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. * * * * * Southeast Colorado * * * * * METAR K4BM 161815Z AUTO 16014G22KT 10SM CLR 20/M08 A3036 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 161755Z AUTO 16016G23KT 10SM CLR 19/M07 A3036 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 161735Z AUTO 15013G21KT 10SM CLR 20/M08 A3037 RMK AO2 METAR KAFF 161755Z AUTO 18011G17KT 10SM FEW130 FEW190 31/M04 A2992 RMK AO2 SLP026 T03081044 10312 20099 57014 METAR KAFF 161655Z AUTO 14008KT 10SM CLR 30/M01 A2994 RMK AO2 SLP031 T02971007 METAR KAFF 161555Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 27/03 A2995 RMK AO2 SLP031 T02690034 KCOS 161737Z 1618/1718 19013G23KT P6SM FEW120 FM162100 21016G26KT P6SM SCT120 BKN250 FM170200 25012KT P6SM FEW120 FM170500 36007KT P6SM SKC FM171600 19012KT P6SM SKC METAR KCOS 161754Z 20015G28KT 10SM FEW140 33/02 A2991 RMK AO2 PK WND 22028/1754 SLP020 T03280022 10328 20128 58014 $ METAR KCOS 161654Z 18011KT 10SM FEW120 31/03 A2994 RMK AO2 SLP029 T03110028 $ METAR KCOS 161554Z 18007KT 10SM FEW120 27/04 A2995 RMK AO2 SLP038 T02720044 $ SPECI KABH 161818Z AUTO 20014G18KT 10SM CLR 33/M03 A2992 RMK AO2 WSHFT 15 SLP038 METAR KABH 161755Z AUTO 23013G18KT 10SM CLR 33/M03 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP041 T03311026 10331 20129 57008 SPECI KABH 161748Z AUTO 25012G18KT 10SM CLR 32/M02 A2993 RMK AO2 WSHFT 46 SLP044 METAR KFLY 161815Z AUTO 18016G19KT 10SM SCT120 31/01 A2999 RMK AO2 T03110010 METAR KFLY 161755Z AUTO 22010G16KT 10SM CLR 31/00 A3000 RMK AO2 T03051002 10305 20115 METAR KFLY 161735Z AUTO 19009KT 10SM CLR 30/00 A3000 RMK AO2 T02980000 SPECI KFCS 161804Z AUTO 17010G19KT 10SM CLR 33/M04 A2985 RMK AO2 WSHFT 1759 SLP018 $ METAR KFCS 161755Z AUTO 19012G19KT 10SM CLR 33/M08 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP018 T03251078 10326 20135 57014 $ METAR KFCS 161655Z AUTO 21010G17KT 10SM CLR 32/M04 A2987 RMK AO2 SLP029 T03151038 $ KPUB 161737Z 1618/1718 14005KT P6SM FEW250 FM162000 21017G27KT P6SM FEW120 FM170200 26012KT P6SM SCT200 FM170600 VRB04KT P6SM FEW200 METAR KPUB 161753Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 33/06 A2980 RMK AO2 SLP013 T03280056 10333 20133 58017 METAR KPUB 161653Z VRB03KT 10SM CLR 31/09 A2983 RMK AO2 SLP020 T03060089 METAR KPUB 161553Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 28/09 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP027 T02780089 METAR KVTP 161815Z AUTO 27007G16KT 230V300 10SM CLR 19/M02 A3041 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 161755Z AUTO 28007KT 240V300 10SM CLR 19/00 A3040 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 161735Z AUTO 26006KT 230V290 10SM CLR 18/00 A3042 RMK AO2 METAR KTAD 161754Z AUTO 20010KT 10SM CLR 34/M01 A2991 RMK AO2 SLP024 T03391006 10344 20111 58013 $ METAR KTAD 161654Z AUTO 23012G18KT 10SM CLR 33/02 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP033 T03280017 $ METAR KTAD 161554Z AUTO 26011G17KT 10SM CLR 32/04 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP035 T03170039 $ METAR KLHX 161753Z AUTO VRB05KT 10SM CLR 34/08 A2980 RMK AO2 SLP016 T03390078 10339 20172 58012 METAR KLHX 161653Z AUTO 25007KT 10SM CLR 31/08 A2981 RMK AO2 SLP024 T03110083 METAR KLHX 161553Z AUTO 26008KT 10SM CLR 27/09 A2983 RMK AO2 SLP033 T02720094 METAR KLAA 161753Z AUTO VRB04KT 10SM CLR 34/09 A2977 RMK AO2 SLP016 T03390094 10339 20178 58010 METAR KLAA 161653Z AUTO 27004KT 10SM CLR 32/11 A2978 RMK AO2 SLP023 T03170106 METAR KLAA 161553Z AUTO 29009KT 10SM CLR 28/11 A2979 RMK AO2 SLP026 T02830111 Sunrise/Sunset for 06/16/2024 Burlington - 05:22:02 MDT / 20:17:56 MDT Pueblo - 05:34:42 MDT / 20:24:03 MDT Lamar - 05:27:14 MDT / 20:15:29 MDT Pueblo (KPUX) 06/16/24 18:19 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 15000 FT MSL...230/021 14000 FT MSL...216/017 13000 FT MSL...221/016 12400 FT MSL...215/015 12000 FT MSL...218/015 11000 FT MSL...229/016 10900 FT MSL...222/016 10000 FT MSL...229/015 9700 FT MSL...224/015 9000 FT MSL...226/014 8600 FT MSL...221/014 8000 FT MSL...220/014 7800 FT MSL...219/011 7100 FT MSL...214/011 7000 FT MSL...211/010 6400 FT MSL...207/010 6000 FT MSL...214/010 5900 FT MSL...218/011 5700 FT MSL...220/011 Pueblo Aviation Discussion Issued at 1747 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/...

