.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1: Another cold night in store for central PA.

High pressure will slide east overnight, with winds shifting
around to the SW across west central PA. This should make frost
less likely tonight in the places that were coldest this
morning. However, frost will be possible to the east where winds
will be calm, closer to the center of the high. A frost advisory
for portions of the east tonight.

-------------------------------------------------------------

KEY MESSAGE 2: Extended stretch of dry and seasonal Fall
weather this week, followed by a chance of rain on Sunday
into Monday.

High confidence in a prolonged stretch of dry and seasonable
Fall wx this week with cool nights and refreshing afternoons
with low humidity. This will give the area a much needed chance
to dry out from the wet summer and early fall so far.

The next chance of rain is on Sunday, as moisture moves up from
the Gulf Coast states. However, there is still ample uncertainty
regarding how much of that moisture makes it into our region.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
High pressure will keep clear skies and VFR conditions over
the region into at least early Wed aft. Windx will be on the
light side as well.

A weak cold front will move southeast across central PA later
Thursday into Friday, but moisture is very limited. Not much
chance of any showers or fog. Thus VFR conditions will be the
largely predominant flight category right through Saturday.

That being said, potential restrictions for a 2-3 hour period
(09-12Z) due to patchy valley fog could occur at KBFD, KUNV and
KIPT mainly Friday and Saturday morning as high pressure at the
sfc and aloft becomes located over PA.

Outlook...

Thu-Sun. VFR conditions expected.

&&

.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
