WICHITA, Kan. —

A Wind Advisory is in effect until 8 p.m. tonight. The National Weather Service office in Wichita says West winds 20 to 30 miles per hour with gusts up to 45 are expected.

Gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. Hazardous driving conditions will exist due to low visibility.

Isolated to scattered showers may develop this afternoon across portions of central and south-central Kansas. These showers may be accompanied by wind gusts to 50 miles per hour.

Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high profile vehicle and secure outdoor objects.
