.AVIATION /12Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 625 PM EST Monday...
VFR conditions currently across area terminals will prevail
through the 12Z/13 TAF period. Light W-SW winds average 5-7 kt
early this morning under a mainly clear sky. Expect SW winds to
increase a bit late this morning, gusting to 15-20 kt by the
afternoon.
Outlook: Dry/VFR conditions are expected across the mid-Atlantic
through midweek. Increasing low-level wind shear is expected
ahead of an approaching cold front late this evening into Wed
afternoon. The front will cross the region Wed evening, with
some light rain showers possible behind the front late Wed
night into Thursday morning. A brief period of sub-VFR
conditions will be possible early Thu morning, as a secondary
front crosses the region, ushering in a much colder airmass for
the late week period into the weekend.
