.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

High pressure over the area will keep conditions dry through at
least the middle of next week. Northwesterly flow will lead to
seasonably cool conditions this afternoon with highs in the 50s
along with less wind in comparison to yesterday. As trick- or-
treating time starts to roll around early this evening,
temperatures will likely range from the upper 40s to the mid 50s
by late afternoon, and fall into the 40s areawide just after
sunset. With light winds and high pressure overhead it will be
chillier overnight with lows in the mid 20s to the mid 30s.

As the center high starts to shift slowly east tomorrow, the
flow will gradually turn more westerly aloft and temperatures
moderate a bit with highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s. A
warming trend continues through mid-week, with upper- level
ridging building in aloft and the flow becoming more south-
southwesterly. Afternoon highs early next week will be running
well above average in the 60s with some valley locations even
making a run at 70 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday. The next
opportunity for more meaningful rainfall looks to be later
Wednesday night into Thursday as a frontal boundary approaches.

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Mainly VFR conditions are expected. The one area of uncertainty
is at KELM late tonight/early Sunday morning. Conditions are
slightly more favorable for fog compared to last night, but
definitely not a certainty with dry air in place and potential
higher clouds moving back in. If there would be fog, it would
likely be in the 09Z-13Z timeframe.

Outlook...

Sunday night through Wednesday night...Mainly VFR, potential
for morning fog at KELM.

Thursday...Scattered showers may bring occasional restrictions.

.BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
