COUNTIES THROUGH 10 PM...

At 847 PM EDT, radar indicated an area of intense winds aloft
overspreading the region, which are likely to begin mixing down to
the surface as 55 to 65 mph gusts through 11 pm. An isolated gust to
75 mph is possible.

This magnitude of wind can blow down many trees and power lines,
causing widespread power outagess. Travel will be difficult,
especially for high profile vehicles.
