.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1: Quiet weather through the upcoming week. Next
chance of showers will be next weekend.

You can expect the Nor`easter off the mid-Atlantic coast to
bring some gusty winds today and Sunday to portions of our area
mainly in the 15-25 mph range. Some mid and high clouds could
surge southward at times but overall mostly clear skies
expected. Should be a good sunset/evening to watch the Harvest
moon rise.

Through the middle of next week, 5h heights build and
temperatures will start rising above normal, though with drier
airmass, low temps may be closer to normal.

Upper ridge breaks down next weekend as a trough pushes into the
Midwest. Should see moisture increasing by Saturday with shower
chances returning.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

VFR conditions present areawide, and will persist through the
current TAF period, ending 00Z Monday, outside of fog at KLWB,
where vsby could drop below 1SM late tonight into early Sunday
morning. Otherwise, skies stay clear for most, with some high
clouds pushing into the northern portions of the forecast area
later Sunday.

Northwest to northerly winds are still gusting up to 20 knots
or so, but these gusts should diminish within the next couple of
hours. Gusts return Sunday late morning or so, up to 20 knots,
higher possible along the higher elevations.

Forecast confidence is high.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...

VFR conditions will persist through mid-week. Nightly chances
of some river/mountain valley fog will be possible, with any
sub- VFR conditions improving rapidly after sunrise.
