.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1:Dry with seasonable temperatures through early next
week.

Surface high pressure will continue to dominate the area into early
next week. With clear skies and light winds overnight, and plenty of
sunshine during the day, can expect big diurnal swings in
temperatures, though they will stay around seasonal norms for this
time of year. High temperatures will be in the 60s and 70s and
lows in the 30s and 40s.

At this time, no precipitation is expected through at least early
next week, and is not looking likely for the remainder of the
month.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period, with
north/northeast winds between 5-10 knots. Some gusts of 10-15
knots possible at LYH and DAN this afternoon. With a dry
airmass in place, fog formation at night will be difficult
except for right along river Valleys. Given this uncertainty in
fog formation, restrictions have been left out of LWB TAFs for
the time being.


OUTLOOK...

VFR through next weekend. River valley fog may occur; however,
with dry air over the region, confidence is low in its
formation, and overall impact to terminals such as LWB and BCB.
