.DISCUSSION...A cold front will approach from the northwest on
Monday. Low clouds will arrive overnight or early Monday ahead of
the front, resulting in partly to mostly cloudy skies during the
day. Even so, it will be mild as warmer and more humid air (by
November standards) blows into the area on increasing south to
southwest winds. Locations with exposure can expect gusts to top
20 mph in the late morning and afternoon. Although transport winds
will be decent, a lack of full sun will limit mixing depths. A
shower can`t be ruled out toward evening, but the bulk of the
day is expected to be dry.
