High winds caused damage across Northeast Wisconsin overnight into Tuesday, and could last throughout most of the day.

In Brown County. the sheriff's office said more than six trees were reported down along with some power lines. Construction barrels and equipment was also blown out of place, deputies said.

A wind advisory was also issued for the Leo Frigo Bridge in Green Bay.

Deputies are reminding drivers to use caution on rural roads and allow extra distance between cars because the wind is pushing larger vehicles into other lanes.
