Issued at 523 AM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 VFR through the TAF period with no ceiling or visibility concerns today. Main challenge in the forecast is the winds. Expecting gusty west-northwesterly flow to develop by late morning or early afternoon at DEN/BJC, with an uncertain wind forecast at APA. Any outflow from storms to the east would also complicate things this afternoon/evening but chances of that look quite low. Winds will weaken this evening but likely won`t manage to transition to drainage flow before a strong cold front shifts winds to the north. Guidance has pretty robust gusts behind the frontal push and have bumped up the timing and strength of winds in this period. There are still some occasional hints of low stratus developing closer to 12z Thursday but will stick with some FEW020-030 for now. * * * * * Southeast Colorado * * * * * METAR K4BM 031655Z AUTO 17013G18KT 10SM CLR 16/M01 A3053 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 031635Z AUTO 16010G17KT 10SM CLR 16/00 A3053 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 031615Z AUTO 16010G16KT 10SM CLR 15/00 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR KAFF 031655Z 18012KT 10SM BKN020 21/14 A3017 RMK AO2A SLP120 T02110138 SPECI KAFF 031646Z 16012KT 10SM BKN020 21/14 A3017 RMK AO2A SLP120 SPECI KAFF 031611Z 20012KT 10SM SCT013 BKN015 BKN025 20/14 A3018 RMK AO2A SLP123 KCOS 031515Z 0315/0412 13010KT P6SM BKN009 FM031600 17012KT P6SM SCT050 TEMPO 0316/0317 BKN012 FM032100 16015G25KT P6SM VCSH SCT150 FM040000 15015G27KT P6SM FEW150 FM040400 12008KT P6SM SKC FM040900 35015KT P6SM SKC METAR KCOS 031654Z 15011G21KT 10SM BKN018 BKN027 22/14 A3019 RMK AO2 SLP135 T02220144 SPECI KCOS 031625Z 17011G19KT 10SM BKN018 BKN027 22/14 A3019 RMK AO2 T02170144 METAR KCOS 031554Z 16012KT 10SM FEW009 BKN014 BKN031 21/15 A3019 RMK AO2 SLP138 T02110150 METAR KABH 031655Z AUTO 16010G19KT 10SM SCT020 BKN027 OVC036 22/15 A3018 RMK AO2 SLP144 T02150153 SPECI KABH 031645Z AUTO 16014KT 10SM SCT020 SCT026 OVC036 22/15 A3018 RMK AO2 SLP144 SPECI KABH 031610Z AUTO 15011G18KT 10SM SCT016 SCT023 BKN034 22/15 A3018 RMK AO2 SLP144 METAR KFLY 031655Z AUTO 15012G15KT 130V200 10SM SCT023 BKN030 BKN036 22/13 A3023 RMK AO2 T02200129 METAR KFLY 031635Z AUTO 15012KT 10SM SCT016 SCT027 SCT032 22/14 A3023 RMK AO2 T02170137 METAR KFLY 031615Z AUTO 17011G15KT 10SM BKN014 BKN024 BKN028 19/14 A3023 RMK AO2 T01940140 METAR KFCS 031655Z AUTO 16015KT 10SM CLR 24/15 A3011 RMK AO2 SLP121 T02360148 $ METAR KFCS 031555Z AUTO 14013KT 10SM FEW019 19/13 A3013 RMK AO2 SLP143 T01930132 $ SPECI KFCS 031540Z 13012KT 10SM SCT017 SCT024 19/14 A3014 RMK AO2A SLP147 $ KPUB 031158Z 0312/0412 13006KT P6SM BKN020 OVC035 FM031800 14012KT P6SM SCT090 FM032100 13012G22KT P6SM BKN120 FM040000 10012KT P6SM SCT150 FM040600 34006KT P6SM SKC METAR KPUB 031653Z 00000KT 10SM BKN029 23/16 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP124 T02330161 METAR KPUB 031553Z 18005KT 10SM OVC028 23/16 A3010 RMK AO2 SLP126 T02280161 SPECI KPUB 031513Z 13007KT 10SM SCT018 BKN027 22/16 A3011 RMK AO2 T02170161 METAR KVTP 031655Z AUTO 25009G15KT 10SM CLR 16/02 A3057 