.DISCUSSION...
As of 300 AM Sunday...

KEY MESSAGE 1...  A continuation of dry and seasonable conditions is
expected through this week, with moderating temperatures to around
10F above average by Halloween.

A sub-tropical ridge will progress slowly ewd and across the
Southeast this week, then drift off the South Atlantic coast by next
weekend. An increasingly-active srn stream will direct a series of
perturbations across the lwr mid-latitudes and sub-tropics mid week
through the weekend.

At the surface, a series of reinforcing, Canadian surface highs will
progress across the Great Lakes and Middle Atlantic and extend
across cntl NC through the week, with the next in the series led swd
by a moisture-starved backdoor front across the srn Middle Atlantic
late Tue-early Wed. The ridge and airmass will then modify/moderate
while extending across the region through Halloween. A prolonged
period of dry and mild conditions will result.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 200 AM Sunday...

High pressure will extend across the region and maintain primarily
VFR conditions in cntl NC through the 06Z TAF period. However, a
fleeting MVFR ceilings will be possible again this morning at
INT/GSO around and more likely just after 12Z; and shallow radiation
fog will be possible tonight at RWI due to local effects. Nely flow
around the aforementioned surface high will strengthen and become
gusty to near 20 kts at FAY and RWI with daytime heating, then
diminish by sunset.

Outlook: A reinforcing, moisture-starved cold front will move across
NC Tue night, with following nely flow that will result in a risk of
MVFR ceilings Wed and Thu morning.

.RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
