DISCUSSION
Key Message 1: Dry and breezy weather continues into next week with near normal daytime temperatures.
High pressure to our northeast continues to lock the pattern in across the region. Outside of mid-level cloud cover across eastern SC, dry and clear conditions will continue into Sunday with breezy northeast winds, 20-25 mph in the afternoon. Temps into mid-week will be consistent each day with highs in the 70's and lows in the 40's. The pattern starts to show some signs of breaking down by late week, but rather quietly as opposed to a strong frontal passage.
AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
VFR conditions expected through the next 24 hours.
High pressure and dry air continues to dominate the region. Winds have diminished a bit with 6 to 10 knots likely overnight. A strong LLJ will help limit fog development tonight. By Sunday mid-morning, winds should pick back up with gusts occasionally up to 20 knots. Mostly clear skies are expected with some possible FEW- SCT VFR clouds at OGB with Atlantic moisture coming onshore.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Breezy northeast winds expected to persist into next week with wind gusts over 20 knots each day as the pressure gradient remains tight.
CAE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
SC...None. GA...None.
