.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Aviation updated.

Models continue to have problems with forecasting dewpoints,
especially during the afternoon, which impacts the RH forecast.
Continue to lower them. Low temperatures were also lowered as
wedging developing over the region starting tonight, will start
to advect cooler air from the Northeast down into the Mid-
Atlantic states.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Dry with seasonable temperatures through the end of next
week.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1:Dry with seasonable temperatures through the end
of next week.

The region will continue to remain under the influence of
surface high pressure through next week. With high pressure and
mostly clear skies over the region through the next week,
temperatures look to moderate to more seasonable values in the
60s and 70s for highs each day, and 30s/40s for lows at night.
Overnight temperatures were lowered some as surface wedging
looks to develop tonight across the region. This will help
advect cooler air from the Northeast into the Mid- Atlantic
states over the next several days as high pressure remains
quasi-stationary across the Northeast.

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

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period. There is
some CAM guidance showing low clouds develop over mountain
terminals to include BCB, LWB, and BLF early Saturday morning
starting around 10 UTC, but confidence is low at this time given
the fairly dry airmass in place to include in those terminals.


EXTENDED OUTLOOK...

VFR conditions likely to continue into next week. Any fog
should be limited to over bodies of water, and not foreseeing
any issues at the TAF sites.

&&

.RNK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
VA...None.
NC...None.
WV...None.
