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 031435Z AUTO 16010G18KT 10SM CLR 11/00 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 031415Z AUTO 16012G15KT 10SM CLR 10/01 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR K4BM 031355Z AUTO 17011KT 10SM CLR 10/01 A3052 RMK AO2 METAR KAFF 031410Z 18005KT 10SM BKN010 BKN015 16/13 A3020 RMK AO2A SLP136 METAR KAFF 031355Z 19005KT 10SM OVC009 16/13 A3020 RMK AO2A SLP136 T01590126 METAR KAFF 031255Z 21007KT 10SM OVC009 15/12 A3020 RMK AO2A SLP136 T01470122 KCOS 031158Z 0312/0412 13010KT P6SM BKN015 BKN025 FM031600 17012KT P6SM FEW050 FM032100 16015G25KT P6SM VCSH SCT150 FM040000 15015G27KT P6SM FEW150 FM040400 12008KT P6SM SKC FM040900 35015KT P6SM SKC SPECI KCOS 031434Z 15009KT 10SM SCT009 BKN014 OVC031 18/14 A3022 RMK AO2 T01780144 METAR KCOS 031354Z 14008KT 10SM BKN014 BKN031 17/14 A3021 RMK AO2 SLP150 T01670144 SPECI KCOS 031343Z 16008KT 10SM BKN014 BKN031 17/14 A3021 RMK AO2 T01670139 METAR KABH 031355Z AUTO 15010KT 10SM BKN007 OVC012 18/16 A3020 RMK AO2 SLP151 T01750157 METAR KABH 031345Z AUTO 16010KT 10SM BKN007 OVC013 17/15 A3020 RMK AO2 CIG 007V013 BKN V SCT SLP151 METAR KABH 031325Z AUTO 17010KT 10SM SCT008 OVC014 17/15 A3020 RMK AO2 CIG 007V014 SLP151 METAR KFLY 031435Z AUTO 17011G19KT 130V190 10SM OVC004 16/14 A3025 RMK AO2 T01620141 METAR KFLY 031415Z AUTO 14013G17KT 10SM OVC004 16/15 A3026 RMK AO2 T01610146 METAR KFLY 031355Z AUTO 14007KT 10SM OVC006 16/14 A3025 RMK AO2 T01550141 SPECI KFCS 031410Z 15007KT 10SM OVC015 18/13 A3015 RMK AO2A SLP150 $ METAR KFCS 031358Z 16006KT 10SM SCT015 BKN040 17/13 A3016 RMK AO2A SLP154 T01730128 $ SPECI KFCS 031340Z 15005KT 10SM BKN015 OVC022 16/12 A3015 RMK AO2A SLP150 $ KPUB 031158Z 0312/0412 13006KT P6SM BKN020 OVC035 FM031800 14012KT P6SM SCT090 FM032100 13012G22KT P6SM BKN120 FM040000 10012KT P6SM SCT150 FM040600 34006KT P6SM SKC SPECI KPUB 031425Z 13004KT 10SM SCT014 SCT019 OVC030 21/16 A3012 RMK AO2 T02060161 METAR KPUB 031353Z 10004KT 10SM BKN014 OVC027 20/15 A3012 RMK AO2 SLP132 T02000150 METAR KPUB 031253Z 05003KT 10SM BKN017 OVC027 19/15 A3012 RMK AO2 SLP130 T01940150 METAR KVTP 031435Z AUTO 28005KT 10SM CLR 11/06 A3057 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 031415Z AUTO 29006KT 10SM CLR 11/06 A3056 RMK AO2 METAR KVTP 031355Z AUTO 28007KT 10SM CLR 11/06 A3056 RMK AO2 METAR KTAD 031354Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 21/13 A3017 RMK AO2 SLP130 T02060128 METAR KTAD 031254Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 17/12 A3017 RMK AO2 SLP135 T01670122 METAR KTAD 031154Z AUTO 25008KT 10SM FEW100 14/12 A3015 RMK AO2 SLP131 T01440117 10200 20144 51011 SPECI KLHX 031419Z AUTO 12012KT 10SM SCT016 BKN022 OVC035 21/18 A3011 RMK AO2 T02110178 METAR KLHX 031353Z AUTO 14014KT 10SM BKN039 BKN046 21/19 A3010 RMK AO2 SLP127 T02110189 METAR KLHX 031253Z AUTO 10011KT 10SM FEW024 SCT055 BKN070 19/18 A3009 RMK AO2 LTG DSNT E SLP126 T01940183 $ SPECI KLAA 031418Z AUTO 10SM SCT060 OVC095 20/16 A3007 RMK AO2 RAE1354 P0000 T02000161 METAR KLAA 031353Z AUTO 10SM VCTS -RA OVC065 18/16 A3009 RMK AO2 TSE19B24E39 SLP138 P0026 T01780161 SPECI KLAA 031339Z AUTO 7SM VCTS -RA FEW021 OVC065 18/16 A3010 RMK AO2 LTG DSNT NE TSE19B24E39 P0025 T01780161 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 14:41 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 13000 FT MSL...305/025 12000 FT MSL...286/018 11000 FT MSL...245/022 10900 FT MSL...260/010 10000 FT MSL...231/011 9700 FT MSL...213/013 9000 FT MSL...207/015 8600 FT MSL...190/015 8000 FT MSL...183/017 7800 FT MSL...172/017 7100 FT MSL...149/019 