Aviation Forecast Discussion

.AVIATION /08Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, 
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Through 12Z...VFR with no significant weather. Increasing 
cirrus. Winds generally southerly around 5 kts. High confidence.

Today...VFR in the morning with increasing clouds. Scattered 
showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop mainly after 
18z, and these could bring restrictions if any of these storms 
move over a TAF site. The best chances (50-60% chance) for this 
look to be around RDG/ABE with lower chances (30-50% chance) 
farther south and east toward MIV and ACY. Winds mainly south to
southwest around 5-10 kts, except 10-15 kts around ACY. 
Moderate confidence overall, low confidence exactly where storms
will impact terminals.

Tonight...Initially VFR outside of any lingering showers or 
thunderstorms, however some areas of fog/haze and/or stratus 
development are possible with MVFR restrictions. Winds diminish 
to around 5 kts or less, favoring a southerly direction. High 
confidence in initially prevailing VFR conditions, but low 
confidence on the occurrence and timing of any restrictions in 
fog/haze/stratus overnight.

Outlook...
Friday through Saturday night...MVFR/IFR conditions possible due
to chance TSRA and potential low clouds/fog during late
night/early morning periods when precip tapers and higher clouds
break.

Sunday through Monday...Mainly VFR with NO SIG WX currently
anticipated.
