today and into Saturday. A secondary cold front will bring

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1)
The initial line of showers and storms is moving quickly southeast
across southeast portions of our area early this morning. With the
outflow moving out ahead of this line and the storms moving into a
less favorable environment, expect a continuing weakening trend
through daybreak, although a few showers may linger across our far
southeast through the morning hours. Otherwise, surface high
pressure will shift east across the mid/upper Ohio Valley tonight
into Saturday, providing drier and somewhat cooler conditions.

In progressive westerly flow aloft, some additional mid level energy
will help push a secondary cold front east through the Ohio Valley
on Sunday. This will lead to another round of showers and
thunderstorms later Saturday night and into the day on Sunday.
Behind the front, dry and cooler conditions are expected on Monday.

&&

.AVIATION /10Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Lingering showers will continue to taper off through mid morning
with some MVFR cigs developing. MVFR cigs will likely persist
through the remainder of the morning before beginning to scatter
out heading into this afternoon as high pressure and a drier airmass
builds into the region. Expect mainly clear skies overnight. With
light winds and some residual surface moisture, some patchy fog will
be possible late tonight.

OUTLOOK... Thunderstorms possible again on Sunday.
