Issued at 1206 AM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 An upper jet is forcing widespread high level cirriform clouds across western Nebraska, while a leading area of upper divergence is resulting in a more scattered to broken cirrus belt moving southeast across northwest Kansas. A dry boundary layer ridge is providing light and variable winds Tonight, and the slightest surface warming and mixing, will help mix northerly gusts to the surface in the west where a transient weak low pressure area moves from the I-70 corridor to south east of DDC between 12 and 21 UTC. LAMP guidance is giving gusts near 20 knots at DDC, and closer to 27 knots for GCK and LBL between 17 and 22 UTC. Other than that that, no restrictions as VFR category is expected. * * * * * Texas/Oklahoma * * * * * KGUY 240522Z 2406/2506 24008KT P6SM SKC FM241400 36019G29KT P6SM SCT250 FM250100 VRB06KT P6SM SKC= METAR KGUY 240653Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 12/10 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP106 T01170100 METAR KGUY 240553Z AUTO 22005KT 10SM CLR 11/11 A2994 RMK AO2 SLP112 T01060106 10233 20106 402440078 50001 METAR KGUY 240453Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 13/12 A2995 RMK AO2 SLP114 T01330117 KDHT 240522Z 2406/2506 23010KT P6SM SKC FM241400 36020G30KT P6SM SCT250 FM250100 05008KT P6SM SKC METAR KDHT 240453Z AUTO 16003KT 10SM CLR 14/09 A3002 RMK AO2 SLP123 T01440089 Amarillo (KAMA) 09/24/24 06:56 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 15000 FT MSL...353/039 14000 FT MSL...357/037 13000 FT MSL...350/036 12700 FT MSL...350/036 12000 FT MSL...352/034 11000 FT MSL...352/032 10800 FT MSL...351/033 10000 FT MSL...354/033 9300 FT MSL...350/031 9000 FT MSL...346/028 8100 FT MSL...333/023 8000 FT MSL...332/023 7100 FT MSL...315/017 7000 FT MSL...315/017 6200 FT MSL...286/015 6000 FT MSL...279/016 5500 FT MSL...253/021 5000 FT MSL...250/025 4700 FT MSL...239/025 4300 FT MSL...238/028 4000 FT MSL...243/022 Amarillo Aviation Discussion Issued at 0529 UTC Tuesday, September 24, 2024 .AVIATION...

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1111 PM MDT Mon Sep 23 2024 VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the TAF period, however there is a low chance (~10%) that patchy fog develops along the lower Pecos River Valley near KROW around sunrise this morning. A backdoor front will enter this northeast between 15Z and 18Z this morning, pushing south and west through the afternoon. Briefly gusty winds are possible through the gaps of the central mountain chain between 03Z and 09Z Monday night, but winds should remain well-below AWW criteria. * * * * * Winds and Temperatures Aloft Forecasts * * * * * DATA BASED ON 240000Z VALID 240600Z FOR USE 0500-0900Z.
