Post cold frontal showers for the rest of today.A cold front will brush the region tomorrow with strong pressure gradient thereafter to lead to strong gusty winds,gusts in excess of 90 km/h possible near the coast and in the southwest.With deep cold air mass over the region from afternoon,can't rule out the possibility of thunderstorms and/or small hail,most likely in the south.

With the subtropical high pressure ridge lying to the north continued showery weather on Monday and Tuesday,another cold frontal passage likely on Wednesday.
