A COLD FRONT HAS MOVED THROUGH THE AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON,

FROM FULL SUNSHINE. TONIGHT, BEHIND THE COLD FRONT, WINDS WILL
DIMINISH TO AROUND 5 MPH OR LESS, AND SKIES WILL REMAIN MOSTLY
CLEAR. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP INTO THE UPPER 20S TO

BETWEEN 5 AND 10 MPH. WHILE WE WILL BE MOSTLY SUNNY, WE WILL STILL
BE WITHIN THE COOL AIR MASS BEHIND TODAY'S FRONT, KEEPING HIGHS IN
