The main concern over the next 24 hours will mainly be wind
related. Stronger winds aloft will create areas of LLWS
overnight which will eventually mix down to the surface as gusts
of 25 to 40 mph through tomorrow evening. Outflow winds near
showers across northwest Colorado could also produce some
stronger gusts. Otherwise VFR should prevail with low
probability of ILS at KHDN tomorrow afternoon near showers.

.AVIATION...KSLC...Winds will range from southwest to northwest into
the evening. Clouds will increase, with cold front building in
around 04Z or 05Z. The boundary will transition winds to the
northwest. Gusts around 25 knots are likely for a few hours once the
front pushes through. Isolated showers near the front could bring
gusty, erratic outflow winds. Northwest winds will prevail through
the day with clouds decreasing.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Southwest winds will decrease
through the evening. A cold front will track into northern Utah and
southwest Wyoming, bringing broken to overcast ceilings with
isolated showers through around 09Z. Showers could bring gusty,
erratic outflow winds. Winds will transition to northwest with the
boundary, with gusts around 25 knots for a few hours behind it. The
front will track across southern Utah from roughly 09-12Z. Mostly
clear, dry conditions are likely throughout southern Utah, but
northwest winds will gust around 25 knots.

Another weather system continues to push into the region. Gusty
westerly winds will begin to decrease towards sunset. Winds will
continue to decrease and even become light and variable overnight
for most terminals. However, winds increase again starting by 10-12Z
and especially by 15-16Z Friday morning. Gusts 30 to even 40 kts
will be common for most terminals by 18Z Friday.
Precipitation chances will generally remain negligible to start the
period across the region, with the exception of KJAC, where -SHRA
will prevail through much of the evening (50% chance). Showers are
expected to become a steady light rain by around 02Z (70% chance).
KCOD will be the next terminal to see mentionable precip chances
(40% chance) with rain showers moving in after 06Z tonight and
prevailing through the rest of the period. KPNA may also see
some showers (30% chance) overnight. Another round of showers is
possible at KJAC by mid-morning Thursday, and likely (60%
chance) will be in the form of snow, rather than rain, with
temps dropping to freezing overnight. With any of these periods
of showers, expect prevailing VFR to occasional MVFR, degrading
to IFR during heavier rain showers and/or any snow showers.
Additional rain shower chances will spread across northern areas
east of the divide late in the period.
Another change to mention is a strong northerly push of wind
into the Bighorn Basin after 18Z/Thu which will move into
central WY (KRIW/KCPR) around 00Z/Fri, which should increase
precipitation chances Thursday evening and bring lower
ceilings.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

VFR conditions are expected to prevail through tomorrow evening
across western and north central Nebraska. The exception will be
late tomorrow afternoon, as scattered thunderstorm development
is expected near the HWY 83 corridor. Brief MVFR
ceiling/visibilities are possible inside thunderstorms along
with gusty, erratic winds. Confidence in timing and placement of
thunderstorms remain too low for inclusion at both KLBF and KVTN
for now, though this may be needed in future issuances.
Strong southerly LLWS is expected to develop overnight for all
area terminals, as a low level jet strengthens across western
Nebraska. Winds remain southerly through the valid period,
becoming gusty tonight and tomorrow, with gusts of 20 to 30kts
anticipated.

KGLD...VFR conditions are expected through the period. A
southerly wind occasionally gusting 20-25kts is anticipated
from taf issuance through much of the afternoon Thursday before
veering to the southwest at similar speeds after about 23z.
KMCK...VFR conditions are expected through the period. A
southeast wind under 10kts at taf issuance will continue through
the night. On Thursday, southerly winds increase with gusts up
to 25, maybe 30kts. There is a possibility of showers and
thunderstorms impacting the terminal after 22z along a
forecasted dry line. The placement of the dryline may change and
thus the timing and location of anticipated convection so
adjustments may be needed in later forecasts.

South to southeast winds at 10 knots or less will begin to
gradually increase between midnight and 12z thursday as surface
pressures begin to fall along the lee of the Rockies and an
area of high pressure at the surface moves east towards to Mid
Mississippi Valley. These southerly winds will continue to
increase early Thursday morning and by 18z the winds will be
around 20 knots with a few higher gusts possible as stronger
winds in the boundary layer mixes down to the surface. These
increasing south to southeast winds overnight and early Thursday will
draw higher dewpoints back into portions of southwest Kansas
which will result in an increase of low ceilings in the 1000ft
and 2000ft AGL layer between 12z and 15z Thursday based on the
latest BUFR soundings and HREF cloud ceiling probabilities,
mainly in the Liberal and Dodge City areas. The chance for
ceilings to be less 2000ft AGL at these two locations range from
50-70% and the chance for ceilings <1000ft AGL is less than
15%. Patchy fog will also be possible at these two locations
early Thursday morning also. These low clouds and patchy fog
will give way to clearing skies as the stronger winds in the
boundary layer begin to mix down to the surface.

Conditions should remain generally VFR at all sites, although some
low cigs and/or fog may make it as far west as KAMA. Winds will
veer to more southerly and eventually southwesterly tomorrow at
10-20 kts, with higher gusts up to 30 kts during the afternoon
hours. Again, some low clouds may move in, but confidence in
impactful low cigs reaching any given terminal remains too low to
include in the TAFs at this time.

VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the TAF period. A
few showers and associated erratic and gusty winds are possible
from the northern mtns eastward to the TX border through sunset,
but otherwise dry conditions will prevail the next 24hr as well.
Gusty SW to W winds will taper off within the next couple hours
across the region. There is a very low chance (<10%) that low
clouds less than 3,000 ft develop over the Caprock in eastern NM
for a few hours tonight before westerly winds scour out the
shallow moisture. Breezy west winds develop again late morning
tomorrow and will likely be a tad stronger than today`s winds. The
strongest winds will be focused over the northern mtns and
northeast plains where gusts to 40kts are possible early afternoon
through the evening.
