Could see 40mph+ wind gusts here from Wednesday evening through Friday morning, with two periods of 50mph+ gusts possible.

Can't think of a period of wind like that in recent memory.

Yeah the only storm I can think of that would be remotely like that is the 98 storm at this time of year.

Even in November 1998, ORD had 40+ mph gusts from about 7 AM on the 10th to about 4 AM on the 11th.

Here in the QCA it looks like we could have some 45-50mph wind potential in the warm sector late Wed afternoon/early evening before the convection moves through.  Then sort of a lull (relatively speaking) before the core of strong northwesterly winds moves through around daybreak.  Could see 45-55mph wind gusts with that.  Still thinking the main shot of CAA and associated speed max with better mixing could yield strong wind gusts Thursday night.  Possibly well into advisory levels.

GFS forecast soundings would indicate some high wind warning criteria possibilities for northern IL early Thu.  The soundings indicate mixing up to about 900mb, where winds are in the 55-60kt range.  That's 60-70mph just off the deck.  Considering unidirectional wind profiles, mixing up to around 900mb, and possible precipitation helping to bring down some higher momentum air I think a 2-4hr period of warning criteria winds are quite possible over eastern IA and northern IL Thursday morning.
