Issued at 1107 PM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Winds remain from the north and may stay in that general direction overnight. Once concern overnight will be the redevelopment of stratus around sunrise as an outflow boundary/weak front moves back into the area. Stratus could linger thru 16z before burning off. Next issue on Mon is where exactly the boundary will be by aftn. NAM has been handling this boundary much better than other models and keeps it around DIA much of the aftn. Thus, depending on its location, winds could stay easterly if it resides just to the south.

SE winds then persist, with an early switch back NW ~13Z-15Z Mon as a cold front gradually sinks through the region. Tightening gradient will result in increasingly gusty NW winds throughout the daytime, generally in the 25kt to 35kt range. Winds will gradually relax late Monday evening into the overnight hours, with NW direction favored to persist. Precipitation chances low (around 20%), but best chance noted from ~21z Mon to ~03Z Tue. Given high-based nature, any convection would be capable of further gusty and erratic outflow winds. .REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Winds expected to lighten up and largely follow a diurnally normal pattern overnight. From Mon morning on through the afternoon, a cold front will sink southward through N UT and SW WY terminals, reaching S UT terminals by later Mon evening. At northern terminals, NW winds become favored following frontal passage, and gusty conditions set in during the daytime hours (generally in the 25kt to 35kt range). Additionally, a low chance (around 20%) of high-based convection is noted at northern terminals during the afternoon. At southern terminals, gusty SW prefrontal winds develop during the day, with at least some potential noted for patchy smoke related haze to advect in from fires in the SW CONUS. Winds at southern terminals flip N to NW abruptly later Mon evening following frontal passage. * * * * * Wyoming * * * * * KEVW 170540Z 1706/1806 21007KT P6SM FEW150 SCT200 FM171500 24012G24KT P6SM SCT120 BKN150 FM171800 25023G34KT P6SM SCT060 BKN100 FM180100 29020G30KT P6SM VCSH BKN050 OVC100 FM180500 28013KT P6SM FEW050= METAR KEVW 170653Z AUTO 09004KT 10SM CLR 13/01 A2982 RMK AO2 SLP007 T01330011 402330067 METAR KEVW 170553Z AUTO 32003KT 10SM CLR 16/01 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP013 T01560006 10222 20139 58012 METAR KEVW 170453Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 16/01 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP019 T01610006 KRKS 170520Z 1706/1806 VRB05KT P6SM BKN150 FM171600 23010KT P6SM BKN150 FM171800 25017G25KT P6SM SCT200 FM172100 25025G35KT P6SM BKN200 FM180200 29025G38KT P6SM BKN150 METAR KRKS 170654Z AUTO 34007KT 10SM FEW120 16/M03 A2982 RMK AO2 SLP008 T01611028 402610089 METAR KRKS 170554Z AUTO 34007KT 10SM BKN110 17/M03 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP021 60000 T01721028 10244 20172 50001 METAR KRKS 170454Z AUTO 33008KT 10SM FEW100 BKN120 18/M02 A2986 RMK AO2 RAB21E30 SLP028 P0000 T01781022 KRWL 170520Z 1706/1806 32011KT P6SM BKN150 FM171200 12008KT P6SM BKN150 FM171500 22030G40KT P6SM BKN100 FM180000 28025G35KT P6SM BKN080 METAR KRWL 170653Z AUTO 32008KT 10SM CLR 13/01 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP012 T01330011 402780100 METAR KRWL 170553Z AUTO 30009KT 10SM CLR 14/01 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP011 T01440011 10267 20128 53004 METAR KRWL 170453Z AUTO 29005KT 10SM CLR 16/01 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP007 T01610006 KLAR 170520Z 1706/1806 13018KT P6SM SCT005 BKN120 FM171200 16015G25KT P6SM SCT120 FM171800 19025G35KT P6SM BKN080 FM180000 20015KT P6SM BKN080 METAR KLAR 170653Z AUTO 15015G23KT 10SM CLR 15/11 A2982 RMK AO2 SLP965 T01500111 403170083 METAR KLAR 170553Z