FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category MVFR, wind from 350° at 9 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling 1,700 ft. Forecast suggests sunday chance rain showers, high near 56F, low near 41F, 41% chance of precipitation. Key risks: strong winds in the forecast. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Slight Chance Rain Showers" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.
