First Strong Cold Front of the Season to Arrive on Monday...


The strongest cold front so far this fall season will move into the region on Sunday night/pre-dawn Monday, resulting in strong and gusty winds and much cooler temperatures area-wide on Monday.

Northerly wind will increase to 20-25 mph sustained with frequent gusts to 35 mph from just before dawn on Monday through late Monday evening. Several peak wind gusts of 35-40 mph are also expected, mainly between 9am and 6pm on Monday.

The combination of the strong, gusty winds along with temperatures falling into the 50s throughout the day will produce wind chill or "feels like" temperatures in the 40s by Monday afternoon and evening.

The wind should gradually start to subside toward Midnight late on Monday evening/Monday night, lowering mainly into the 15-25 mph range by that time.


We will continue monitoring the situation and issue updates as conditions warrant.
