.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Restrictions increasing the remainder of the night, lasting into
Monday.

With plenty of low-level moisture across the region, and a cold
front slowly pushing southward through the forecast area through
the period, all guidance is fairly consistent with bringing
ifr/lifr ceiling restrictions to all taf locations early this
morning. Latest metars are already showing many areas already
dropping into ifr, with only a few exceptions. Will generally be
starting all taf locations off with some sort of either mvfr or ifr
ceilings, then basically expecting all sites to become ifr/lifr
by morning and lasting through the end of the 24 hours taf
period. Periods of showers are also expected, with some 
visibility restrictions also tossed in with the heavier shower 
activity. All in all, will not be a good period for general 
aviation flying.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Scattered to widespread showers and
isolated thunderstorms into Monday morning likely lead to 
restrictions. Drier air begins to filter in Monday afternoon,
with improving conditions possible by that time.
