.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A mix of VFR and MVFR/Fuel-Alt conditions are expected over the
next few hours as showers stream northward ahead of an 
approaching strong cold front. There can be brief visby drops to
IFR, but most obs so far have been around 3-4 miles with these 
showers, and a rumble of thunder cannot be ruled out, especially
around AVP. A convective line of showers and possible embedded 
thunderstorms with the actual cold front will move from west to 
east across the terminals between 20Z and 02Z with strong winds 
and a wind shift out of the west. This convective line can 
produce 35 to 45 knot wind gusts as the front moves through. 

In the wake of the front temperatures drop rapidly with 
precipitation transitioning from rain to snow quickly. The snow 
won't last long as the precipitation begins to move out of the 
region by around 06-07Z for all terminals. Some lake effect snow
showers off of Lake Ontario are expected to develop near the 
end of the TAF period around RME and SYR. Snow showers off of 
Lake Erie could potentially reach ELM and BGM as well. Lingering
LLWS at AVP and BGM is expected to diminish this evening. 

Outlook:

Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday Night...Snow showers become 
more localized as lake effect snow over SYR and RME late on 
Tuesday. With winds staying gusty, blowing snow will also be 
possible.

Wednesday...Mainly VFR.

Thursday and Friday...Mainly VFR; a low chance for spotty 
rain/snow showers.

Friday night into Saturday...A chance for additional rain/snow
showers as a clipper moves through the region; low confidence on
timing.