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. * * * * * Northwest Colorado * * * * * METAR KCAG 161753Z AUTO 36003KT 10SM CLR 26/01 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP058 T02560011 10256 20061 56016 METAR KCAG 161653Z AUTO 30003KT 10SM CLR 23/04 A2994 RMK AO2 SLP063 T02330039 METAR KCAG 161553Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 21/05 A2996 RMK AO2 SLP074 T02060050 METAR KHDN 161756Z AUTO VRB04KT 10SM CLR 23/01 A2997 RMK AO2 SLP065 T02280006 10228 20078 56012 METAR KHDN 161656Z AUTO VRB04KT 10SM CLR 21/01 A2998 RMK AO2 SLP068 T02060011 METAR KHDN 161556Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 18/02 A2999 RMK AO2 SLP074 T01830022 METAR KSBS 161815Z AUTO 27006KT 10SM CLR 24/02 A2995 RMK AO1 T02410022 METAR KSBS 161755Z AUTO 32005KT 10SM CLR 23/02 A2996 RMK AO1 T02280015 10231 20065 METAR KSBS 161735Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 22/01 A2996 RMK AO1 T02240009 METAR KC07 161815Z AUTO 26006KT 10SM CLR 16/M01 A3023 RMK AO2 METAR KC07 161755Z AUTO 25004KT 10SM CLR 16/00 A3024 RMK AO2 LTG DSNT N METAR KC07 161735Z AUTO 24006KT 10SM CLR 16/M01 A3023 RMK AO2 METAR KEEO 161753Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 26/02 A2991 RMK AO2 SLP037 T02610022 10261 20044 56018 $ METAR KEEO 161653Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 24/M01 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP047 T02391006 $ METAR KEEO 161553Z AUTO 14003KT 10SM CLR 21/04 A2995 RMK AO2 SLP055 T02060044 $ METAR K20V 161815Z AUTO 22018G27KT 10SM CLR 27/M01 A3000 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 161755Z AUTO 24012G21KT 10SM CLR 26/M01 A3001 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 161735Z AUTO 24014G17KT 10SM CLR 26/M01 A3001 RMK AO2 METAR KGNB 161815Z AUTO 26004KT 10SM CLR A3006 RMK AO2 METAR KGNB 161755Z AUTO 29008KT 10SM CLR A3007 RMK AO2 METAR KGNB 161735Z AUTO 33006KT 10SM CLR A3007 RMK AO2 METAR K0CO 161815Z AUTO 21009G32KT 141V251 SCT080 12/M08 A3041 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 161755Z AUTO 25016G25KT 171V261 SCT080 12/M06 A3041 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 161735Z AUTO 27024G34KT CLR 11/M07 A3041 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR KC99 161812Z AUTO 29005G19KT 10SM SCT100 18/M06 A3028 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 161754Z AUTO 28011G18KT 10SM CLR 17/M06 A3028 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 161732Z AUTO 28008G15KT 10SM CLR 17/M06 A3028 RMK AO2 KGJT 161728Z 1618/1718 24011G20KT P6SM SKC FM162100 22016G28KT P6SM SKC FM170500 19009KT P6SM FEW200 FM171200 12009KT P6SM SKC FM171600 18014KT P6SM SKC METAR KGJT 161753Z 10SM CLR 34/M03 A2980 RMK AO2 SLP001 T03391028 10339 20189 56012 METAR KGJT 161653Z 10SM CLR 32/M03 A2981 RMK AO2 SLP010 T03171028 METAR KGJT 161553Z 12014KT 10SM CLR 29/01 A2982 RMK AO2 SLP014 T02940006 KRIL 161728Z 1618/1718 25012G22KT P6SM SKC FM162300 23018G33KT P6SM FEW150 FM170300 20011G21KT P6SM FEW150 FM170600 36006KT P6SM FEW150 FEW250 FM171700 22013G23KT P6SM FEW150 FEW250 METAR KRIL 161753Z AUTO 27010KT 10SM CLR 31/M02 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP024 