COLUMBUS, Ohio - Unseasonably warm weather in Ohio won't last and will be ushered out by a cold front with storms and high winds.
National Weather Service wind advisories covering most of Ohio on Monday will be in effect from midmorning to early evening. Forecasters say high temperatures in the low 50s will fall during the afternoon as the cold front passes. It's expected to bring showers and thunderstorms that will be accompanied by wind gusts of up to 50 mph.
The weather service cautions that winds could blow down trees and power lines and cause minor damage to property.
