strongest winds are likely to occur. Be especially careful driving
in these mountainous areas. People driving high-profile vehicles
should strongly consider postponing travel in these areas until the
winds subside.

Delay travel through Guadalupe Pass or find another route, if
possible.

Use caution if flying low near the mountains as severe turbulence is
possible.
