Wind advisory issued for Wednesday; rain chances expected to follow

Parts of mid-Missouri are under a wind advisory on Wednesday.

The National Weather Service says 45 mph gusts could knock down tree limbs and cause power outages.

Authorities have warned about high fire risk lately, too. Boone County’s fire protection district just worked 35 fires in a three-day stretch.

Forecasters said we will go from wind and fire risks to several days of rain, starting Wednesday.
