Issued at 1151 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024
VFR through the TAF period. Winds have settled on a
north/northeast direction and should gradually turn more easterly
as a Denver Cyclone develops. Eventually this cyclone should lift
to the east of the terminals, with a turn to more of a westerly
component later this evening. Drainage flow will be slow to
develop tonight. Another boundary is expected to setup somewhere
near or north of the terminals by late tomorrow morning. Difficult
to say where this will be, especially after today`s boundary was
significantly stronger than originally forecast. For now expect
gusty southwesterly winds to develop at APA/DEN close to 18z
Monday.

Issued at 1143 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024
VFR conditions and dry weather are expected this forecast
period. Lighter winds still in place at the terminals, but
expect this to quickly change as south to southwest winds/gusts
increase through the afternoon. Highest gusts will be in the mid
to upper 20 kt range at all sites this afternoon. PUB will
likely be light and variable or become more east southeast for a
couple of hours, before shifting to the south southwest by mid
afternoon.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 1133 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024
Expect VFR conditions through the TAF period with a few high
clouds invading late in the period from the northwest.
Southwest winds with gusts of 30 to 40 mph across much of the
region will run through the afternoon and early evening with
the strongest winds favoring northeast UT and northwest CO. Look
for winds to decouple from the flow aloft, becoming light
drainage winds at the surface. This creates a risk for Low-Level
Wind Sheer at the mountain TAF sites.

.AVIATION...KSLC...NW winds expected to linger into the evening,
flipping SE between ~05Z-07Z Mon. 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.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/...
Issued at 400 PM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024
Mostly VFR conditions will prevail through the forecast period.
Breezy winds will diminish by 02 to 04Z this evening. 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.

Man concern with this TAF issuance is the convection potential
this evening and overnight.
Latest satellite loop was showing mainly clear skies over the
majority of the TAF sites. Latest obs/radar data was showing the
frontal boundary that passed through earlier this morning was
now near the Palmer Divide in eastern Colorado. This front
packed quite a punch today with cooler air filtering into areas
east of the I-25 corridor. The short range models are showing an
abrupt wind shift to the east this afternoon, but based on the
latest trends we did delays this shift a couple of hours from
the previous forecast. Later this afternoon and early evening,
we should begin to see a decent surge of moisture back into
KCYS/KSNY by 02z or so with this moisture surge continuing into
the remainder of the Panhandle TAF sites by 06z. Depending on
the strength of this surge and any forcing that occurs we may
see a rogue thunderstorm or two. However, confidence in this
occurring remains rather low. Regardless, the cap will remain
in place with the potential for MVFR ceilings developing
overnight across most TAF sites along and east of the I-25
corridor.

VFR conditions are expected to prevail through early this
evening at the KLBF and KVTN terminals. Thunderstorms may
develop south and east of the KLBF terminal by 23Z. Have
included a PROB30 until 03Z. Overnight, increasing low stratus
will lead to MVFR/IFR CIGs across northern Nebraska, along with
increasing showers and thunderstorms. Timing and placement of
thunderstorms still remains somewhat uncertain, though
prevailing -TSRA included at KVTN from 06Z until 11Z. Winds
remain from the north and northeast with gusts to 20KT, before
shifting easterly into this evening, at around 10 to 20kts.

VFR conditions for both terminals during the forecast period at

they will affect either terminal but will monitor for later
updates.

VFR conditions will prevail in vicinity of all TAF sites through
late afternoon. Isolated thunderstorms will then be possible across
portions of southwest Kansas this evening, potentially affecting the
vicinity of KGCK, KDDC, and KLBL generally after 00-02Z. Otherwise,
expect widespread VFR to continue overnight. Southerly winds around
15 to 25kt with gusts up to 30kt are expected to persist throughout
much of the period as a strong lee side trough of low pressure
remains anchored in extreme southeast Colorado.

Surfaces winds will likely remain breezy to gust for most of the
afternoon and evening thanks to a lee-side surface low off the
southern portions of the Front Ranges. Look for speeds to be in
the 20 to 25 mph range with gust nearing 35 mph at times. Low
chances at thunderstorms still exist this afternoon with KDHT and
KGUY still having the better chances of seeing impacts. However,
latest models runs are still not to enthusiastic about the
possibility with some only giving a 15 to 20% chance at an
isolated storm. Have left the vicinity showers present in the TAF
package for now, given that confidence is not high enough for
anything else. Otherwise, VFR conditions should hold outside of
any storm interference.

VFR prevails through the TAF period with increasing southerly to
southwesterly winds area wide this afternoon. Peak gusts of 15 to
25 kts can be expected. The exception will be near isolated
thunderstorms developing along a dryline feature banked up N-S
along the TX border late today near the 22Z to 03Z timeframe.
Frequent lightning, hail, and erratic and severe wind gusts will
accompany these thunderstorms as they move into TX. Although not
mentioned in the KTCC TAF due to low coverage and confidence of
even a vicinity mention, there is a low chance for some impacts
from a thunderstorm at KTCC today however unlikely.
