FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category VFR, wind from 340° at 3 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling 4,100 ft. Forecast suggests tonight scattered rain showers, low near 40F, 49% chance of precipitation. Key risks: thunderstorms in the forecast. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Scattered Rain Showers" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.
