VFR CONDITIONS AND DRY WEATHER ARE EXPECTED THIS FORECAST PERIOD.  
EXPECT GENERALLY LIGHT AND DIURNALLY DRIVEN WINDS ACROSS THE  
TERMINALS, HOWEVER, A WEAK TROUGH WILL MOVE SOUTH THROUGH THE  
PLAINS LATER TODAY. THIS SHOULD KEEP A NORTHERLY WIND AT COS, AND  
HAVE TRENDED THE FORECAST THIS WAY FOR COS. CONFIDENCE OF THIS  
TROUGH IMPACTED PUB IS LOWER, AND SO AT THIS TIME, HAVE MAINTAINED  
AN EAST SOUTHEAST DIURNAL COMPONENT BUT WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP A  
CLOSE EYE ON TRENDS FOR THE NEED TO ADJUST TO A NORTHERLY WIND.

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE PERIOD FOR  
KGLD AND KMCK. HOWEVER, THERE IS A SLIM (5-10% CHANCE) THAT  
KMCK COULD SEE MVFR OR BRIEFLY IFR VISIBILITIES CONDITIONS SOME  
TIME BETWEEN 3-15Z WEDNESDAY. SOMEWHERE, LIKELY EAST OF KMCK, A  
SURFACE WIND CONVERGENCE ZONE WILL SET UP. ALONG AND EAST OF  
THAT AREA WILL LIKELY BE FOG AND/OR STRATUS. OTHER THAN THAT,  
WESTERLY WINDS WILL PREVAIL AND A GOOD DAY FOR FLYING IS  
EXPECTED AT BOTH SITES!
