Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion Issued at 2345 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday/... Issued at 545 PM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 Northeast winds will continue to turn counter-clockwise and end up a northerly direction around 02Z at DEN. Winds back to the northwest prior to becoming light and variable. After 06Z, typical south- southwest drainage winds will prevail. Skies to remain mostly clear with few to scattered high-based cumulus clouds around 10,000 feet. High based showers are expected to pass south of DEN, but within 10 miles for VCSH. Slight chance outflow winds bring a wind shift to the southwest. For Monday, the 18Z models show low clouds forming over parts of northeast Colorado 09-12Z and then spreading southwestward. Added SCT010 to the TAFs with a tempo for broken 1000 feet (BKN010) at DEN and BJC. These low clouds dissipate 15-17Z. There`s a good amount of uncertainty regarding the wind direction in the 16-22Z time frame. Like today, most models show gusty southwest winds at DEN. However, the strong southwest winds have stayed well south of DEN. Will have easterly winds for late Monday morning and early afternoon (17-21Z). Eventually expect stronger south-southwest winds to arrive at DEN mid afternoon, around 21Z.

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 162320Z 1700/1724 25015G26KT P6SM FEW150 FEW200 FM170300 21007KT P6SM FEW150 SCT200 FM171500 24012G24KT P6SM SCT120 BKN150 FM171800 25023G34KT P6SM SCT060 BKN100= METAR KEVW 162353Z AUTO 25020G27KT 10SM CLR 22/01 A2990 RMK AO2 PK WND 24030/2320 SLP040 T02220006 10233 20178 56013 METAR KEVW 162253Z AUTO 24018G25KT 10SM CLR 23/02 A2991 RMK AO2 PK WND 24028/2236 SLP041 T02330017 METAR KEVW 162153Z AUTO 25021G30KT 10SM CLR 23/01 A2992 RMK AO2 PK WND 25032/2103 SLP044 T02330011 KRKS 162329Z 1700/1724 27012G20KT P6SM FEW090 SCT150 FM170300 VRB05KT P6SM BKN150 FM171500 23010KT P6SM BKN150 FM171800 25014G25KT P6SM BKN100 FM172100 25025G35KT P6SM BKN100 METAR KRKS 162354Z AUTO 30009KT 10SM CLR 24/M01 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP026 T02391006 10261 20194 56019 METAR KRKS 162254Z AUTO 32008G18KT 10SM CLR 26/00 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP029 T02560000 METAR KRKS 162154Z AUTO 27011KT 10SM CLR 25/M01 A2989 RMK AO2 SLP035 T02501006 KRWL 162320Z 1700/1724 24018G28KT P6SM SCT120 FM170200 32009KT P6SM BKN150 FM171200 12008KT P6SM BKN150 FM171500 22030G40KT P6SM BKN100 METAR KRWL 162353Z AUTO 22010G19KT 10SM CLR 25/M03 A2984 RMK AO2 PK WND 23026/2316 SLP008 T02501028 10278 20228 58020 METAR KRWL 162253Z AUTO 24016G25KT 10SM CLR 27/M03 A2986 RMK AO2 PK WND 22029/2239 SLP012 T02721028 METAR KRWL 162153Z AUTO 23014G22KT 10SM FEW110 27/M02 A2990 RMK AO2 PK WND 18026/2130 WSHFT 2124 SLP021 T02671017 KLAR 162320Z 1700/1724 15022G33KT P6SM SCT120 FM170200 13013G23KT P6SM SCT120 FM170500 13010KT P6SM SCT005 BKN120 FM171200 16015G25KT P6SM SCT120 FM171800 19025G35KT P6SM BKN080 METAR KLAR 162353Z AUTO 14021G29KT 10SM CLR 23/06 A2990 RMK AO2 PK WND 