Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion
Issued at 0031 UTC Wednesday, May 29, 2024
.AVIATION /00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday/...
Issued at 631 PM MDT Tue May 28 2024
For the next hour or two, there is a chance for a few
showers/storms in the vicinity of the terminals. This may bring
brief variable gusts up to 30 kts with any nearby storms.
Tonight, winds at southerly drainage at 08-14 kts. Confidence in
the winds decreases for Wednesday. This is because of the
uncertainty in how the Denver cyclone sets up toward the
afternoon. Winds may end up more easterly at DEN toward the
afternoon as a result and light northerly at BJC. There is a low
chance for scattered thunderstorm in the afternoon (< 30%). There
will likely be some shower/storm activity around the terminals (at
least DEN). This will bring the usual threat of brief variable
gusts 25-35 kts with convective showers/storms.

.AVIATION...KSLC...Isolated showers capable of gusty, erratic
outflow winds are likely through around 06Z. Light southeast winds
will prevail with mostly clear conditions once showers taper off
through around 16Z. A cold front will transition winds to northwest
around 16Z, with gusts around 20 knots through the afternoon. Clouds
will increase, with isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms
from roughly 20-00Z. Gusty, erratic outflow winds are likely with
showers and thunderstorms.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Isolated showers for southwest
Wyoming and northern Utah capable of gusty, erratic outflow winds
will last through around 06Z. Mostly clear conditions with light
winds are likely after. A cold front will track into northwest Utah
around 12Z, sweeping across southwest Wyoming and northern Utah
through the morning and southern Utah through the afternoon and
evening. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are likely
from roughly 20-03Z, with southwest Wyoming and northern Utah most
likely to get gusty, erratic outflow winds.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/...
Issued at 410 PM MDT Tue May 28 2024
VFR conditions will prevail through the first half of the TAF
period. Isolated convection across southwestern Wyoming will end
by 03Z. Winds will remain light through 18Z, apart from a few
brief gusts up to 40 mph at terminals west of the Divide. Clouds
will begin to increase over northwestern portions after 12Z, as
a cold front approaches the area. Showers will be confined to
this area through 18Z as well. Winds will increase at all terminals
after 18Z, as the cold front makes its way over the area,
resulting in gusts of 25 to 30 kt through the afternoon. Showers
and thunderstorms will become more widespread through the
afternoon, as the cold front progresses eastward. Most, if not
all, terminals have a chance to be directly impacted. The wind
will be the main impact, but IFR visibilities/MVFR ceilings and
higher wind gusts could occur if a thunderstorm moves directly
over a terminal.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence forecasts.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/...
Issued at 540 PM MDT Tue May 28 2024
Broad upper level ridge axis will remain over the area tonight ahead
of the next cold front. A weak disturbance aloft will result in a
few showers and thunderstorms over southeast Wyoming this evening,
mainly impacting KCYS and KLAR through 03z. Higher coverage of
thunderstorms expected for Wednesday afternoon across most of the
region.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: Generally VFR conditions expected this
evening and tonight with increasing winds across western Nebraska
due to the low-level jet between 03z and 11z Wednesday. For KLAR and
KCYS, gusty winds over 30 knots and brief MVFR conditions with
locally heavy rainfall possible, but coverage will be less than 20
percent, so will keep VCTS in the TAF for now.

Storms are developing fairly quickly across eastern Colorado and
may impact the KGLD terminal near the start of the period. Mean
flow is to the SE which makes me lean towards the terminal not
being impacted but will need to watch on a either a left mover
the northeast or additional upscale growth; so an AMD may be
needed. Storm threat should end around 04Z, will then need to
watch for stratus or fog potential around sunrise due to the
newly saturated boundary layer and continued moisture advection
from the ESE. Winds will become breezy from the south Wednesday
near 30 knots at times, will then need to watch to for
additional storms just after the end of the period.

Scattered supercells in southeast Colorado are posied to enter
sw Kansas after 00 UTC, perhaps bringing severe weather with up
to 2 inch hail and 60-70 mph wind gusts initially, before
weakening as the storms reach the GCK-LBL corridor in the mid
to late evening (03-06Z). A severe risk cant be ruled out at
GCK or LBL, but heavy rain/reduced vsby/gusty outflow winds are
the heavier bet. The rain cooled boundary layer may then add to
stratus development overnight at least in the MVFR category,
developing after about 9z.

Showers and thunderstorms will continue to impact the combined
Panhandles through the early part of this 00Z TAF period. KDHT and
KAMA are expected to see thunderstorms by the time this period
starts with thunderstorms impacting KGUY maybe another hour or two
into the period. Winds are expected to be easterly to
southeasterly around 12 to 15 kts with possible variations and
gusts caused by the thunderstorms. Initial thunderstorms may be
severe with large hail and damaging winds possible. Later towards
06Z storms may pass but multiple rounds will be possible through
12Z but with less severe potential. Tstorms, may be on and off
allowing for conditions to change through out the 12 hour period
through 12Z. Have stayed optimistic with the TAFs from 06Z through
12Z, with amendments possibly needed. Chances for thunder return
again after 18Z.

Strong to severe thunderstorms continue to impact the eastern
plains of NM. Large hail and erratic gusty outflows will serve as
the primary threats. Activity will either diminish or push out of
the CWFA by mid-evening. A rather well-organized outflow boundary
is currently positioned along a line from central Harding Co. into
eastern Chaves Co. This boundary will bring gusty easterly winds
in its wake, and eventually gap winds to the RGV, including both
the KABQ/KSAF terminals as it progresses westward this evening.
The strongest gusts in the RGV will occur between 06-10Z, and will
require an Aviation Weather Warning. In the meantime, widespread
MVFR/IFR ceilings are favored over the eastern plains through mid-
to late morning, including the KLVS, KTCC and KROW terminals. A
gusty afternoon is forecast for many locations on Wednesday.
