 .AVIATION /14Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
High pressure over the area will move offshore this afternoon. 
A warm front approaches this evening and draws closer tonight. A
cold front approaches from the west tomorrow morning.

Primarily VFR today. The only exception is for some MVFR or IFR
early this morning at KSWF. Expect some FZFG there early this 
morning. 

Cigs lower late this afternoon with the approach of a warm
front. Conditions will gradually lower to IFR/LIFR or possibly
even lower, along with the chances of rain, mainly after 00z. 
Once the front lifts north, there will either be a break in the 
precipitation or we will see a period of drizzle, before another
round of rain moves in with a cold front. Terminals north and 
west of NYC could see the precipitation start as a period of 
freezing rain as temperatures will be slow to reach freezing. 
Most confident that KSWF will see FZRA, and a shorter period of 
FZRA at KHPN. 

Light N to NW flow or variable wind direction expected this 
morning. The flow slowly increases to 5 to 10kt this afternoon 
at the city and coastal terminals as flow gradually backs to the
SW, then more S towards this evening. A S-SW flow is then
expected through the rest of the TAF period. 

 ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...

Amendments possible this evening as precipitation overspreads
the area and flight categories change. 

.OUTLOOK FOR 15Z MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

Monday: IFR with rain/showers, Improving to VFR late day/early 
evening. SW winds G20-25kt.

Tuesday: VFR. W winds G25-30kt.
