Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion
Issued at 0949 UTC Thursday, July 27, 2017
.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night)
Issued at 349 AM MDT Thu Jul 27 2017
Lower ceilings have pretty much eroded from the Denver area TAF
sites with south/southwesterly downslope off the Palmer Divide.
Still a low threat of fog through 14Z, but at this time thinking
mainly light fog as long as southerly downslope surface winds hold.
Winds should become more east/southeast by 18-20Z and increase to
12-16 knots through 21Z. Chance of thunderstorms developing after
21Z, and stronger storms will be capable of producing brief IFR
visibility and MVFR ceilings. Main threat for thunderstorms
is between 22Z and 03Z. Then winds returning to normal
south/southwest overnight with VFR conditions likely prevailing.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday morning)
Issued at 341 AM MDT Thu Jul 27 2017
Area of rain should be east of the KCOS and KPUB terminals by 12z
TAF issuance time. VFR cigs may drop into the MVFR category this
morning as upslope stratus develops along the I-25 corridor. Stratus
will break around 18z for both terminals...with another round of
thunderstorms developing across the mountains. With stable air over
the plains think that chances of VCTS at KCOS and KPUB are extremely
small as any storms should weaken quickly as they move into the I-25
corridor. Will maintain an VCSH for now after 23z. MVFR stratus
will likely reform after 03-04z for both KCOS and KPUB due to light
upslope flow into the overnight hours.
KALS will remain in a more unstable airmass today with VFR cigs
gradually decreasing this morning. Storms will refire over the
mountains this afternoon, then move into the valley after 20z. Brief
VFR Cigs/Vis will be possible with storms until 02z with VCSH
lingering until 06z. -KT

Some patchy fog will likely form vicinity KJAC until around 14z.
An upper low will shear across northern Wyoming Thursday evening.
Widely scattered thunderstorms will develop primarily vicinity and
north of a KJAC-KCPR line with activity more isolated south of this
line, primarily from 21z Thursday until 03z Friday. A few
marginally severe thunderstorms with hail and wind gusts near 40
knots will be possible in the vicinity and east of Interstate 25, or
KBYG-KCPR. TSRA/SHRA activity should become isolated across the
region after 03z Friday.

A few showers linger across east-central Wyoming at this hour
which should persist for another hour or two as a shortwave moves
across Wyoming. Stratus has already developed across the plains
and some of the higher valleys out west, although cigs are still
VFR at this time. Do think those will become IFR overnight for the
plains terminals as temps cool within this moist upslope
environment. Stratus is expected to burnoff through the late
morning with afternoon/evening showers and thunderstorms possible.

MVFR conditions are expected at MCK and GLD for the first few
hours of the TAF this morning as low clouds dissipate as the sun
increases in elevation across the region. Between 14Z-16Z VFR
conditions will return with additional mid level clouds also
dissipating through the day with only FEW to SCT high clouds after
20Z as high pressure moves into the region. Light northeast winds
will also turn to the east southeast through the day and into the
early evening where they will remain through the overnight hours
as the return flow begins to set up around the surface high.

Nocturnal convective complex from near GCK to near LBL will

will meander around GCK, LBL and DDC through 15z. Widespread
IFR/MVFR stratus cigs at 12z will only slowly lift/erode through
the morning and midday hours, as very moist NEly surface winds
keep the boundary layer near saturation. Expecting scattered
thunderstorms to redevelop during the 18z Thu through 00z Fri
timeframe, but confidence in exactly where is low. HRRR solutions
suggest the best storm coverage from near LBL to near/south of
DDC, and included VCTS/CB in the those TAFs. Confident that HYS
will remain dry through this TAF cycle, and kept the HYS TAF dry.
Outside of convection, light NE surface winds will prevail, at 10
kts or less.

12Z TAF Cycle
Showers and thunderstorms, some with very heavy rainfall, will
affect mainly the Dalhart and Amarillo TAF sites through 12Z
Friday. However, the Guymon TAF site should be impacted by showers
and thunderstorms between 13Z and 19Z today with low confidence on
timing after 19Z today. Therefore, will leave out any mention of
showers and thunderstorms at the Guymon TAF site past 19Z today
for now. Mainly VFR ceilings will prevail through 12Z Friday,
however MVFR ceilings can be expected in and near any showers and
thunderstorms through 12Z Friday. Light north to northeast and
east winds at all three TAF sites 5 to 15 knots or less with winds
strong and erratic in and near thunderstorms.