14029/2353 SLP018 T02330056 10317 20233 53000 METAR KLAR 162253Z AUTO 15020G29KT 10SM CLR 25/04 A2989 RMK AO2 PK WND 24033/2159 WSHFT 2217 SLP010 T02500044 SPECI KLAR 162237Z AUTO 14019G28KT 10SM CLR 26/04 A2989 RMK AO2 PK WND 24033/2159 WSHFT 2217 T02560044 KCYS 162320Z 1700/1724 12012G22KT P6SM SCT070 FM170200 10010KT P6SM SCT070 FM170900 07008KT P6SM BKN012 FM171300 07008KT P6SM BKN025 FM171500 16012KT P6SM SCT025 FM171800 17015G25KT P6SM SCT050 METAR KCYS 162353Z 10010G18KT 10SM CLR 23/08 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP032 T02330078 10250 20206 56008 METAR KCYS 162253Z 08009KT 10SM CLR 23/07 A2987 RMK AO2 SLP035 T02330067 METAR KCYS 162153Z 12011G21KT 10SM CLR 24/08 A2987 RMK AO2 SLP033 T02390083 Riverton (KRIW) 06/17/24 00:17 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 25000 FT MSL...231/059 24000 FT MSL...232/058 22000 FT MSL...232/054 20000 FT MSL...231/053 19000 FT MSL...230/053 18000 FT MSL...230/051 17000 FT MSL...230/048 16000 FT MSL...229/046 15000 FT MSL...232/042 14000 FT MSL...236/040 12000 FT MSL...255/030 8100 FT MSL...293/005 8000 FT MSL...324/006 7300 FT MSL...266/006 7000 FT MSL...280/010 6700 FT MSL...257/007 6200 FT MSL...322/008 6000 FT MSL...320/009 5900 FT MSL...325/008 Cheyenne (KCYS) 06/17/24 00:18 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 28000 FT MSL...248/040 27000 FT MSL...240/044 26000 FT MSL...241/044 25000 FT MSL...241/043 24000 FT MSL...238/044 23000 FT MSL...234/045 22000 FT MSL...233/043 21000 FT MSL...242/036 20000 FT MSL...225/041 19000 FT MSL...223/042 18000 FT MSL...244/036 17000 FT MSL...252/039 16000 FT MSL...224/043 15000 FT MSL...249/033 13000 FT MSL...256/029 12000 FT MSL...194/025 11700 FT MSL...206/016 11000 FT MSL...188/024 10500 FT MSL...188/018 10000 FT MSL...164/018 9500 FT MSL...153/015 9000 FT MSL...147/018 8700 FT MSL...145/017 8000 FT MSL...141/018 8000 FT MSL...136/019 7400 FT MSL...132/018 7000 FT MSL...112/016 6800 FT MSL...106/015 6600 FT MSL...102/014 Riverton Aviation Discussion Issued at 2200 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/...

Cloud cover will increase Monday morning the period as a cold front approaches the region. Ahead of this cold front, southwest winds will also begin to increase. The cold front will begin to move into the west by around 18Z Monday, with rain showers and MVFR conditions expected to occur at KJAC around 18Z. KJAC may see IFR conditions (30% chance) by later in the afternoon. KCOD may also see rain showers late in the period, but hi-res models are still seeing inconsistencies in timing of the heavier precipitation with the cold front. Have included MVFR with -RA at 20Z for now, but only 40% confidence in MFR conditions at this time. There is a less than 25% chance of showers at all other terminals. With the frontal passage, winds will also continue to increase. Gusts 30 to 40kts will be possible at KCPR and KRKS, as well as 20% chance of gusts exceeding 30kts at KBPI, KPNA, KLND, and KRIW through the afternoon. Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence forecasts.

