No significant changes nor impacts in this forecast. Dry weather
into the weekend, a slight chance of a light shower tomorrow
night in southwest Virginia, then a weak front brings more light
rain chances Saturday night. The front won`t be dragging in a
harsh airmass, and return flow will return mild November air in
rather quickly anyways after it. Next week a shortwave is expected
to traverse the area from west to east but ENS and GEFS still
have a difference in where the accompanying jet streak is and
where the surface low is. Those differences will determine how
much of the area sees rain on Tuesday.

Out west a more active weather pattern will be setting up, but
low confidence at this time for how that will evolve and when
those systems will make their way eastwards to our portion of
southern Appalachia Wednesday and beyond. Otherwise the forecast
is for mild temperatures to continue, with Saturday being the best
day ahead of the weak cold front.

VFR and dry conditions prevail. Low chance of patchy fog this
morning, maintained the mention at KTRI, but not confident on VIS
restriction potential. Otherwise winds will be less than 10 knots
and light, falling to calm late. High cirrus around at times.
