Unseasonably warm temperatures, very dry air, and gusty winds will result in critical fire weather conditions across the region Monday.

A strong cold front then moves through during the afternoon and evening, which will bring even stronger winds with gusts as high as 50 to 55 mph.

A Red Flag Warning is in effect for fire concerns and a High Wind Watch is in effect for the potential of severe wind gusts.
