wind around 5 kt this morning becoming easterly then 
southeasterly at 5 to 10 kt by this afternoon. An isolated 
afternoon shower with locally sub- VFR conditions is possible 
especially near PHL, ILG, and MIV, but not expected to be 
widespread enough to include a mention in the PHL TAF at this 
time. Moderate to high confidence.

likely develop near or after 06z.  Southeast wind around 5 kt but 
winds may turn light and variable or calm. Moderate to high 
confidence.

morning due to lingering stratus, then turning VFR. VFR continues 
into Thursday night, but patchy fog or areas of showers with sub-VFR 
conditions are possible near RDG and ABE. Southeast wind 5 to 10 kt 
through most of the period, becoming more southerly later Thursday 
night. Moderate confidence.

thunderstorms with occasional sub-VFR are likely. Areas of fog with 
sub-VFR conditions may develop overnight. South-southwest wind 5 to 
10 kt becoming light and variable overnight. Low to moderate 
confidence.
