After a short-lived dip in speed on Tuesday afternoon, the winds are expected to accelerate to dangerous levels from Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning. Gusty winds and dangerous conditions could linger into Thursday or even Friday. However, in a few areas, winds may reach stronger levels than during those earlier events. The longer-lasting strong winds will occur mostly across Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. Moderate to strong winds may even reach the Los Angeles County coast, especially in the Hollywood Hills, Beverly Hills and Sepulveda Pass, and extending into Palos Verdes and Catalina Island from Tuesday evening into Wednesday, according to forecasters in the Los Angeles National Weather Service Office.
