.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
There is high confidence in VFR conditions continuing through
the 18Z TAF period as high pressure over Central PA begins to
shift to the east. Mid and high clouds will increase in 
coverage during the afternoon and evening as warm advection 
increases ahead of a moisture-starved disturbance approaching 
from the west. Model soundings suggest that much of this cloud 
cover will dissipate during the day on Thursday and partly 
cloudy to mainly clear skies are expected after 12Z. 

Winds will shift to the west-southwest Thursday afternoon which
will lead to clouds developing at BFD and JST. Moisture will be
very limited, at least initially, so not expecting any snow 
showers prior to 18Z. Model RH profiles do suggest that lower
ceilings develop during the late afternoon and a few lake effect
and upslope snow showers could lead to visibility restrictions 
at BFD and JST into the evening.

Outlook...

Thu Night...Restrictions possible at BFD and JST with -SHSN.

Fri...MVFR/IFR conditions possible with -shsn in northern & 
western PA mainly during the day. 

Sat...VFR/no sig wx. 

Sun-Mon...MVFR in -shsn possible in northern & western PA.
