Sabrina Ullman: Calm night; cold front Monday

September 29: Cool, windy evening

Tonight will have overnight lows in the 40s and a gusty southeast wind.

Skies will be clear tonight, and the east wind will become south after midnight. Overnight lows will be in the 40s for the most part, but we could see a few locations drop to the upper 30s.

Winds will increase throughout the day on Monday. Afternoon highs will be in the 70s to low 80s. A dry but strong cold front will move through the region in the late afternoon to evening, bringing seasonal weather.

Afternoon highs will be in the upper 50s to mid-60s starting Tuesday. Areas of frost will be likely later this week, particularly Thursday night and again Saturday morning. Dry conditions will continue this week. Between the dry weather and the gusty winds, there is a risk for any fires to spread easily.
