A strong low pressure system will bring breezy to windy conditions this weekend along with well below normal temperatures by Sunday.

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Big changes are on the way this weekend! I am tracking a weather system that will move into the region this weekend, which will bring in breezy and windy conditions on Saturday and Sunday. Extra moisture will be coming to the region, but rain chances aren't looking to be favoring our area as of now.

A Weather Authority First Alert Action Day is issued and will go into effect Saturday and Sunday for the Desert Southwest due to strong winds and widespread blowing dust. Unhealthy air quality and difficult driving conditions are expected for Cinco De Mayo weekend.

A Wind Advisory is issued for parts of Imperial County 5 pm until midnight Saturday for gusts 40-45 MPH.

A Air Quality Alert is issued for parts of Imperial County Saturday through Sunday for widespread dust.

Also, a High Pollution Advisory is issued for parts of Yuma County all day Sunday.

The first round of winds will arrive Saturday afternoon and evening as these winds will be coming from the south and southwest with gusts 25-45 MPH.

Then the next round of winds will rejoin Sunday as winds shift direction and coming from the west with gusts 30-45 MPH.

It will be a very gusty weekend, but we will be noticeably cooler as temperatures will drop into the low and mid-70s by Sunday and cool conditions will even linger into Monday.

I am tracking calmer winds next week, with a big warm-up on the way. We have a round of triple-digits by next Friday.
