.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
High confidence in VFR conditions through the next 24 hours.

Cooler and drier air continues to build into the region tonight
as winds shift more northeasterly and pick up to around 5 to 10
knots with a 25-30 knot low level jet. Winds continue to veer
through the day Wednesday to more easterly and possibly even
southeasterly after 19z and begin to weaken a bit as high
pressure settles overhead. Skies should remain mostly clear
through the period but some thin cirrus clouds may move over
the area on Wednesday. Thinking winds and dry air mass should
prevent fog concerns. 

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Dry air makes restrictions unlikely
through Thursday. Then, deeper moisture spreads into the 
Southeast late this week ahead of the next system. Rain chances 
and the threat of restrictions returns for late Thursday and 
Friday.
