We&#8217;ve been setting the stage for some big time winds for the weekend and confidence is increasing that these winds may cause issues Saturday night and Sunday.

This front ushers in much colder air for much of next week.<\/p>\n<p>Winds will increase from west to east Saturday afternoon and evening. The initial wind direction is coming from the south and southwest, then switches to the west and northwest behind the front.