T03061017 10306 20100 56020 METAR KRIL 161653Z AUTO VRB04KT 10SM CLR 27/02 A2987 RMK AO2 SLP035 T02670022 METAR KRIL 161553Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 23/04 A2989 RMK AO2 SLP045 T02280044 METAR K5SM 161815Z AUTO 23008G18KT 150V300 10SM SCT080 20/M01 A3029 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 161755Z AUTO 22010G20KT 180V260 10SM CLR 20/00 A3029 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 161737Z AUTO 23006G18KT 210V300 10SM CLR 18/M01 A3029 RMK AO2 LTG DSNT N KEGE 161825Z 1618/1718 22016G25KT P6SM FEW140 FM170500 27009KT P6SM SKC WS020/23030KT FM171500 21008KT P6SM SKC FM171700 22014G23KT P6SM FEW130 FEW250= METAR KEGE 161756Z 21010G20KT 190V250 10SM CLR 29/M03 A2994 RMK AO2 SLP054 T02891028 10289 20067 56024 METAR KEGE 161656Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 25/02 A2996 RMK AO2 SLP059 T02500017 METAR KEGE 161556Z VRB03KT 10SM CLR 20/02 A2999 RMK AO2 SLP069 T02000022 KASE 161825Z 1618/1718 25010G23KT P6SM FEW140 FM170200 19009KT P6SM SKC FM170500 16006KT P6SM SKC WS020/23030KT FM171500 21007KT P6SM FEW140 FEW250= METAR KASE 161753Z 27007G17KT 230V300 10SM CLR 26/M04 A3004 RMK AO2 SLP038 T02561044 10256 20094 56007 METAR KASE 161653Z 17010G17KT 130V200 10SM CLR 25/M04 A3004 RMK AO2 SLP037 T02501044 METAR KASE 161553Z 17010KT 10SM CLR 24/M04 A3005 RMK AO2 SLP038 T02391044 METAR KCCU 161815Z AUTO 16016G23KT 10SM CLR 16/M08 A3038 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 161755Z AUTO 17016G23KT 10SM CLR 16/M08 A3039 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 161735Z AUTO 17014G26KT 10SM CLR 16/M07 A3039 RMK AO2 METAR KLXV 161753Z AUTO 21014G27KT 10SM CLR 22/M06 A3020 RMK AO2 PK WND 27028/1706 SLP040 T02171061 10217 20017 57009 METAR KLXV 161653Z AUTO 18010G17KT 10SM CLR 20/M06 A3021 RMK AO2 SLP050 T02001061 METAR KLXV 161553Z AUTO 20010G16KT 10SM CLR 18/M02 A3021 RMK AO2 SLP052 T01781022 Sunrise/Sunset for 06/16/2024 Rangely -

Issued at 1124 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 VFR conditions will prevail through the forecast period. Several terminals will see a breezy west wind develop between 18Z and 20Z this afternoon, with gusts around 20kts. KCPR may see a southwest wind develop later this afternoon, but models continue to lack confidence in mixing occur to precipitate a SW wind develop. Have included a Tempo group to account for this uncertainty. Winds will diminish after 00Z and remain light overnight. Cloud cover will increase late in the period as a cold front approaches the region. Ahead of this cold front, southwest winds will also begin to increase. Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence forecasts. Cheyenne Aviation Discussion Issued at 1755 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/... Issued at 1140 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 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. * * * * * Nebraska * * * * * METAR KIBM 161815Z AUTO 02010G15KT 10SM CLR 22/08 A2990 RMK AO2 T02160077 METAR KIBM 161755Z AUTO 04009G16KT 10SM CLR 21/07 A2991 RMK AO2 T02110073 10215 20140 METAR KIBM 161735Z AUTO 05010G16KT 10SM CLR 21/08 A2991 