Cold front to move into the Ozarks with gusty winds

Brisk and gusty southerly winds are expected from Saturday into most of Sunday with gusts up to 30 mph likely. A strong cold front will then shift winds to the northwest from late Sunday afternoon into Sunday evening. Northwesterly wind gusts up to 30 to 40 mph are again possible. Below normal temperatures will result in the additional potential for frosts and freezes on a nightly basis from Monday morning through Wednesday morning. Elevated fire weather conditions are expected next Monday.
