Fall begins on Tuesday, with cooler and breezy conditions. A persistent gusty northeasterly wind will prevail through the end of the week with a potential coastal storm.

The Autumnal Equinox will be on Tuesday at 8:04 p.m. Tuesday will be the coolest day this week, with highs in the low 60s and lows in the upper 40s to low 50s.

Limited sunshine, gusty winds and unseasonably cool temperatures continue Wednesday into this weekend.

A potential coastal storm will bring rounds of rain, gusty winds, beach erosion and coastal flooding Friday into the weekend. The weather computer models are not in complete agreement with the placement of the offshore low and how long it will meander nearby as of Monday evening's forecast. However, there's a risk of coastal flooding, dangerous rip currents, and beach erosion due to the influence of a full moon, gusty winds and a nearby coastal storm.
