.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Pesky low MVFR ceilings are continuing to hang on for much of
the area as low level moisture continues to stick around. A few
lingering bands of snow are also present over central and
eastern PA which have brought visibilities down over MDT. These
snow showers will likely diminish before 00Z. There is some
possibility for improvements to VFR across the region for the
remainder of this afternoon, but confidence overall remains low
with the current cloud decks struggling to break up. If
improvement does occur it will not last long. Loss of daytime
heating will allow for lowering of ceilings again into tonight.
Tuesday afternoon should see some scattering out of clouds
across the southern tier of the state and the return of partly
sunny skies. 

Gusty northwesterly winds are expected statewide through 
tonight, with peak wind gusts generally between 20 to 30 kts. 
Blowing/drifting snow is possible due to these gusty winds, 
though the extent of blowing/drifting might be limited by the 
wet character of the snow that's fallen.

Outlook...

Mon...MVFR/IFR restrictions possible in snow showers at 
BFD/JST, otherwise improving to VFR with gusty northwesterly 
winds.

Tue...MVFR-IFR restrictions possible in snow showers at 
BFD/JST, largely VFR elsewhere.

Wed-Fri...Restrictions possible in rain/snow showers.
