Strong south winds gusted from 45 to 50 mph. The peak wind gust was 47 mph at Paducah, 46 mph at Hopkinsville, and 45 mph at Owensboro. Shingles were blown off some roofs in the Owensboro area. The strong winds occurred in advance of a strong cold front that moved across southern Illinois during the late afternoon. The strong winds brought down some tree limbs that were laden with ice from the February 11 ice storm. This caused a setback in efforts to restore power following the ice storm.