7000 FT MSL...153/018 6300 FT MSL...141/021 6000 FT MSL...136/019 5900 FT MSL...134/020 5700 FT MSL...134/019 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 031353Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 11/06 A3023 RMK AO2 SLP176 T01110056 METAR KCAG 031253Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 07/06 A3022 RMK AO2 SLP175 T00720056 METAR KCAG 031153Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 05/04 A3021 RMK AO2 SLP176 T00500039 10106 20044 53004 METAR KHDN 031356Z AUTO 11005KT 10SM CLR 12/03 A3025 RMK AO2 SLP173 T01170028 METAR KHDN 031256Z AUTO 11004KT 10SM CLR 09/03 A3025 RMK AO2 SLP177 T00890028 METAR KHDN 031156Z AUTO 11007KT 10SM CLR 06/01 A3023 RMK AO2 SLP178 70001 T00560011 10128 20056 51003 METAR KSBS 031435Z AUTO 14003KT 10SM CLR 11/03 A3025 RMK AO1 T01130032 METAR KSBS 031415Z AUTO 11003KT 10SM CLR 10/03 A3024 RMK AO1 T01010032 METAR KSBS 031355Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 09/03 A3026 RMK AO1 T00900028 METAR KC07 031435Z AUTO 29004KT 10SM CLR 08/M02 A3044 RMK AO2 METAR KC07 031415Z AUTO 29004KT 10SM CLR 07/M03 A3044 RMK AO2 METAR KC07 031355Z AUTO 30004KT 10SM CLR 07/M03 A3044 RMK AO2 METAR KEEO 031353Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 10/02 A3024 RMK AO2 SLP164 T01000017 METAR KEEO 031253Z AUTO 13004KT 10SM CLR 07/02 A3024 RMK AO2 SLP166 T00670022 METAR KEEO 031153Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 06/02 A3022 RMK AO2 SLP159 T00610017 10122 20050 51001 METAR K20V 031435Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 10/05 A3031 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 031415Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 09/05 A3031 RMK AO2 METAR K20V 031355Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 08/05 A3031 RMK AO2 METAR KGNB 031435Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 10/M14 A3033 RMK AO2 T00961138 METAR KGNB 031415Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 09/M13 A3033 RMK AO2 T00871130 METAR KGNB 031355Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 08/M12 A3033 RMK AO2 T00761121 METAR K0CO 031435Z AUTO 28019G30KT CLR 06/M06 A3054 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 031415Z AUTO 29017G36KT 241V321 CLR 05/M06 A3054 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR K0CO 031355Z AUTO 29024G35KT CLR 06/M08 A3052 RMK AO2 PWINO METAR KC99 031433Z AUTO 28009KT 10SM CLR 10/M04 A3045 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 031413Z AUTO 27007KT 10SM CLR 09/M02 A3045 RMK AO2 METAR KC99 031353Z AUTO 24003KT 10SM CLR 09/M03 A3045 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 031410Z 12006KT 3SM FEW001 20/03 A3013 RMK AO2 T02000033 METAR KGJT 031353Z 15006KT 10SM CLR 19/03 A3012 RMK AO2 SLP124 T01940028 METAR KGJT 031253Z 06006KT 10SM CLR 18/02 A3010 RMK AO2 SLP118 T01780017 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 031353Z AUTO 33003KT 10SM CLR 14/04 A3019 RMK AO2 SLP158 T01390044 METAR KRIL 031253Z AUTO 00000KT 10SM CLR 12/04 A3017 RMK AO2 SLP152 T01170044 METAR KRIL 031153Z AUTO 07004KT 10SM CLR 09/04 A3017 RMK AO2 SLP152 T00940039 10167 20094 51009 METAR K5SM 031435Z AUTO 23008G16KT 10SM CLR 10/M03 A3051 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 031415Z AUTO 23010G16KT 10SM CLR 09/M03 A3051 RMK AO2 METAR K5SM 031355Z AUTO 22008G14KT 10SM CLR 08/M03 A3050 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 031356Z 28003KT 10SM CLR 11/06 A3028 RMK AO2 SLP151 T01060056 PNO $ METAR KEGE 031256Z AUTO 09005KT 10SM CLR 08/05 A3027 RMK AO2 SLP149 T00830050 PNO $ METAR KEGE 031156Z AUTO 10003KT 