.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Through 00Z Saturday...Showers are spreading southwest to
northeast as evident on radar and surface observations. However,
dry surface air has been slow to modify keeping conditions VFR.
Therefore, have kept VFR conditions longer with 30% chance of
MVFR CIG/VIS 03-06Z for most terminals with more pervasive CIG
degradation after 06Z. Some IFR possible for MPV/SLK/EFK, but
will depend on how much saturation occurs over the next 3-6
hours. CIGs improve after 12-15Z with more isolated shower
chances tomorrow. Best chances of showers/thunderstorms will be
16-21Z as a front sweeps west to east with surface winds turning
westerly. 

Outlook...

Friday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA, Patchy BR.
Saturday: VFR. Slight chance SHRA, Slight chance TSRA.
Saturday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Sunday: VFR. Slight chance SHRA, Slight chance TSRA.
Sunday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Monday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Monday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
