FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category MVFR, wind calm, visibility 10 SM, ceiling 2,300 ft. Forecast suggests this afternoon chance light rain, high near 55F, low near 38F, 31% chance of precipitation. Key risks: no significant hazards are highlighted right now, but always confirm against an official briefing. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Chance Light Rain" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.