AUTO 15019KT 10SM CLR 16/09 A2984 RMK AO2 PK WND 14026/0531 SLP972 T01610094 10233 20161 58008 METAR KLAR 170453Z AUTO 15016G24KT 10SM CLR 17/09 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP982 T01720089 KCYS 170520Z 1706/1806 10012KT P6SM BKN035 FM170900 07008KT P6SM BKN007 FM171300 07008KT P6SM BKN015 FM171500 16012KT P6SM SCT025 FM171800 17015G25KT P6SM SCT050 FM180000 15013KT P6SM BKN050 METAR KCYS 170653Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 14/11 A2980 RMK AO2 SLP008 T01440111 402500111 METAR KCYS 170553Z AUTO 12009KT 10SM CLR 14/11 A2982 RMK AO2 SLP017 T01440111 10244 20144 58009 METAR KCYS 170453Z AUTO 11014KT 10SM BKN042 16/11 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP028 T01560106 Riverton (KRIW) 06/17/24 06:58 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 28000 FT MSL...226/061 26000 FT MSL...224/062 25000 FT MSL...224/059 24000 FT MSL...219/065 22000 FT MSL...219/064 20000 FT MSL...219/064 19000 FT MSL...221/060 18000 FT MSL...225/060 17000 FT MSL...219/049 16000 FT MSL...327/006 15000 FT MSL...245/048 14000 FT MSL...250/037 13000 FT MSL...248/027 12800 FT MSL...248/028 12000 FT MSL...243/024 11300 FT MSL...240/021 11000 FT MSL...241/020 10000 FT MSL...238/013 10000 FT MSL...217/013 9000 FT MSL...214/013 8000 FT MSL...091/015 7400 FT MSL...076/013 7000 FT MSL...070/017 6700 FT MSL...069/018 6200 FT MSL...067/024 6000 FT MSL...064/024 6000 FT MSL...065/025 Cheyenne (KCYS) 06/17/24 06:59 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 14000 FT MSL...257/037 13200 FT MSL...254/037 13000 FT MSL...252/038 12000 FT MSL...243/035 11700 FT MSL...245/038 11000 FT MSL...234/029 10500 FT MSL...228/027 10000 FT MSL...209/025 9500 FT MSL...199/026 9000 FT MSL...188/026 8600 FT MSL...184/024 8000 FT MSL...176/020 7900 FT MSL...157/019 7300 FT MSL...140/017 7000 FT MSL...127/013 6700 FT MSL...105/012 6500 FT MSL...119/009 Riverton Aviation Discussion Issued at 0420 UTC Monday, June 17, 2024 .AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/...

Issued at 1250 AM CDT Mon Jun 17 2024 Near term TAFs will be dealing with timing of ongoing thunderstorms as they move eastward across central Nebraska early tonight. With upstream convection expected to train over KVTN will go with IFR VSBY and prevailing +TSRA for the next 2 hours, and will also mention some hail. However there has not been much in the way of any indication for convective winds upstream from KVTN so will not mention any enhanced winds there but will monitor closely. Much of the convection moving east of Highway 61 is expected to slide just north of KLBF but will use a one hour TEMPO for thunder there to handle the passage. With a front draped across the region, expect IFR CIGs will remain just north of KLBF once the thunderstorms push off to the east, but KVTN will see IFR conditions with any improvement to MVFR holding off until after daybreak. Expect VFR at KLBF and MVFR at KVTN will persist thorugh the day on Monday until another round of thunderstorms develops toward 00Z and persist through the end of the valid period. Outside of convection, winds will generally be 10kt or less with low level wind shear persisting until a bit after daybreak. KLBF will see some gusts at or above 25kt develop later Monday morning as the low level wind field starts to enhance with an increase to at or above 30kt toward the latter portion of the valid period. KVTN will be on the cool side of the front, keeping gusts in check through low level wind shear will be prevalent. * * * * * Kansas * * * * * KGLD 170520Z 1706/1806 18025G35KT P6SM FEW250 WS010/18060KT FM171400 23015G25KT P6SM SCT150 FM172000 20015G35KT P6SM SCT120 METAR KGLD 170653Z AUTO 19032G52KT 10SM FEW050 26/14 A2963 RMK AO2 PK WND 21052/0653 LTG DSNT SE AND S SLP972 T02610139 403830189 $ METAR KGLD 170553Z AUTO 17023G34KT 10SM CLR 26/17 