RMK AO2 T02090077 KSNY 161739Z 1618/1718 04010KT P6SM SKC FM162200 10015G25KT P6SM FEW200 FM170300 06011KT P6SM BKN150 FM171000 02010KT P6SM SCT005 OVC012 FM171600 03010KT P6SM OVC025 METAR KSNY 161753Z AUTO 05008G19KT 10SM CLR 23/08 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP063 T02280083 10228 20144 58000 METAR KSNY 161653Z AUTO 03010G20KT 10SM CLR 22/08 A2987 RMK AO2 SLP066 T02170078 METAR KSNY 161553Z AUTO 02014G22KT 10SM CLR 21/08 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP065 T02060078 METAR KOGA 161815Z AUTO 05011G14KT 020V080 10SM CLR 26/12 A2983 RMK AO2 T02610123 METAR KOGA 161755Z AUTO 05010KT 10SM CLR 26/12 A2983 RMK AO2 T02560123 10256 20180 METAR KOGA 161735Z AUTO 03010G16KT 10SM CLR 25/12 A2983 RMK AO2 T02510122 METAR KIML 161753Z AUTO 04010KT 10SM CLR 28/12 A2979 RMK AO2 SLP048 T02830122 10283 20178 53003 METAR KIML 161653Z AUTO 07013KT 10SM CLR 27/12 A2978 RMK AO2 PK WND 06026/1638 SLP047 T02670117 METAR KIML 161553Z AUTO 03015G22KT 10SM CLR 26/12 A2979 RMK AO2 SLP051 T02560117 KMCK 161756Z 1618/1718 06013G21KT P6SM SKC FM162200 15012KT P6SM FEW110 FM170100 15014G24KT P6SM VCTS SCT100CB FM170500 17015G25KT P6SM FEW110 WS020/18050KT FM171500 21019G27KT P6SM FEW250 WS020/19045KT METAR KMCK 161753Z AUTO 08013G21KT 10SM -RA CLR A2975 RMK AO2 RAB06 SLPNO P0000 60000 55000 $ METAR KMCK 161653Z AUTO 04012G18KT 10SM CLR A2974 RMK AO2 SLPNO $ METAR KMCK 161553Z AUTO 36006KT 10SM CLR A2974 RMK AO2 SLPNO $ North Platte (KLNX) 06/16/24 18:15 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 13000 FT MSL...193/040 12000 FT MSL...194/040 12000 FT MSL...193/040 11000 FT MSL...194/038 10100 FT MSL...195/035 10000 FT MSL...196/033 9000 FT MSL...202/026 8600 FT MSL...204/024 8000 FT MSL...201/025 7400 FT MSL...207/018 7000 FT MSL...170/004 6300 FT MSL...035/009 6000 FT MSL...036/013 5500 FT MSL...012/015 5000 FT MSL...010/017 4700 FT MSL...010/017 4100 FT MSL...010/016 4000 FT MSL...011/018 3600 FT MSL...011/017 3400 FT MSL...014/016 North Platte Aviation Discussion Issued at 1733 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/...

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. * * * * * Texas/Oklahoma * * * * * KGUY 161720Z 1618/1718 20016G25KT P6SM SKC FM162000 19019G29KT P6SM SKC FM162200 18020G32KT P6SM VCSH BKN100 FM170300 16019G29KT P6SM SCT250 FM171000 19017G27KT P6SM SCT220= METAR KGUY 161753Z AUTO 19017G27KT 10SM CLR 34/18 A2978 RMK AO2 PK WND 20027/1750 SLP026 T03390183 10339 20228 58006 METAR KGUY 161653Z AUTO 19013G22KT 10SM CLR 32/18 A2979 RMK AO2 SLP029 T03220183 METAR KGUY 161553Z AUTO 21014G24KT 10SM CLR 31/18 A2979 RMK AO2 SLP031 T03110178 KDHT 161720Z 1618/1718 21014G22KT P6SM SKC FM162100 19015G25KT P6SM SKC FM162300 17018G28KT P6SM VCSH BKN100 FM170200 15017G27KT P6SM FEW250 FM170800 18016KT P6SM FEW240 METAR KDHT 161753Z AUTO 19015G24KT 10SM CLR 33/17 A2986 RMK AO2 PK WND 23029/1657 SLP040 T03330167 10339 20183 56005 $ METAR KDHT 161653Z AUTO 22015G23KT 10SM CLR 32/16 A2986 RMK AO2 SLP040 T03220156 $ METAR KDHT 161553Z AUTO 23014G23KT 10SM CLR 31/16 A2987 RMK AO2 PK WND 23026/1518 SLP043 T03060156 $ Amarillo (KAMA) 06/16/24 18:19 