558 WWUS81 KBUF 241931 SPSBUF Special Weather Statement National Weather Service Buffalo NY 231 PM EST Sun Feb 24 2019 NYZ001>003-010>012-019-085-250000- Niagara-Orleans-Monroe-Northern Erie-Genesee-Wyoming-Chautauqua- Southern Erie- Including the cities of Niagara Falls, Medina, Rochester, Buffalo, Batavia, Warsaw, Jamestown, Orchard Park, and Springville 231 PM EST Sun Feb 24 2019 ...DANGEROUS WINDS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING... Very strong and damaging winds will continue this afternoon and early evening from the Lake Erie shore northeastward across the Niagara Frontier and Genesee Valley, including the Buffalo and Rochester areas. Peak wind gusts will reach 75 mph at times. Winds of this magnitude will result in extensive damage to trees and power lines, widespread power outages, and property damage to roofs and siding. Buildings which are under construction and older deteriorating buildings may experience significant damage or even collapse. This is a particularly dangerous situation! If you must travel be prepared for extensive damage and downed power lines. Always assume power lines are live. Falling trees and power lines will create a very dangerous environment to be outside in, including in vehicles. Seek shelter in a substantial building until the strongest of the winds begin to subside. $$ Hitchcock
