.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

Cold front shifts east of the area this morning and drier air
moves over the region for today. The area of low pressure
stationed across the Mid-Atlantic Coast and across the Great
Lakes could bring some light showers later this afternoon and
evening, but best chances appear to stay west/east of the area
at this time. Chances for rain increase again for this weekend,
as an upper level low moves over central NY on Saturday. This
system will bring periods of rain rain showers right through
Sunday morning. There will be a brief lull in shower activity on
Sunday and then another upper trough dips down across the
region and brings additional rain chances Sunday night into
Monday. A slight reprieve from wet conditions appear possible
late Monday through Wednesday, before an unsettled pattern takes
hold of the region towards the end of the week.

.AVIATION /12Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...

Just enough breaks formed within the lower ceilings to allow
the formation of some fog over KELM and KAVP this morning. Most
locations around these sites only had very quick hitting fog if
anything at all. Looks like it will take some sunlight to burn
off the fog which may not be till 14Z or so. VFR for the
remainder of the day afterward. Ceilings lower later tonight
with showers moving in toward daybreak as well.

Outlook...

Saturday through Sunday...Showers may bring occasional
restrictions.

Monday...Mainly VFR though lingering showers also possible.

Tuesday...Mainly VFR with low chance for showers at RME.