A2966 RMK AO2 PK WND 18034/0551 LTG DSNT S AND SW SLP983 T02610167 10367 20261 58000 $ METAR KGLD 170453Z AUTO 16024G32KT 10SM CLR 28/16 A2967 RMK AO2 PK WND 16036/0424 SLP987 T02780156 $ KGCK 170520Z 1706/1806 16016G26KT P6SM SKC WS020/18050KT FM171100 18023G33KT P6SM BKN210 FM172100 17033G44KT P6SM FEW250 METAR KGCK 170654Z AUTO 16019G37KT 10SM CLR 24/18 A2972 RMK AO2 PK WND 15037/0646 SLP021 T02440178 METAR KGCK 170554Z AUTO 16014G25KT 10SM CLR 25/16 A2973 RMK AO2 SLP023 T02500161 10350 20250 403670167 50012 METAR KGCK 170454Z AUTO 16013G24KT 10SM CLR 26/15 A2973 RMK AO2 PK WND 17028/0404 SLP025 T02610150 METAR KLBL 170656Z AUTO 17018G28KT 10SM CLR 25/21 A2976 RMK AO2 PK WND 16030/0636 SLP033 T02500206 PNO $ METAR KLBL 170556Z AUTO 16022KT 10SM CLR 26/19 A2976 RMK AO2 PK WND 16026/0544 SLP036 6//// T02610189 10339 20261 51011 PNO $ METAR KLBL 170456Z AUTO 17020G24KT 10SM CLR 27/18 A2976 RMK AO2 SLP036 T02720178 403670206 PNO $ METAR KEHA 170655Z AUTO 17023G30KT 10SM CLR 24/18 A2978 RMK AO2 T02420178 METAR KEHA 170635Z AUTO 17021G29KT 10SM CLR 24/18 A2978 RMK AO2 T02450176 METAR KEHA 170615Z AUTO 17021G27KT 10SM CLR 25/18 A2978 RMK AO2 T02460176 Goodland (KGLD) 06/17/24 07:01 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 40000 FT MSL...257/064 36700 FT MSL...205/038 35000 FT MSL...207/039 32100 FT MSL...200/036 30000 FT MSL...205/033 28000 FT MSL...208/030 27700 FT MSL...213/032 26000 FT MSL...210/029 25000 FT MSL...214/026 24300 FT MSL...219/026 24000 FT MSL...214/023 22000 FT MSL...226/025 21000 FT MSL...220/020 20000 FT MSL...209/020 19000 FT MSL...225/020 18000 FT MSL...219/014 17500 FT MSL...226/016 17000 FT MSL...223/018 16000 FT MSL...210/022 15000 FT MSL...205/019 14800 FT MSL...227/020 14000 FT MSL...211/026 13000 FT MSL...216/025 12600 FT MSL...202/016 12000 FT MSL...210/033 11000 FT MSL...210/036 10000 FT MSL...211/047 9200 FT MSL...215/054 9000 FT MSL...215/055 8000 FT MSL...212/062 8000 FT MSL...213/062 7000 FT MSL...205/065 6900 FT MSL...205/066 6200 FT MSL...197/057 6000 FT MSL...190/056 5400 FT MSL...184/048 5000 FT MSL...179/047 4800 FT MSL...176/042 4300 FT MSL...174/050 4100 FT MSL...171/045 4000 FT MSL...172/046 Dodge City (KDDC) 06/17/24 07:01 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 13900 FT MSL...116/004 10000 FT MSL...234/014 9600 FT MSL...178/010 9000 FT MSL...211/024 8100 FT MSL...210/028 8000 FT MSL...216/033 7000 FT MSL...212/033 6900 FT MSL...212/033 6000 FT MSL...190/049 5900 FT MSL...191/049 5100 FT MSL...183/056 5000 FT MSL...183/055 4300 FT MSL...178/052 4000 FT MSL...174/051 3800 FT MSL...171/047 3200 FT MSL...165/042 3000 FT MSL...165/037 3000 FT MSL...165/037 Goodland Aviation Discussion Issued at 0348 UTC Monday, June 17, 2024 .AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/...

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1237 AM CDT Mon Jun 17 2024 Conditions should remain VFR tonight, but some LLWS can`t be ruled out as a 40-50kt low level jet ramps up. Sustained winds of 15-20kts gusting around 25-30kts at times should limit this potential, but any drop in sfc winds would let LLWS materialize. Winds increase out of the south tomorrow with higher gusts approaching 40kts possible by the evening hours. A few scattered thunderstorms aren`t out of the question in the afternoon to evening hours, but confidence is very low right now.

Brief MVFR conditions in thunderstorms are possible near the TX border Monday afternoon and may impact KTCC. Return flow across the eastern plains currently is resulting in gusty southeast winds, which are forecast to diminish closer to sunrise. Stronger southwest winds are forecast to develop across much of the area Monday afternoon, with frequent gusts to between 30-35kts. * * * * * Winds and Temperatures Aloft Forecasts * * * * * DATA BASED ON 170000Z VALID 170600Z FOR USE 0500-0900Z.
