...Gusty South Winds Tonight...

Strong south winds will gust 30-40 mph at times late this evening
and into the overnight hours over most of southeast Missouri, and 
generally to the west of Interstate 57 in southern Illinois. The 
gusty winds should diminish some before sunrise Wednesday. The 
strong wind gusts will blow around unsecured objects and could 
make driving difficult on east west oriented roadways.
