Based on Fey's observation that the temperature drops suddenly while she is measuring increasing wind speeds, the best prediction she can make is:
**A. A cold front is moving in.**
A cold front is characterized by a sudden drop in temperature and often comes with increased wind speeds. The other options do not align as closely with the observed changes in temperature and wind speed.
