For KCOS, VFR expected next 24 hours with light winds.
For KPUB, VFR likely next 24 hours with light winds. The only
concern is there is an outside chance of some br around sunrise
tomorrow morning.
For KALS, they have recieved a lot of precip over the last 24
hours and this low level moisture is trapped in the valley. It
is expected to clear out later this evening per guidance, and
this SHOULD allow for fog, possibly dense, to form in the valley
floor. If fog does develop, it should clear out by mid to late
morning.

Clouds will slowly scour out this evening and mostly clear, VFR
conditions with light winds will return to the terminals. Skies
will remain mostly clear into the afternoon Monday, with some
scattered to broken clouds possible on the mountains again. A
few isolated showers can`t be ruled out Monday afternoon, thanks
to better sunshine and instability on the terrain. KEGE, KASE,
KGUC, and KTEX will once again be good targets of opportunity
for watching shower development. Gusty winds will be the biggest
threat Monday in and around showers. Elsewhere, winds remain
light and terrain driven through the day, with sunny skies.

.AVIATION...KSLC...Fairly inactive period expected. A dry cold
frontal boundary will pass on Monday, but do little other than bring
an increase of mid to upper level clouds and reinforce diurnal NW
winds. To that end, anticipate light SE flow to develop this evening
between 03Z-05Z, and return to NW around 17Z-18Z thereafter Monday.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Weather anticipated to remain
fairly quiet at area TAF sites through the upcoming period with VFR
conditions prevailing. A dry cold front will pass through northern
terminals during the day Monday, but do little other than help
enhance NW wind component at most northern terminals and bring an
increase in mid to upper level clouds. Otherwise, mostly anticipate
a diurnally typical pattern to wind directions with magnitudes
generally less than 15 kts through the day.

Issued at 415 PM MDT Sun Sep 22 2024
VFR prevails through Monday at all terminals. A slow-moving upper
low over Colorado tracks east tonight as an upstream kicker
shortwave drops into the Northern Rockies. This shortwave swings
into the Northern Plains Monday morning spreading increasing
mid/high clouds into the forecast area beginning late tonight. The
shortwave also nudges a weak cold front into northern Wyoming late
in the forecast period. A north wind around 10-15kts follows the
front which reaches KCOD and nears KWRL between 15Z-18Z/Monday.
Speeds will be higher at non-TAF airports KBYG and KGEY. The front
pushes into central Wyoming during the afternoon switching the wind
to the north to northwest. Mid-cloud cover will be most extensive
east of the Continental Divide.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

VFR conditions prevail early this evening, though SCT-BKN low
clouds persist across much of northern and central NM. Cigs may
lower along the east slopes of the Central Mountain Chain this
evening to MVFR, but low clouds should gradually dissipate after
midnight as surface winds veer around to the west. Patchy fog is
likely across the Moreno Valley, including KAXX, overnight. Also
can`t rule it out elsewhere near the east slopes of the Central
Mountain Chain for a brief time.
