.AVIATION /01Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 735 PM EDT Wednesday...
A cold front is still to the NW of the terminals this evening,
but it will cross the terminals tonight. Scattered showers will
persist INVOF RIC/PHF through 04-06z before gradually
diminishing. There is a slight chc of a tstm, but this is most
likely to the SW of RIC/PHF. Flight conditions should remain
VFR through tonight as the showers will be fairly light. Rain
chances end after 06z. Winds increase out of the NE (especially
near the coast where gusts of ~20 kt are expected) by 08-12z as
the front moves well to our south. Some MVFR stratus is
possible near the coast from late tonight through much of
Thursday with the onshore flow, with VFR CIGs expected to
prevail at RIC.
Outlook: Dry/VFR conditions will prevail from Thu night through
the weekend. Can't rule out a stray shower on Saturday.
