Texas and several surrounding states are facing extremely high winds, with gusts expected to exceed 65 mph in some areas, prompting warnings from meteorologists for over a million residents. The National Weather Service advises people to stay clear of windows and to avoid the upper levels of multi-story homes due to the risk of falling trees. Additionally, with dry conditions and low humidity, there is an increased threat of wildfires. The situation follows a recent deadly storm in the region, raising concerns about both winds and fire hazards.
AccuWeather senior director of forecasting operations Dan DePodwin stated that the powerful wind gusts can cause severe danger to areas with dry vegetation, leading to fires.