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 031635Z AUTO 25010G15KT 10SM CLR 16/03 A3057 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 031615Z AUTO 25006KT 10SM CLR 16/04 A3057 RMK AO2 METAR KTAD 031654Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 27/12 A3014 RMK AO2 SLP116 T02720122 METAR KTAD 031554Z AUTO 09004KT 10SM CLR 25/13 A3016 RMK AO2 SLP124 T02500128 METAR KTAD 031454Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 23/13 A3016 RMK AO2 SLP128 T02280128 50003 METAR KLHX 031653Z AUTO 12013KT 10SM CLR 25/17 A3007 RMK AO2 SLP117 T02500172 METAR KLHX 031553Z AUTO 13015G21KT 10SM BKN037 23/17 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP125 T02330172 SPECI KLHX 031507Z AUTO 13015KT 10SM SCT018 BKN038 22/18 A3010 RMK AO2 T02170178 METAR KLAA 031653Z AUTO 10SM SCT050 26/18 A3006 RMK AO2 SLP125 T02560183 METAR KLAA 031553Z AUTO 10SM SCT060 24/17 A3006 RMK AO2 SLP124 T02440172 METAR KLAA 031453Z AUTO 10SM CLR 23/17 A3006 RMK AO2 RAE1354 SLP126 P0000 60040 T02330172 50010 Sunrise/Sunset for 07/03/2024 Burlington - 05:27:41 MDT / 20:19:18 MDT Pueblo - 05:40:16 MDT / 20:25:31 MDT Lamar - 05:32:48 MDT / 20:16:58 MDT Pueblo (KPUX) 07/03/24 16:57 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 14000 FT MSL...289/027 13000 FT MSL...284/028 12400 FT MSL...274/029 12000 FT MSL...276/028 11000 FT MSL...264/023 10900 FT MSL...261/022 10000 FT MSL...236/013 9700 FT MSL...224/012 9000 FT MSL...207/012 8600 FT MSL...194/011 8000 FT MSL...178/011 7800 FT MSL...171/011 7100 FT MSL...153/013 7000 FT MSL...152/013 6300 FT MSL...142/013 6000 FT MSL...142/014 5900 FT MSL...140/014 5700 FT MSL...136/015 Pueblo Aviation Discussion Issued at 0948 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/... Issued at 343 AM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 KALS: VFR conditions are expected through 24 hours. West winds will pick up this afternoon, gusting to around 25-30 knots, before weakening in the evening. KCOS and KPUB: Southeast upsloping winds will dominate most of the morning, before turning more southerly in the afternoon. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to form in the area around mid-afternoon, moving in from the nearby higher terrain, lowering cloud ceilings and generating gusty outflow winds. If a thunderstorm manages to move close to the terminals, winds will become strong and erratic, around 40 knots or so, and precipitation could briefly limit visibility into MVFR range. * * * * * Northwest Colorado * * * * * METAR KCAG 031653Z AUTO 11003KT 10SM CLR 22/04 A3020 RMK AO2 SLP166 T02220039 METAR KCAG 031553Z AUTO 04005KT 10SM CLR 20/04 A3021 RMK AO2 SLP168 T02000044 METAR KCAG 031453Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 16/06 A3022 RMK AO2 SLP176 T01560056 50002 METAR KHDN 031656Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 20/M01 A3024 RMK AO2 SLP166 T02001006 METAR KHDN 031556Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 18/02 A3024 RMK AO2 SLP171 T01780022 METAR KHDN 031456Z AUTO 09007KT 10SM CLR 14/03 A3025 RMK AO2 SLP175 T01440033 50006 METAR KSBS 031655Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 18/01 A3023 RMK AO1 T01830009 METAR