Wind bringing bad visibility to a central part (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mistral

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wind' is the definition.
(mistral is a kind of wind)

'bad visibility to a central part' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'a' is present in the answer.
'part' could be 'mi' (mi is a kind of part) and 'mi' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'bringing' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mistral that I've seen before include "Nice chiller" , "Strong cold dry wind" , "Strong north wind of southern France" , "Cold dry wind in southern France" , "Famous wind in the Rhone Valley blowing towards the Med" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
