"These winds are forecast to linger for the most of the day beginning tomorrow late morning and will most likely cause challenging driving conditions owing to fallen trees, navigation difficulties for vessels at sea, and possible disruptions to harbours and/or ports." Localized issues for high-sided trucks on high-risk routes, such as cross winds on exposed high-level roads/bridges. These winds are predicted to increase the risk of wildfires."
SAWS\
It also encouraged the people to stay indoors as much as possible and away from windows that face the strong gusts.
"Be wary of the following when moving, especially between buildings: - unexpected cross winds, fallen trees or power lines, and flying debris." Small boats should avoid the open sea and seek refuge in a harbour, river estuary, or sheltered harbour. Make certain that any temporary constructions are securely fastened."