KSBS 031635Z AUTO 21003KT 10SM CLR 18/01 A3024 RMK AO1 T01750005 METAR KSBS 031615Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 17/04 A3024 RMK AO1 T01680036 METAR KC07 031655Z AUTO 28007KT 10SM CLR 12/M02 A3046 RMK AO2 METAR KC07 031635Z AUTO 28004KT 10SM CLR 11/M02 A3045 RMK AO2 METAR KC07 031615Z AUTO 28006KT 10SM CLR 11/M02 A3045 RMK AO2 METAR KEEO 031653Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 20/02 A3022 RMK AO2 SLP164 T02000017 METAR KEEO 031553Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 17/02 A3023 RMK AO2 SLP165 T01670017 METAR KEEO 031453Z AUTO 01004KT 10SM CLR 14/01 A3024 RMK AO2 SLP169 T01440011 50006 METAR K20V 031655Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 18/06 A3027 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 031635Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 16/06 A3027 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 031615Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 15/05 A3028 RMK AO2 METAR KGNB 031655Z AUTO 28008KT 160V310 10SM CLR 18/M26 A3031 RMK AO2 T01781259 METAR KGNB 031635Z AUTO 24003KT 10SM CLR 17/M22 A3031 RMK AO2 T01651219 METAR KGNB 031615Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 16/M20 A3031 RMK AO2 T01561205 METAR K0CO 031655Z AUTO 29029G36KT CLR 08/M07 A3055 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 031635Z AUTO 29022G33KT CLR 08/M08 A3055 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 031615Z AUTO 29018KT CLR 07/M08 A3055 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR KC99 031653Z AUTO 25004G19KT 10SM CLR 14/M06 A3046 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 031633Z AUTO 30007G15KT 10SM CLR 13/M05 A3046 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 031613Z AUTO 29008G19KT 10SM CLR 12/M05 A3046 RMK AO2 KGJT 031120Z 0312/0412 11007KT P6SM SKC FM031500 14007KT P6SM SKC FM031900 29008KT P6SM SKC FM032100 28016G24KT P6SM SKC FM040300 32007KT P6SM SKC FM040700 01003KT P6SM SKC SPECI KGJT 031700Z 13005KT 7SM FEW001 27/03 A3011 RMK AO2 T02670028 METAR KGJT 031653Z 15006KT 10SM CLR 26/03 A3012 RMK AO2 SLP125 T02610033 METAR KGJT 031553Z 15007KT 10SM CLR 25/00 A3013 RMK AO2 SLP127 T02500000 KRIL 031120Z 0312/0412 VRB03KT P6SM SKC FM031800 28008KT P6SM SKC FM032000 27016G25KT P6SM SKC FM040200 30011KT P6SM SKC FM040600 28005KT P6SM SKC METAR KRIL 031653Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 23/03 A3017 RMK AO2 SLP146 T02330033 METAR KRIL 031553Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 21/03 A3018 RMK AO2 SLP154 T02060028 METAR KRIL 031453Z AUTO 06007KT 10SM CLR 18/05 A3020 RMK AO2 SLP159 T01830050 51009 METAR K5SM 031655Z AUTO 24010G17KT 200V270 10SM CLR 15/00 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 031635Z AUTO 24010G20KT 210V270 10SM CLR 14/M01 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 031615Z AUTO 23010G19KT 10SM CLR 13/M01 A3052 RMK AO2 KEGE 031120Z 0312/0412 VRB03KT P6SM SKC FM031700 25008KT P6SM SKC FM031900 26016G25KT P6SM SKC FM040300 24008KT P6SM SKC FM040600 10004KT P6SM SKC METAR KEGE 031656Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 21/05 A3023 RMK AO2 SLP136 T02110050 PNO $ METAR KEGE 