For those unfamiliar with metres per second, 31 m\/s is equivalent to 111 kph or 70 mph.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">These strong winds have caused the Estonian Weather Service to issue a level two warning for much of Estonia. A level two warning indicates that the weather is dangerous, to follow any advice given by the authorities, and to regularly check the weather forecast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s1\">The winds will be weaker in eastern and southern parts of Estonia, with level one warnings issued in Ida-Virumaa, Tartumaa, Valgamaa, <\/span>P\u00f5lvamaa and V\u00f5rumaa. However, in these areas, winds are still expected to reach up to 22 m\/s or 80 kph\/50 mph, which may still lead to potentially dangerous conditions.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s2\">Source <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ilmateenistus.ee\/ilm\/prognoosid\/hoiatused\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Estonian Weather Service<\/span> <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The Estonian Weather Service has issued a level two storm warning for strong winds across most of Estonia this &hellip; <span class=\"read-more-excerpt\">Read more<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":102538,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[14160,13484,13543,13809,13810,13812,14158,14159],"class_list":["post-102537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-estonia","tag-wind","tag-weather-in-estonia","tag-weather","tag-storm","tag-strong-wind","tag-weather-warning","tag-strong-wind-estonia","tag-level-2-warning"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102537"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":102544,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102537\/revisions\/102544"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102538"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
