Aviation... 
widespread cumulus field has once again developed. The short period of 
MVFR ceilings has quickly become VFR with daytime heating. 
Thunderstorm development has been quite spotty...so not confident 
enough to add any tempo groups. If any storms reach a terminal... 
impacts should be relatively brief at less than an hour but could 
result in a heavy downpour and frequent lightning. SW to west winds 
will be slightly gusty but below 20 kts. Winds will relax some 
overnight but not go completely calm. Increasing winds expected 
tomorrow. VFR conditions will prevail at all terminals.
