QUAD CITIES, Iowa/Ill. (KWQC) -- YOUR FIRST ALERT FORECAST FROM CHIEF METEOROLOGIST ERIK MAITLAND:

***FIRST ALERT DAY: THURSDAY & FRIDAY A.M. FOR FROST/FREEZE***

The strongest gusts will diminish into Tuesday night but areas farther north will have to put up with gusts around 30 mph into the night. Wednesday will still be windy, but most areas will get some sun back. More clouds will stick around northwest Illinois through much of the day.

High pressure arrives in the Midwest for the balance of the work week. This will mean daytime sun for Thursday and Friday and highs in the 50s and 60s, but some very cold mornings. First Alert Days have been issued for Thursday and Friday mornings as lows in the low to mid 30s will produce our first freeze (north) and widespread frosts of the season.
