RICHMOND, Va. -- A cold front will move through our area heading into Sunday evening. Ahead of the front, it will be breezy and warmer. Gusts over 25 mph will occur.

As the front crosses the state, there will be a narrow line of showers. These showers will not last very long, but they may produce wind gusts in excess of 40 mph. There is the potential for some gusts over 55 mph, especially over northern Virginia. The strong gusts, combined with saturated soils, may cause some trees to come down.

The front will move through western Virginia by late afternoon.

The cold front will cross the metro between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.

Rain should exit southeastern Virginia by 10 p.m.

Monday will be sunny with highs in the upper 50s and lower 60s. A stronger cold front will pass on Tuesday with just a few clouds, but it will bring the coldest weather since March.

Lows Wednesday morning will be below freezing away from the immediate coast, with many areas in the 20s.

Highs Wednesday will stay in the 40s across central and eastern Virginia.

Thursday morning will be cold again with temperatures in the 20s to around 30 away from the immediate coast.

Temperatures will moderate the rest of the week with highs in the 60s Friday into next weekend.
