.AVIATION /07Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 645 PM EST Tuesday...

VFR conditions across area terminals will persist through the
00z/24 TAF period. BKN-OVC CIGs around 5000-6000 ft AGL at SBY 
will clear out early Wed AM, with clear/mostly clear skies 
below 12000 ft expected at the remainder of the terminals 
through the period. Light winds become NW overnight, with 
occasional gusts to 15-20 kt likely on Wednesday. 

Outlook: VFR Wednesday night. A frontal boundary and fast 
moving low pressure system will bring a low end chc for showers 
Christmas Day, with SBY having the highest chc for flight 
restrictions. Additional short-lived flight restrictions are 
possible late Friday afternoon into early Saturday as onshore 
flow develops.