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 15000 FT MSL...321/009 13000 FT MSL...222/009 12600 FT MSL...232/007 12000 FT MSL...241/008 11000 FT MSL...175/009 10800 FT MSL...183/010 10000 FT MSL...188/010 9300 FT MSL...190/011 9000 FT MSL...198/016 8000 FT MSL...199/018 8000 FT MSL...199/018 7100 FT MSL...193/022 7000 FT MSL...193/022 6200 FT MSL...185/022 6000 FT MSL...184/022 5400 FT MSL...181/022 5000 FT MSL...182/022 4800 FT MSL...181/021 4300 FT MSL...177/023 4000 FT MSL...174/022 4000 FT MSL...179/022 Amarillo Aviation Discussion Issued at 1730 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1219 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 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. * * * * * New Mexico * * * * * KFMN 161721Z 1618/1718 08006KT P6SM SKC FM162000 24013G23KT P6SM SKC FM170200 26011KT P6SM SKC FM170600 VRB06KT P6SM SKC METAR KFMN 161753Z VRB06KT 10SM CLR 31/M08 RMK AO2 SLPNO T03061078 10311 20111 $ METAR KFMN 161653Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 28/M03 RMK AO2 SLPNO T02831028 $ METAR KFMN 161553Z 09006KT 10SM CLR 25/01 RMK AO2 SLPNO T02500006 $ METAR KSKX 161756Z AUTO 25010KT 10SM CLR 29/M03 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP108 T02891028 10294 20072 58014 METAR KSKX 161656Z AUTO 23007KT 190V260 10SM CLR 28/M01 A3011 RMK AO2 SLP111 T02781011 METAR KSKX 161556Z AUTO 21006KT 10SM CLR 26/01 A3013 RMK AO2 SLP119 T02560011 KLVS 161721Z 1618/1718 17011KT P6SM SKC FM161900 20015G25KT P6SM SCT150 FM170200 17013KT P6SM SCT150 FM170900 VRB06KT P6SM SKC METAR KLVS 161753Z AUTO 18015G22KT 10SM SCT110 28/06 A3006 RMK AO2 SLP047 T02830056 10289 20133 56011 METAR KLVS 161653Z AUTO 15008KT 10SM CLR 27/09 A3007 RMK AO2 SLP053 T02720094 METAR KLVS 161553Z AUTO 17009KT 10SM CLR 24/11 A3008 RMK AO2 SLP059 T02440111 METAR KRTN 161753Z AUTO 18008KT 10SM CLR 29/07 A2999 RMK AO2 SLP053 T02940072 10294 20100 58013 METAR KRTN 161653Z AUTO 15005KT 10SM CLR 27/08 A3001 RMK AO2 SLP064 T02670083 METAR KRTN 161553Z AUTO 10004KT 10SM CLR 24/09 A3002 RMK AO2 SLP069 T02390089 METAR KCAO 161755Z AUTO 25014G20KT 10SM CLR 33/11 A2990 RMK AO2 SLP039 T03330111 10333 20172 58007 $ METAR KCAO 161655Z AUTO 24014G22KT 10SM CLR 31/13 A2991 RMK AO2 SLP046 T03110128 $ METAR KCAO 161555Z AUTO 24011G21KT 10SM CLR 29/13 A2991 RMK AO2 SLP047 T02940133 $ Albuquerque (KABX) 06/16/24 18:14 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 19000 FT MSL...270/008 18000 FT MSL...251/007 17100 FT MSL...265/015 17000 FT MSL...263/024 14800 FT MSL...273/012 13000 FT MSL...227/007 13000 FT MSL...197/016 12000 FT MSL...178/007 11500 FT MSL...198/008 11000 FT MSL...180/006 10300 FT MSL...211/005 10000 FT MSL...159/003 9200 FT MSL...245/005 9000 FT MSL...245/005 8400 FT MSL...256/005 8000 FT MSL...239/005 7600 FT MSL...241/003 6500 FT MSL...195/003 6300 FT MSL...178/003 Albuquerque Aviation Discussion Issued at 1723 UTC Sunday, June 16, 2024 .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1111 AM MDT Sun Jun 16 2024 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. * * * * * Winds and Temperatures Aloft Forecasts * * * * * DATA BASED ON 161200Z VALID 161800Z FOR USE 1700-2100Z.
