.AVIATION /08Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
VFR is forecast for the entire period.

Cold front is east of the area. Drier airmass will continue to
move into the region the next 24 hours, keeping mostly clear
skies at all taf locations. Biggest issue through the period
will be the winds and associated gusts. Look for a few more 
hours tonight of 20-30 knot gusts before things settle down 
after 08z. Sustained winds will likely remain elevated overnight
though as a strong pressure gradient is forecast to remain in 
place across the region. Winds are expected to become gusty 
again through the daytime hours, especially after 15z with 
frequent gusts of 25-30 knots forecast through the day. Wind 
direction is expected to be westerly to northwesterly through 
the period.


EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Strong and gusty winds expected
again on Friday with gusts in excess of 25 knots possible.
