areas of LLWS and mountain wave turbulence. These winds mix
down tomorrow and will bring more widespread 35 to 40 mph winds
with higher gusts possible near showers through the afternoon.

.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.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SUNDAY/...

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.
