VFR through the TAF period. Currently seeing a brief push of
westerly winds, but drainage flow should establish overnight and
continue into Wednesday morning. Main forecast challenge will come
Wednesday afternoon and evening, with guidance developing a
Denver cyclone near the terminals. Expect a wind shift to the
west/northwest at some point during the later afternoon hours but
confidence on that timing is low.

Salt Lake City Aviation Discussion
Issued at 0943 UTC Wednesday, May 22, 2024
.AVIATION...KSLC...Gradual increase in VFR cloud cover ahead of
approaching system. Additionally, will see southerly winds increase
after sunrise, becoming gusty by mid morning on into the afternoon
hours. Some guidance sources suggest potential for periods of
westerly crosswinds mid afternoon Wednesday, which will be something
to keep an eye on. Otherwise, should see a somewhat dry cold frontal
passage (shower chances ~20-30%) ~03-05Z early Thursday, with a
period of gusty NW winds following frontal passage. Slightly lighter
NW winds then favored to persist on through Thursday morning.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...At southern terminals, TAF
period features clear to mostly clear skies, and largely diurnally
normal winds with some modestly gusty conditions expected through
the day Wednesday. At northern terminals, an approaching system will
result in a gradual increase in VFR cloud cover through the period.
Most terminals will see a favored south to west component to wind
directions through the day, with many locations seeing gusts during
the day in the 20kt to 35kt range or so (higher chances at more
exposed and typically gusty terminals). By late Wednesday evening, a
cold front will drop southward resulting in a flip to north-
northwesterly winds, including a period of gusty conditions
following the front. Widespread precipitation not expected, but
scattered showers likely to accompany the front, with highest
chances from N UT into SW WY.

West of the Divide...KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS Terminals
One weather system exits tonight as another moves in tomorrow.
Prevailing VFR conditions will continue tonight before the next
system moves into the area. Then, rain showers will move into
western Wyoming late Wednesday morning. This will impact KJAC, but
conditions will predominantly remain VFR even as showers pass
through. Steadier rain is possible (60%) at KJAC Wednesday evening
after 01Z, so reductions in vis to MVFR are possible (40%). Isolated
thunderstorms will develop Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday
evening, mainly in the mountains around KJAC. Not enough confidence
in thunderstorm coverage for VCTS at KJAC at this time.
Other terminals will remain dry, although there is a 20-30% chance
of rain at KBPI/KPNA Wednesday evening. Wind will increase at all
terminals late Wednesday morning from the southwest, with gusts of
20-30 knots at all terminals through the afternoon hours. A wind
shift from the northwest will occur late Wednesday evening.
Mountaintop obscuration will begin around KJAC late Wednesday
morning and continue through the TAF period.
East of the Divide...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL Terminals
One weather system exits tonight as another moves in tomorrow.
Prevailing VFR conditions will persist over the next 24 hours, but
wind will increase for all terminals late Wednesday morning. Wind
will be southwesterly sustained in the teens, gusting 20-30 knots
from late Wednesday morning through Wednesday afternoon. A shift to
northwesterly wind is likely (70%) Wednesday evening for
KWRL/KRIW/KLND.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

A dry backdoor cold front currently in northeast NM will push
through KTCC and KLVS around 06 to 07Z and through KROW around
12Z. There could be some low clouds and MVFR ceilings near Raton
Pass, but confidence in this occurring is low. North to northeast
winds on the leading edge of the backdoor front will be stronger
with gusts of up to 35 kts possible. It will also impact KSAF and
KABQ providing a SE and E wind respectively around sunrise
Wednesday. The east wind at KABQ will light to moderate with gusts
of up to 30 kts possible, just below Airport Weather Warning
criteria. Westerly flow aloft mixing down to the surface will wash
out the backdoor front first across central areas late morning
followed by the eastern highlands midday and the eastern plains
come the mid to late afternoon. West to southwest winds in the
afternoon will be breezy across west central areas including KGUP
and the northeast highlands including KLVS with gusts of up to 30
kts possible. Winds drop off shortly after sunset.
