Winds have gone more easterly than anticipated at DEN tonight, we
are expecting a more southerly component to return in the next few
hours. Early tomorrow afternoon (~19Z), southwest winds are
likely with gusts up to 30 mph, then after roughly 21Z some
passing showers are likely over all airports. These are expected
to be high based showers that could produce some gusty and erratic
outflows up to 40 mph.

.AVIATION...KSLC...VFR conditions will persist for the KSLC
terminal through the period. Winds will be variable this afternoon
as a northerly lake breeze is countered by southerly outflow from
showers south of the terminal. A predominant southerly flow
establishes this evening/overnight, but VCSH could create more
brief variability in the winds. Expect CIGs to develop near
ridgetop creating some mountain obscuration overnight.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR conditions will persist
for most terminals this evening and overnight. High based showers
across central Utah will create some gusty outflow leading to
variable winds with a mean southerly flow, otherwise. CIGs lower
overnight with showers becoming more numerous across central Utah
with intermittent mountain obscuration. Winds predominantly remain
southerly with mostly dry conditions across southern Utah.

Prevailing VFR conditions through about the first half of the
period. Two rounds of showers move through the area over the next 24
hours. The first occurs at the start of the period, with most likely
impacts at KRKS through about 15Z. Models have shifted the best
precipitation chances southward, so KRKS could see very little
precipitation. Have kept prevailing rain in the TAF for now, but
confidence is lower. KCPR has about a 10% chance to see a shower.
The next round comes Saturday late afternoon through the evening.
Showers and thunderstorms are possible with this push of moisture.
High-resolution models have a slightly better grasp on starting
times, but struggle with the speed of the system and how long
precipitation chances linger into the evening and early night. Have
attempted to put average start and end times in the TAFs but would
not be surprised to see timings adjust a few hours in either
direction for future issuances.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

Westerly flow aloft will become southwest overnight, while a
weather disturbance and increased moisture bring scattered
showers and thunderstorms Saturday afternoon and evening.
Wyoming TAFS...Ceilings will lower from 11000 to 15000 feet
overnight, to 4000 to 8000 feet on Saturday. Showers will be in
the vicinity of the terminals from 15Z to 00Z. Winds will gust
to 25 knots from 15Z to 00Z.
Nebraska TAFS...Mostly clear skies will become broken clouds
around 12000 feet after sunrise, then lower to 6000 to
10000 feet Saturday evening. Showers will be in the vicinity of
the terminals after 00Z, except at Chadron.

Low level wind shear will be developing before daybreak as a low
level jet becomes established across central Nebraska.
Otherwise, expect VFR conditions with light winds at the
surface through daybreak. There may be a few sprinkles around
from some mid clouds but probabilities are quite low so will
maintain dry conditions and amend if necessary. Winds will
become gusty as diurnal heating mixes the boundary layer
Saturday morning with gusts to 30kt at KLBF but a bit lower at
KVTN. Expect widely scattered showers and thunderstorms to
develop late in the day and will use VCTS for a couple of hours
toward 00Z before returning to dry VFR conditions by the end of
the valid period.

VFR flying conditions this TAF cycle for all terminals. Current
light and variable winds will begin to increase shortly after
sunrise Saturday morning, reaching the 18-23 kt range with gusts
of 28-33 kts by mid-morning. These winds will continue through
00Z when a gradual weakening trend will occur owing to the loss
of boundary layer mixing. Towards the end of the period, winds
will begin to veer to southwest to westerly as a cold front
approaches southwest KS.

VFR conditions are forecast at all sites throughout the period.
Winds currently out of the south will increase out of the
southwest tomorrow, sustained at 20-25 kts, gusting around 35-40
kts. Some marginal LLWS still can`t be ruled out at KDHT tonight,
but continue to lack confidence for including mentions at this
time.

The jetstream will move over NM Saturday morning, then linger
overhead through the day, with strong winds areawide. Winds will
begin gusting out of the southwest in the morning, then the wind
direction will shift out of the west during the afternoon and
evening as a Pacific cold front crosses from the west. Vigorous
thermals will develop over eastern areas, where high temperatures
will climb as much as 8 degrees above 1991-2020 averages. The
Indios Fire near Gallinas Peak and the Blue 2 Fire in the
northern Sacramento Mountains are expected to billow with well-
developed smoke plumes stretching toward the northeast Saturday
afternoon, then toward the east Saturday evening. The Blue Fire`s
plume will probably expand rapidly during mid to late morning, and
continue into the late night hours near and southwest of the fire;
including over KSRR where an MVFR ceiling is likely late Saturday
night with a risk of visibility reduction as well. You may view
