FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category VFR, wind from 80° at 7 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling none. Forecast suggests tonight scattered showers and thunderstorms, low near 78F, 32% chance of precipitation. Key risks: thunderstorms in the forecast. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Scattered Showers And Thunderstorms" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.
