.AVIATION /14Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Prevailing VFR conditions are expected amongst the terminals through
this evening. Temporary reductions are possible at times this
afternoon and evening due to scattered showers and thunderstorms.
Highest confidence for afternoon showers and storms appears to be
from a line south of CBE/MRB to BWI/MTN. Locations further south
toward IAD, DCA and CHO have a better opportunity for showers and
thunderstorms given the placement of shortwave energy rolling
through.Thunderstorm development would likely occur between
20-01z/4-9pm. Coverage will be isolated to scattered with more
scattered to widespread shower activity overnight as the front
swings through. Went with PROB30s to encompass the afternoon
shower and thunderstorms threat with prevailing showers this
evening based on current guidance. Beyond the showers and
thunderstorms, not looking at a whole lot of low clouds nor fog
outside the mountains. Skies will remain between SCT-BKN this
afternoon trending BKN-OVC this evening as the front pushes in.
MAV/MET guidance continues to hold a high likelihood of low
cigs/vsbys mainly west of Blue Ridge heading into Friday
morning. This will be something to monitor in subsequent TAF
cycles. Any temporary restrictions this evening into early
Friday morning will give way to VFR conditions Friday afternoon
as brief dry air moves into the region. A leftover shower or
thunderstorm is possible from KCHO south Friday afternoon and
evening as the front stalls nearby.
Additional scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible during
the afternoon/evening hours this weekend. This will lead to
temporary reductions amongst the terminals at times otherwise VFR
conditions will prevail. South to southeast winds Saturday will
switch to the west and southwest winds Sunday at less than 15 kts.
Winds turn to the north and northwest Monday and Tuesday as VFR
conditions continue.
