West to northwest winds gusting 30 to 35 mph this afternoon over east central IL is causing some blowing dust near some open fields. Visibilities could be restricted to a mile or less at times. We had a recent report from a trained spotter of a blowing dust plume near Thomasboro in northern Champaign county along intersection of 1000 east and 2500 north. Also had a report of blowing dust southwest of Danville in central Vermilion county between Catlin and Tilton. Be ready for a sudden drop in visibility to less than a mile. If you encounter blowing dust on the roadway or see it approaching, pull off the road as far as possible and put your vehicle in park. Turn the lights all the way off and keep foot off the brake pedal. Winds should diminish late this afternoon and early evening reducing the amount of blowing dust in the area.
