our region ripe for a fire.
A High Wind Warning is also in effect for the valleys and mountains through 5 p.m. with the peak winds arriving after sunrise through early this afternoon. Downed trees and power lines will be a major concern as well as hazardous driving conditions.
