.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

No significant weather impacts are expected over the next week
plus. The pattern will continue to be dry with high pressure
dominating for the bulk of the forecast period. Only exceptions
will be tomorrow afternoon and evening and again on Thursday as
dry cold fronts push through the region. These fronts will bring
an increase in wind gusts, however they will also bring an
increase in relative humidity, which alleviates some of our fire
weather concerns. Wind gusts of 15 to 20 mph will be possible
starting tomorrow afternoon. Minimum RH will range in the upper
40s to low 50s percent in the mid afternoon, before increasing
in the late afternoon and evening as the stronger wind gusts
arrive. Due to the increase in RH, we are not expecting to issue
any fire related special weather statements, but will continue
to monitor fire weather conditions closely.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Conditions will continue to be mainly VFR this TAF period. With
clear skies expected once again tonight, there may be valley
fog at ELM with IFR/LIFR visibility restrictions, but confidence
is lower compared to previous nights. Winds will be mainly
light and variable until midday Monday. A cold front will move
through the region with winds becoming more northwesterly. Some
gusts around 15 kts are expected at SYR and RME.

Outlook...

Monday Afternoon through Monday Night...MVFR ceilings possible
as front passes through.

Tuesday through Friday...Mainly VFR. Morning fog at KELM
possible each morning. Low chance for showers at SYR and RME
Thursday night with frontal system moving through.