Issued at 628 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 VFR conditions early in the period will degrade at area terminals due to multiple aviation concerns. The first and primary concern will be the threat for strong convection late tonight. Ongoing storms in far southwest Nebraska should track east-northeast along a stalled frontal boundary. This will keep most if not all activity initially south of LBF. Later tonight, more scattered thunderstorms will develop across the western Sandhills and track east-northeast. This activity will have greater potential for impacting both LBF and VTN. Have covered LBF with a PROB30 for now due to uncertainty with southward extent but have a prevailing mention at VTN. Behind quickly departing storms, lowering CIGS will introduce MVFR and even IFR criteria across our northern zones. Have VTN falling to IFR around sunrise Monday, though can`t rule out brief periods of LIFR as well. These lower ceilings should remain north of LBF where skies should clear late in the period. * * * * * Kansas * * * * * KGLD 162334Z 1700/1724 17014G23KT P6SM SKC FM170200 17020G30KT P6SM FEW100 WS010/16045KT FM170500 18025G35KT P6SM FEW250 WS010/18055KT METAR KGLD 162353Z AUTO 17016G26KT 10SM CLR 37/11 A2965 RMK AO2 PK WND 13028/2338 SLP981 T03670106 10383 20344 56013 $ METAR KGLD 162253Z AUTO 17016G24KT 10SM CLR 38/10 A2966 RMK AO2 SLP983 T03780100 $ METAR KGLD 162153Z AUTO 15014G20KT 10SM CLR 36/12 A2967 RMK AO2 SLP991 T03610117 $ KGCK 162320Z 1700/1724 19020G30KT P6SM SCT200 METAR KGCK 162354Z 17018G29KT 10SM CLR 34/14 A2966 RMK AO2 PK WND 18029/2321 SLP004 T03390144 10367 20328 56008 METAR KGCK 162254Z 18018G28KT 10SM SCT100 34/14 A2967 RMK AO2 PK WND 18032/2242 SLP005 TCU NWW T03440144 METAR KGCK 162154Z 19023G31KT 10SM CLR 37/14 A2968 RMK AO2 PK WND 19032/2139 SLP006 T03670144 METAR KLBL 162356Z AUTO 17022G27KT 10SM CLR 34/17 A2970 RMK AO2 PK WND 18028/2324 SLP016 6//// T03390167 10367 20333 56009 PNO $ METAR KLBL 162256Z AUTO 17023G28KT 10SM CLR 34/16 A2971 RMK AO2 PK WND 19029/2157 SLP019 T03390161 PNO $ METAR KLBL 162156Z AUTO 19020G28KT 10SM CLR 36/17 A2971 RMK AO2 PK WND 21029/2122 SLP019 T03560167 PNO $ METAR KEHA 170015Z AUTO 17025G32KT 10SM CLR 34/17 A2972 RMK AO2 T03350170 METAR KEHA 162355Z AUTO 18025G30KT 10SM CLR 34/17 A2972 RMK AO2 T03410174 10361 20313 403610205 METAR KEHA 162335Z AUTO 17027G33KT 10SM CLR 34/17 A2972 RMK AO2 T03450172 Goodland (KGLD) 06/17/24 00:21 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 14000 FT MSL...219/020 13000 FT MSL...213/020 12600 FT MSL...207/016 12000 FT MSL...197/020 11000 FT MSL...184/022 10700 FT MSL...183/024 10000 FT MSL...177/025 9200 FT MSL...171/026 9000 FT MSL...169/027 8000 FT MSL...164/028 8000 FT MSL...164/028 7000 FT MSL...162/030 6900 FT MSL...162/030 6100 FT MSL...159/031 6000 FT MSL...158/030 5300 FT MSL...158/030 5000 FT MSL...159/030 4700 FT MSL...157/030 4200 FT MSL...153/026 4000 FT MSL...154/025 4000 FT MSL...155/025 Dodge City (KDDC) 06/17/24 00:22 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 9000 FT MSL...200/026 8100 FT MSL...198/028 8000 FT MSL...192/032 7000 FT MSL...187/031 6900 FT MSL...187/031 6000 FT MSL...182/031 5900 FT MSL...182/031 5100 FT MSL...178/030 5000 FT MSL...178/030 4300 FT MSL...174/029 4000 FT MSL...173/029 3700 FT MSL...170/027 3200 FT MSL...174/028 3000 FT MSL...173/026 3000 FT MSL...173/026 Goodland Aviation Discussion Issued at 2045 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/...

(00Z TAFS) Issued at 513 PM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 VFR conditions will continue to prevail through the TAF period. There are a couple isolated storms currently in the eastern plains and few more storms are possible through the early evening, but coverage will remain very isolated and impacts to any terminals is low. Breezy southwest winds of 10-20KT are commonplace around the region and it will remain that way through sunset. Winds decrease after sunset in most areas, but southerly flow will increase across the eastern plains generally east of a line extending from KROW to KRTN where gusts to 35KT are possible from 04Z to 12Z. Gusty southwest winds will prevail across the state late tomorrow morning through the evening, with the strongest winds focusing over the northeastern and west-central portions of the state. Once again, there is a low chance of an isolated storm near the TX border tomorrow afternoon. * * * * * Winds and Temperatures Aloft Forecasts * * * * * DATA BASED ON 161200Z VALID 161800Z FOR USE 1700-2100Z.
