Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast

We've enjoyed six straight days with above-normal temperatures. We're not going to make it to seven.

A powerful cold front will push into the region early Tuesday morning, bringing us plunging temperatures, gusty winds and wet weather.

And, yes, it looks like there will be rain for your trick-or-treaters. Some of us could pick up a half inch of rain (or maybe a little more).

But after that, dry weather returns. And it looks like it'll stick around for awhile.

That cold front will send temperatures tumbling 30 degrees or more.

We're going to go from the mid 80s on Monday afternoon to the mid 50s by Tuesday afternoon. And it looks like it'll be a few degrees cooler on Wednesday.

But after that, we start a warming trend. While we won't make it back to the 80s anytime soon, we'll be back in the 60s by Friday and lower 70s by the weekend.

Could we make it two mild and dry weekends in a row? Stay tuned.
