VFR conditions through the TAF period. Winds have held on to a
gusty westerly component behind the cold front for DEN and BJC
while APA has maintained a lighter NNW flow. Winds will likely
decrease in magnitude as a more SW drainage sets in. Exact timing
on when this happens is still uncertain as a few passing
boundaries are aiding in keeping the westerly component in place.
Tomorrow should bring SE winds to all airports as an anticyclone
sets up over the plains. APA and DEN should stay SE through the
day with less uncertainty for BJC as there is a chance some
westerly winds could make it in.

Behind the front, northwesterly winds will gust 20-30 knots for
an hour or so before slowly weakening. Skies will rapidly clear
behind the front, as is already being seen at terminals in
eastern Utah and northwestern Colorado. VFR to MVFR conditions
will be likely along the front, with VFR conditions expected to
prevail through the next 24 hours. Light winds tonight will be
northerly before transitioning to more variable and terrain
driven patterns. Afternoon gusts up to 25 knots will return for
most terminals tomorrow.

.AVIATION...KSLC...Increasing mid and high VFR clouds will be
common this morning along with southerly winds. Models suggest a
brief wind shift to the SW between 19Z-20Z before shifting to the
more typical NW between 20Z and 21Z. Yesterday`s cold front will
move back north this afternoon, and showers associated with it are
expected to develop towards 00Z, with occasional showers persisting
through Saturday. Model consensus suggests these showers will force
an earlier than usual wind shift to the S, with gusty S winds
continuing through much of the night Friday night. Better than a 90%
chance for VFR conditions through 09Z Saturday morning, but lower
CIG trends emerge after 09Z Saturday morning with showers. Chances
for MVFR approach 40% after 12Z Saturday.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Increasing mid and high VFR
clouds will be common this morning as yesterday`s cold front moves
back north this afternoon, and showers associated with it are
expected to develop towards 00Z, with occasional showers persisting
through Saturday. Most shower activity will be across central and NE
Utah, but isolated showers possible as far north as near the Idaho
border and as far south as the southern mountains. Gusty S-SW winds
will develop south of the warm front across southern Utah this

VFR conditions expected to prevail through the period, with
decreasing cloud cover and winds tonight. Winds pick back up Friday,
with gusts 20 to 25 knots possible for some sites in the
afternoon and evening. Precipitation chances begin moving into
the southern part of Wyoming towards the end of the TAF period,
with KRKS the first to be impacted. Increasing clouds occur for
all sites ahead of this.
At KJAC, there is some uncertainty with how much clouds clear
tonight. Have kept scattered mid-level clouds in for now. Some
guidance is showing the northerly wind form overnight, while other
models keep a southwest flow in. Have kept southwest flow in the TAF
for now, but may need to change should a northerly wind develop. In
either case, southwest flow develops for Friday. An occasional gust
around 15 to 20 knots is possible in the afternoon.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

The main impact to aircraft operations will be gusty west to
northwest winds that will be increasing through the predawn
hours and continue into the afternoon once diurnal heating mixes
the boundary layer. Will indicate gusts around 30kt at KLBF but
approaching 40kt at KVTN. Winds start to relax later in the
afternoon and will become light after sunset toward the end of
the valid period.
Radar shows some lingering showers moving through KVTN so will
include an early TEMPO but otherwise a dry TAF period for
central and western Nebraska. While conditions will generally be
VFR, there will be a couple of hour with MVFR CIGS at KVTN this
morning.
Note: Due to a communications issue observations from the ASOS at
KVTN are not being distributed. However the ASOS continues to
function and is available by dialing in directly on the voice
line.

VFR conditions are anticipated through this period. The main
feature of concern will be a cold front that`s approaching the
Panhandles tonight. Have attempted to time it out based on its
current pace for each terminal, but slight adjustments may need to
be made. Expect gusty winds with the frontal passage as well as behind
it. Gusts above 35 kts will be possible at KAMA and KGUY. Winds
gradually weaken through the day.

A backdoor front will shift winds out of the northeast as it
slides through northeast and east central areas during the late
night and early morning hours. The front is not forecast to reach
as far south as Roswell, but it probably will move through the
Clovis and Portales area around 6 AM MDT. South and southwest
winds will become gusty again on Friday afternoon, but the flow
aloft will be a little weaker, so speeds shouldn`t be quite as
strong as those clocked Thursday. Active smoke plumes will emanate
from the northwest, west central, and south central mountains, as
well as Arizona, on Friday. View the HRRR Model`s forecast smoke
loop here: https://shorturl.at/GegLT.
