.AVIATION /06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1140 PM MDT Mon Jul 14 2025
VFR through Tuesday evening. Drainage winds are established at
the terminals this evening and should continue through most of the
overnight hours. Expect a turn to the southwest between 09-12z,
followed by northwest winds most of Tuesday morning. A little
uncertainty if winds eventually turn N/NNE by the afternoon hours,
but did not opt for any changes to the previous TAF. Overall a
lower chance of gusty showers/outflow winds at the terminals
Tuesday afternoon with the previous PROB30 still covering that
potential well enough.
By Tuesday evening, northeasterly flow looks like it will
establish, leading to a gradual moistening trend overnight.
Guidance hints at stratus potential after 06z Wednesday with
better potential towards MVFR/IFR cigs by Wednesday morning.

KALS...generally VFR conditions through the next 24 hours. A few
showers and thunderstorms will be possible across the San Luis
Valley on Tuesday afternoon in the 23-01z time period. Gusty
outflow winds will be the main concern.
KCOS and KPUB...VFR conditions through the next 24 hours. A
cold front will arrive Tuesday afternoon, bringing a northerly
wind shift with gusts near 25 kts possible into the evening.
There is a very low probability of an isolated shower, but
confidence in occurrence is low at this time. Mozley

A few isolated showers continue overnight over the higher terrain
with outflow gusts to 40+ kts. Look for these to become limited
to mostly north of the I-70 corridor after 08Z. Otherwise
expect VFR conditions with light winds through 18Z after which
winds will pick up from the west to northwest along with
isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms lasting into the
evening. Wild fires in the region are producing heavy smoke
that may periodically impact KGUC, KMTJ and KGJT with reduced
visibility through the TAF period.

.AVIATION...Tuesday 15/06Z through Wednesday 16/06Z...Mostly VFR
conditions will prevail, but brief MVFR conditions in SHRA/TSRA
possible. -SHRA remains along and south of a KPRC-KSOW line this
evening, but more scattered activity is expected after 18Z.
SHRA/TSRA chances increase to widespread after 00Z, primarily
Flagstaff eastward. FU/HZ likely near KGCN and KPGA from local
wildfires.
OUTLOOK...Wednesday 16/06Z through Friday 18/06Z...Daily chances
for SHRA/TSRA will continue, with best chances between 18Z-04Z
each day. Outside of reduced visibilities and ceilings in heavier
storms, VFR conditions should prevail. W-SW winds 5-15 kts
gusting near 25 kts expected during the afternoons, but
gusty/erratic winds from storms will be likely.

.AVIATION...KSLC...VFR conditions will persist at the KSLC terminal
through the TAF period. Gusty northerly winds may persist until 04-
05z before shifting to the southeast if current showers in NW Utah
persist after sunset...thus added a Prob30 for periods of gusty and
erratic winds should these showers impact the terminal.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR conditions are expected to
persist through the TAF period. Generally diurnal winds continue
while the overall flow remains light across UT aside from typical
gusty westerlies at KEVW. The slight chance for isolated showers and
thunderstorms near KCDC and KBCE continues into early evening, with
a potential for gusty and erratic winds.

VFR conditions will prevail tonight into Tuesday morning. Moisture
will increase tonight into tomorrow as a weather system moves in
from the north. This weather system will bring widespread shower and
thunderstorm chances to the area beginning Tuesday afternoon.
Impacts are likely (70%) from these showers and storms at terminals,
but confidence remains low on the exact timing of impacts, thus
PROB30 groups remain for now. With the increased moisture values it
is conceivable vis may drop to MVFR/IFR with the strongest storms.
Damaging wind gusts will be possible with storms across the area and
large hail will be possible with storms east of The Divide, Tuesday
afternoon and evening. A strong cold front will push through tonight
into tomorrow from north to south, with a wind shift becoming
northerly east of The Divide. This front will result in an increase
in wind speeds tonight through Tuesday evening. low clouds will move
into northern Wyoming Tuesday evening, with IFR conditions at KCOD
by 03Z.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

A Surface cold front will move south across the high plains starting
late tonight and early Tuesday morning. This front is forecast to
stall across southeast Wyoming late Tuesday night bringing
widespread rainfall and thunderstorms to the region through
Wednesday.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: A few remaining showers are producing gusts
up to 55 mph near KBFF and possibly CDR. Otherwise, these showers
will continue drifting east and weakening through 08z.
Generally VFR conditions expected through tonight and Tuesday.
Expect some thunderstorm develop as the cold front moves south, so
mentioned the possibility of thunder (PROB30) for most terminals.
Nocturnal thunderstorms and low CIGS are expected near KCDR, KAIA,
and KBFF after 04z Wednesday with IFR conditions possible.

VFR conditions will remain in place through Tuesday afternoon.
Increasing clouds are expected by mid to late afternoon in advance
of the next thunderstorm potential. While location and timing still
has some uncertainty, anticipate thunderstorms to develop by late
afternoon across the Sandhills. Impacts to both terminals should be
expected through mid-evening before storms push to the southeast.
Across northern Nebraska, some lingering showers are possible
through at least 06Z Wednesday.

Expect LLWS tonight from the south at 35-40 kts around the
200-500 feet AGL height. There is a chance some gusts around 30
kts could mix down to the surface before sunrise, but they will
be sporadic. As the sun rises, the low level jet will weaken
and the inversion will erode. We will see southerly winds pick
up in the mid morning, being fairly similar to yesterday.
Around 0Z, both KGLD and KMCK will see a potential of strong to
severe storms moving in from the west. KGLD has about a 15-25%
chance of seeing these storms while KMCK has a 30-40% chance of
seeing the storms. These look to be run of the mill high based,
High Plains storms, so expect erratic winds and visibility
reductions if you run into a storm. Storms look to leave the TAF
sites between 4-6Z, but we could see IFR ceilings by 12Z
Wednesday.

VFR conditions will prevail in vicinity of all TAF sites through
late Tuesday afternoon. Light south-southeast winds through mid-
morning Tuesday will increase 15 to 25kt generally after 14-15Z as
lee side troughing slowly strengthens in eastern Colorado.

Only a few showers remain in the middle Rio Grande Valley tonight.
An outflow boundary associated with these showers will continue
its way south down the Rio Grande Valley, creating gusty outflow
winds in its wake for an hour or two. No additional storm
development is expected tonight, allowing VFR conditions and light
winds to prevail.
Storms tomorrow will develop around 18Z and favor the high terrain
along and west of the central mountain chain. Storms will slowly
drift south off the mountains and create gusty outflow winds as
they do. Brief gusty outflow winds up to 40KT will be a threat at
all sites, with the highest confidence in central and western NM.
Similar to today, storm coverage and intensity will trend down
between 00Z and 06Z.
