The National Weather Service in Paducah says that as a potent fall storm system approaches on Saturday, very gusty winds will sweep across the region on Friday night.
Meteorologists expect gusts of up to 45 miles per hour from the south by Friday evening, continuing through Saturday morning.
They advise you to use the next two pleasant days to secure loose objects in your yard like lawn furniture, garbage cans and holiday decorations.
The wind will also blow in moderate to heavy rain showers on Saturday, but severe weather is not expected. Total rainfall is anticipated from a half inch to just over an inch, with southeast Missouri getting the higher amounts.
