WHAT HAS CHANGED

Dropped the Flood Watch.

KEY MESSAGES

1) Heavy rainfall threat has ended. Area streams and rivers will continue to remain high. Please continue to heed remaining road closures. Fog development is likely overnight.

2) An extended period of dry weather will occur from Thursday into at least the early next week with temperatures generally within a few degrees of normal.

DISCUSSION

KEY MESSAGE 1)

Mid level flow becomes northwesterly overnight with surface high pressure building into the Great Lakes. Axis of showers and thunderstorms with heavy rain threat has pushed southeast of ILN/s area. A few lingering light rain showers will come to an end with surface boundary slipping south of the area. With the heavy rain shifting out of the area - new flooding is no longer expected to pose a threat. Therefore, the flood watch has been cancelled. Area streams and rivers will continue to remain high. Please continue to heed remaining road closures.

Abundant low level moisture, clearing skies and light winds will lead to the development of fog overnight. Have a mention in the forecast and will continue to monitor and assess the potential need for a dense fog advisory.

KEY MESSAGE 2) High pressure will remain in place across the region through the weekend, providing for dry and seasonable conditions.

AVIATION /01Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/

Showers and embedded thunderstorms will continue to push off to the southeast ending early evening. Lingering MVFR ceilings will improve to VFR with skies clearing out early this evening. High pressure will build into the region overnight into Thursday. Mostly clear skies and light winds will lead to some MVFR to locally IFR fog. Have MVFR restrictions at all sites with IFR at the KLUK valley location. Visibilities will improve quickly to VFR Thursday morning as fog dissipates with only few to scattered cumulus and some high level clouds.

OUTLOOK...No significant weather expected.