031556Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 17/05 A3025 RMK AO2 SLP143 T01720050 PNO $ METAR KEGE 031456Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 13/05 A3028 RMK AO2 SLP150 6//// T01330050 50003 PNO $ KASE 031120Z 0312/0412 21004KT P6SM SKC FM031700 30009KT P6SM SKC FM031900 32013G22KT P6SM SKC FM040400 21007KT P6SM SKC METAR KASE 031653Z 36010KT 10SM CLR 21/04 A3028 RMK AO2 SLP137 T02110039 METAR KASE 031553Z 34006KT 10SM CLR 18/04 A3028 RMK AO2 SLP140 T01830039 METAR KASE 031453Z 00000KT 10SM CLR 14/03 A3029 RMK AO2 SLP150 T01440028 50006 METAR KCCU 031655Z AUTO 27015G24KT 230V300 10SM CLR 15/M06 A3056 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 031635Z AUTO 26019G24KT 10SM CLR 13/M07 A3056 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 031615Z AUTO 25015G23KT 10SM CLR 13/M07 A3056 RMK AO2 METAR KLXV 031653Z AUTO 28012G27KT 10SM CLR 18/M06 A3041 RMK AO2 PK WND 31027/1647 SLP133 T01781056 METAR KLXV 031553Z AUTO 29010G20KT 10SM CLR 18/M04 A3040 RMK AO2 SLP119 T01781044 METAR KLXV 031453Z AUTO 35006KT 10SM CLR 16/M01 A3040 RMK AO2 SLP115 T01611006 53006 Sunrise/Sunset for 07/03/2024 Rangely - 05:51:16 MDT / 20:47:47 MDT Grand Junction - 05:53:29 MDT / 20:43:45 MDT Steamboat Springs - 05:42:11 MDT / 20:41:12 MDT Grand Junction (KGJX) 07/03/24 16:52 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 15000 FT MSL...285/033 14400 FT MSL...257/023 14000 FT MSL...284/028 13300 FT MSL...280/023 13000 FT MSL...269/023 12500 FT MSL...267/022 12000 FT MSL...268/022 11700 FT MSL...266/020 11000 FT MSL...270/018 11000 FT MSL...273/018 10400 FT MSL...282/012 10200 FT MSL...280/014 10100 FT MSL...285/012 Grand Junction Aviation Discussion Issued at 1704 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY/...

There will also be a brief period of LLWS in the late evening, could see winds up to 30 kts. * * * * * Kansas * * * * * KGLD 031327Z 0313/0412 16008KT 6SM -RA VCTS BKN010CB TEMPO 0313/0314 17020G30KT 2SM -TSRA BR BKN060CB FM031500 18015G23KT P6SM SCT030 FM040000 27025G40KT 4SM TSRA BKN070CB FM040200 18015KT P6SM SCT250 FM040900 32010G18KT P6SM SCT110 METAR KGLD 031653Z AUTO 15014KT 10SM BKN095 26/17 A3006 RMK AO2 SLP136 T02560167 METAR KGLD 031553Z AUTO 15012KT 10SM BKN100 24/17 A3006 RMK AO2 SLP141 T02390172 METAR KGLD 031453Z AUTO 13011KT 10SM CLR 21/14 A3006 RMK AO2 PK WND 15028/1426 RAE12 SLP140 P0000 60014 T02110144 56020 KGCK 031120Z 0312/0412 07013KT P6SM SCT050 FM031700 13012KT P6SM BKN040 FM040200 VRB06KT P6SM BKN035 METAR KGCK 031654Z 07011KT 10SM FEW008 BKN035 BKN070 23/22 A3006 RMK AO2 LTG DSNT E RAE32 SLP148 P0008 T02280217 SPECI KGCK 031614Z 03007KT 3SM -RA BR FEW027 BKN049 OVC060 21/21 A3008 RMK AO2 P0008 T02110211 SPECI KGCK 031604Z 02008KT 1 3/4SM +RA BR SCT027 BKN049 OVC055 21/21 A3008 RMK AO2 P0006 T02060206 METAR KLBL 031656Z AUTO 15005KT 10SM FEW110 A3006 RMK AO2 RAB18E31 SLPNO FZRANO PNO $ SPECI KLBL 031606Z AUTO 13009KT 10SM SCT013 A3004 RMK AO2 FZRANO PNO $ METAR KLBL 031556Z AUTO 13009KT 10SM BKN013 A3005 RMK AO2 SLPNO FZRANO PNO $ METAR KEHA 031655Z AUTO 15006KT 10SM OVC011 23/19 A3011 RMK AO2 T02270193 METAR KEHA 031635Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM