Wind advisories today; gusts 30 to 45 MPH

The National Weather Service has issued a lake wind advisory today for Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley.

South winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 30 mph are expected from noon today to 8 p.m.

Strong winds and rough waves on both lakes will create hazardous conditions on the open water for small craft.


A separate wind advisory has been issued for portions of southern Illinois, southeast Missouri and western Kentucky this afternoon until 8 p.m.

Southwest winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph are expected.

Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result.
