.AVIATION /03Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Current radar (as of 8:00pm EDT) outlines first showers entering SW PA with ceilings starting to trend downwards. Radar returns at this point might continue to be elevated due to low-level dry air but generally expect rain to begin in the 01-03Z timeframe at JST/AOO. Ceilings at onset are expected to remain VFR through 04Z before deteriorating conditions across southwest PA overspread northeast into Wednesday morning. Widespread light to moderate rain showers will bring reduced cigs and visibility to all airfields during the day tomorrow. Recent guidance does outline widespread IFR conditions with high confidence after 12Z Wednesday and throughout the end of the TAF period. LIFR conditions cannot be ruled out at BFD/JST/AOO/UNV; however, recent guidance has trended away from these conditions prevailing, so have lower confidence this cycle and have limited these mentions to the AFD. Thunderstorm potential at JST/AOO will be possible during the afternoon/evening; however, confidence also remains too low at this time for mentions in the 00Z TAF cycle. Outlook... Thu-Fri...Ocnl SHRA/TSRA. Sat & Sun...Still a chance of a shower. &&