OVC011 22/19 A3011 RMK AO2 T02190190 METAR KEHA 031615Z AUTO 14007KT 10SM OVC011 22/19 A3011 RMK AO2 T02200189 Goodland (KGLD) 07/03/24 17:02 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 25000 FT MSL...236/056 24000 FT MSL...248/049 16000 FT MSL...251/019 15000 FT MSL...251/021 14900 FT MSL...248/020 14000 FT MSL...248/018 13000 FT MSL...248/015 12700 FT MSL...237/020 12000 FT MSL...244/013 11000 FT MSL...239/021 10800 FT MSL...239/016 10000 FT MSL...234/018 9200 FT MSL...226/020 9000 FT MSL...223/020 8000 FT MSL...198/024 8000 FT MSL...200/023 7000 FT MSL...174/023 7000 FT MSL...177/024 6200 FT MSL...162/023 6000 FT MSL...161/023 5400 FT MSL...158/021 5000 FT MSL...157/020 4700 FT MSL...156/017 4300 FT MSL...158/020 4000 FT MSL...160/020 4000 FT MSL...159/020 Dodge City (KDDC) 07/03/24 16:58 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 40000 FT MSL...246/078 35000 FT MSL...241/069 30000 FT MSL...239/053 28000 FT MSL...254/043 26000 FT MSL...230/043 25000 FT MSL...242/045 24000 FT MSL...241/047 23300 FT MSL...239/044 22000 FT MSL...239/037 20000 FT MSL...239/029 20000 FT MSL...237/029 19000 FT MSL...237/028 18000 FT MSL...237/026 17000 FT MSL...242/024 16500 FT MSL...205/015 16000 FT MSL...243/021 15000 FT MSL...242/018 14000 FT MSL...252/019 13900 FT MSL...210/011 13000 FT MSL...254/017 12000 FT MSL...229/013 11700 FT MSL...209/013 10000 FT MSL...164/010 9800 FT MSL...163/010 9000 FT MSL...183/013 8300 FT MSL...181/017 8000 FT MSL...185/018 7100 FT MSL...187/021 7000 FT MSL...187/021 6000 FT MSL...140/014 5900 FT MSL...152/013 5100 FT MSL...131/012 5000 FT MSL...124/014 4300 FT MSL...117/010 4000 FT MSL...108/011 3200 FT MSL...092/010 3000 FT MSL...084/009 3000 FT MSL...084/009 Goodland Aviation Discussion Issued at 1558 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY/... Issued at 955 AM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 For KGLD, concerns for the forecast period will be the potential for thunderstorms. Currently, VFR conditions are expected, with VCTS potential from 23z-03z due to low confidence on timing. Some -SHRA possible from 03z-12z Thursday. Winds, south- southeast 15-25kts through 03z, then diminishing to 10kts. By 12z, northwest 15-25kts. For KMCK, concerns for the forecast period will be the potential for thunderstorms. Currently, VFR conditions are expected for much of the forecast period. MVFR ceilings around 11z-14z. VCTS in from 00z-04z due to low confidence on timing. 04z-11z could have 6sm in light showers impact the terminal. Winds, south-southeast 15-25kts through 04z Thursday, then 5-10kts. by 11z, northwest 10-20kts. Dodge City Aviation Discussion Issued at 1005 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/... Issued at 505 AM CDT Wed Jul 3 2024 Radar observations show widespread showers and decaying thunderstorms across southwest KS, bringing MVFR/IFR cigs and vis to DDC and shortly GCK/HYS. Short range guidance suggests this activity will continue through much of the morning hours before clearing all terminals by 18Z. Later this afternoon and evening, another round of thunderstorms is expected to move from southeast CO into western