Plenty of clouds and plenty of wind are in the forecast for Wichita today.

Highs should reach the mid- to upper 60s, forecasters say, but it is the wind that will likely get noticed the most in the metropolitan area. South winds in the teens will intensify to the 20s and gust above 30 miles an hour today.

The winds should stay robust overnight and persist on Friday, though gusts may peak in the mid-20s. Highs should again be in the mid- to upper 60s, forecasters say, and there should be more breaks in the clouds.
