The morning will start with scattered rain and potential thunderstorms, particularly in eastern areas, before the cold front moves through.

National Weather Service forecasters said that this storm brings with it gusts of wind up to 20 miles per hour and temperatures in the 60s.

After weeks of monsoon-fueled thunderstorms, wildfires and sweltering heat, " an early season cold front " is expected to bring temperatures down across California this week. "We're going to have rapid cooling, with the biggest drop in temperatures tomorrow," Kristan Lund, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Oxnard, said Monday. "This is one of the biggest cooldowns we've seen, especially since June. ... This will bring temperatures pretty far below normal."