KS, and potentially bring impacts to GCK and LBL. However, confidence was too low to include in the TAFs. Otherwise, winds will gradually veer from easterly to south- southeasterly by early- afternoon, then become light and variable around sunset. * * * * * Texas/Oklahoma * * * * * KGUY 031120Z 0312/0412 08010KT P6SM BKN100 TEMPO 0312/0316 P6SM OVC009 FM032100 16015G25KT P6SM BKN100 PROB30 0321/0403 VRB30G40KT 5SM -TSRA BR OVC040CB FM040300 13008KT P6SM BKN250= METAR KGUY 031653Z AUTO 16009KT 10SM FEW027 26/21 A3004 RMK AO2 SLP121 T02610211 METAR KGUY 031553Z AUTO 14007KT 10SM FEW049 FEW080 SCT110 24/21 A3004 RMK AO2 SLP126 T02390211 SPECI KGUY 031505Z AUTO 14007KT 10SM SCT011 22/21 A3004 RMK AO2 T02220206 KDHT 031120Z 0312/0412 07010KT P6SM SCT100 BKN250 FM032000 17016G26KT P6SM BKN100 PROB30 0321/0403 VRB30G40KT 5SM -TSRA BR OVC040CB FM040300 14010KT P6SM BKN250 METAR KDHT 031653Z AUTO 13006KT 10SM FEW031 SCT120 26/18 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP129 T02610183 METAR KDHT 031553Z AUTO 07007KT 10SM FEW120 26/19 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP123 T02560189 METAR KDHT 031453Z AUTO 05011KT 10SM FEW009 23/18 A3009 RMK AO2 SLP125 T02280183 51013 Amarillo (KAMA) 07/03/24 17:01 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 30300 FT MSL...234/029 30000 FT MSL...230/035 28000 FT MSL...229/035 26000 FT MSL...227/034 25200 FT MSL...227/034 25000 FT MSL...228/034 24000 FT MSL...229/034 22000 FT MSL...228/034 20900 FT MSL...228/034 20000 FT MSL...229/035 19000 FT MSL...226/035 18000 FT MSL...226/035 17500 FT MSL...226/035 17000 FT MSL...224/035 16000 FT MSL...221/035 15000 FT MSL...218/035 14900 FT MSL...219/035 14000 FT MSL...217/034 13000 FT MSL...224/030 12600 FT MSL...224/029 12000 FT MSL...228/028 11000 FT MSL...227/027 10800 FT MSL...233/024 10000 FT MSL...230/025 9300 FT MSL...236/022 9000 FT MSL...236/023 8000 FT MSL...238/021 8000 FT MSL...240/022 7000 FT MSL...236/021 7000 FT MSL...236/021 6200 FT MSL...233/019 6000 FT MSL...234/019 5400 FT MSL...234/017 5000 FT MSL...235/014 4700 FT MSL...232/012 4300 FT MSL...241/014 4000 FT MSL...239/012 4000 FT MSL...239/011 Amarillo Aviation Discussion Issued at 1444 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION...

(12Z TAFS) Issued at 530 AM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 Isold shwrs are pushing across the nern and sern portions of the fcst area, including in and around KLVS and KROW. Expect that most of this activity will diminish or push into TX in the early hours of the TAF period. Drier air will intrude into NM today, shutting down convection for areas west of the central mts. Terminals across ern NM will still see rounds of aftn tstms, with some cells in the nern part of the state potentially seeing strong to severe storms late this aftn to evening. With the influx of drier air, storms will not linger long into the overnight hours, following a more typical diurnal pattern. Gusty wly to nwly winds will prevail most terminals in the aftn and evening before tapering off overnight. * * * * * Winds and Temperatures Aloft Forecasts * * * * * DATA BASED ON 031200Z VALID 031800Z FOR USE 1700-2100Z.
