Sì, ci sarà venti forti.
Use the plural future "saranno" because "venti" is plural.
Sì, ci saranno venti forte.
The adjective must agree in number; "forti" is the correct plural form.

The impersonal future uses "ci saranno", not "ci è", which is present tense.

Cultural Tip
Italian weather reports often use the impersonal construction "ci saranno" to talk about future conditions (e.g., "ci saranno piogge" – there will be rain). In the north, people may also say "vento forte" in the singular when referring to a general windy situation, but the plural "venti forti" is the standard way to describe multiple gusts or sustained wind.
