.DISCUSSION...
BEST BAND OF PRECIPITATION ALREADY EAST OF KOWB...WITH ONLY 
SCATTERED AREAS OF DRIZZLE OR SPRINKLES BEHIND IT. DID NOTICE SOME 
LOWER VISIBILITIES IN CENTRAL ILLINOIS...BUT IT IS UNLIKELY THIS 
AREA WILL REACH OUR NORTHERN ZONES THIS AFTERNOON. LEFT A SLIGHT 
CHANCE OF VERY LIGHT RAIN TO THE NORTHEAST OF A FAIRFIELD ILLINOIS 
TO ROCKPORT INDIANA LINE...WITH A BUFFER ZONE OF SPRINKLES TO THE 
SOUTHWEST OF THAT AREA. SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE HOLDING IN THE 
LOWER 40S IN THE NORTHEAST...AND ALL UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS INDICATE 
LIQUID PRECIPITATION. THEREFORE REMOVED ANY MENTION OF SNOW. ALSO 
TWEAKED TEMPERATURES UP A BIT...ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHWEST...WHERE 
SOME SUNSHINE IS EXPECTED.
 
&&

.AVIATION...
SHOULD SEE AREA OF MVFR CEILINGS FLIRT WITH NORTHERN HALF OF THE 
AREA...INCLUDING THE KEVV AND KOWB TERMINALS...THROUGH THE 
AFTERNOON...AND POSSIBLY THROUGH THE EVENING IN THE NORTHEAST. 
OTHERWISE CLEARING SHOULD BEGIN FROM WEST TO EAST LATER THIS 
AFTERNOON AND THROUGH THE EVENING. MOST OF THE AREA WILL BE CLEAR BY 
06Z. MAY SEE SOME LINGERING 1-2KFT CLOUDS IN THE EAST THROUGH THE 
NIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY...BUT THEY SHOULD BE MORE SCATTERED IN NATURE. 
GUSTY WEST NORTHWEST WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH WITH SUNSET. A 5-8KT WEST 
TO SOUTHWEST WIND SHOULD PREVAIL FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD IN 
MOST LOCATIONS.
