.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Complex set of TAFs for today, with spotty SHRA/TSRA increasing
in coverage across portions of central PA during the predawn, 
followed by more numerous SHRA/TSRA alongside lowering cloud 
ceilings as a trough of low pressure moves across the region 
during the morning & afternoon. VFR is favored outside of any 
SHRA/TSRA during the predawn hours. Gradual improvements behind 
the low pressure expected after 18-21z, although low clouds 
could redevelop across the Laurels and northern mountains later 
tonight.

A more defined cluster of showers and storms associated with 
the trough will move west to east across our area between the 
early morning and late afternoon, resulting in prevailing MVFR-
IFR ceiling restrictions with periodic MVFR-IFR visibility 
restrictions. Heating may be sufficient for strong to severe 
thunderstorms across eastern Pennsylvania (best chance at 
KMDT/KLNS), with gusty/damaging winds being the primary threat. 

Outlook...

Wed...Restrictions likely with IFR to MVFR stratocu and
SHRA/TSRA beneath upper low

Thu...Improving conditions with lingering -SHRA. Patchy AM fog.

Fri...Mainly VFR.

Sat...Patchy AM fog. Restrictions possible in isolated
showers/storms mainly in the south.