10SM CLR 07/05 A3027 RMK AO2 SLP147 6//// 7//// T00720050 10133 20072 53007 PNO $ KASE 031120Z 0312/0412 21004KT P6SM SKC FM031700 30009KT P6SM SKC FM031900 32013G22KT P6SM SKC FM040400 21007KT P6SM SKC METAR KASE 031353Z 16004KT 10SM CLR 11/03 A3030 RMK AO2 SLP156 T01060033 METAR KASE 031253Z 11003KT 10SM CLR 08/03 A3029 RMK AO2 SLP149 T00780033 METAR KASE 031153Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 06/03 A3027 RMK AO2 SLP141 70003 T00610028 10106 20056 55001 METAR KCCU 031435Z AUTO 25017G23KT 10SM CLR 12/M06 A3055 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 031415Z AUTO 26016G26KT 10SM CLR 12/M05 A3055 RMK AO2 METAR KCCU 031355Z AUTO 24017G26KT 10SM CLR 12/M03 A3054 RMK AO2 METAR KLXV 031353Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 11/03 A3039 RMK AO2 SLP118 T01060033 METAR KLXV 031253Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 06/02 A3039 RMK AO2 SLP130 T00560022 METAR KLXV 031153Z AUTO VRB03KT 10SM CLR 03/01 A3038 RMK AO2 SLP135 70006 T00280006 10072 20017 58005 Sunrise/Sunset for 07/03/2024 Rangely -

More numerous showers and thunderstorms will build up across northern WY in the afternoon, with gusty winds and lowered cigs possible at KCOD/KWRL/KGEY/KBYG. The chance of any convection at KRIW and KLND remains less than 1 out of 6, so have kept any precip notes from TAFS at KRIW and KCPR. Precip will end early evening with loss of daytime heating, but gusty winds will likely continue until 06Z/Thu.

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 031353Z AUTO 17020G29KT 10SM -RA SCT040 BKN070 OVC100 19/17 A3007 RMK AO2 PK WND 15036/1331 WSHFT 1316 RAE1258B04 TSB1254E09B36E51 SLP140 P0012 T01890172 SPECI KGLD 031336Z AUTO 15020G36KT 6SM -TSRA SCT055 BKN070 OVC100 19/16 A3005 RMK AO2 PK WND 15036/1331 WSHFT 1316 RAE1258B04 TSB1254E09B36 PRESFR P0011 T01890161 SPECI KGLD 031317Z AUTO 17012KT 2 1/2SM +RA BR SCT050 OVC090 18/17 A3012 RMK AO2 RAE1258B04 TSB1254E09 P0005 T01830167 KGCK 031120Z 0312/0412 07013KT P6SM SCT050 FM031700 13012KT P6SM BKN040 FM040200 VRB06KT P6SM BKN035 METAR KGCK 031354Z 10009KT 10SM CLR 22/19 A3001 RMK AO2 SLP127 T02170189 METAR KGCK 031254Z 07007KT 10SM CLR 21/17 A3000 RMK AO2 SLP122 T02060172 METAR KGCK 031154Z AUTO 09009KT 10SM FEW060 SCT075 BKN095 21/19 A3000 RMK AO2 SLP120 60007 70007 T02110194 10228 20206 58005 SPECI KLBL 031438Z AUTO 11012KT 10SM BKN011 A3004 RMK AO2 FZRANO PNO $ SPECI KLBL 031417Z AUTO 11009KT 10SM FEW009 A3004 RMK AO2 FZRANO PNO $ METAR KLBL 031356Z AUTO 12008KT 10SM FEW120 A3004 RMK AO2 SLPNO FZRANO PNO $ METAR KEHA 031435Z AUTO 12008KT 10SM BKN011 OVC026 21/19 A3011 RMK AO2 T02120187 METAR KEHA 031415Z AUTO 12007KT 10SM SCT008 BKN013 21/19 A3010 RMK AO2 T02130186 METAR KEHA 031355Z AUTO 10008KT 10SM OVC008 21/19 A3009 RMK AO2 T02100185 Goodland (KGLD) 07/03/24 14:41 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 30000 FT MSL...222/043 28000 FT MSL...229/039 27700 FT MSL...224/045 26000 FT MSL...238/038 25000 FT MSL...240/038 24000 FT MSL...245/038 22000 FT MSL...253/038 21000 FT MSL...257/037 20000 FT MSL...259/032 19000 FT MSL...248/030 18000 FT MSL...267/032 17500 FT MSL...276/025 17000 FT MSL...271/029 16000 FT MSL...264/025 15000 FT MSL...267/020 14900 FT MSL...265/019 14000 FT MSL...257/014 13000 FT MSL...255/016 12700 FT MSL...248/013 12000 FT MSL...239/013 11000 FT MSL...089/004 10800 FT MSL...126/010 10000 FT MSL...154/016 9200 FT MSL...123/018 9000 FT MSL...134/020 8100 FT MSL...124/022 8000 FT MSL...127/021 7000 FT MSL...142/023 7000 FT MSL...129/024 6200 FT MSL...146/024 6000 FT MSL...144/024 5400 FT MSL...149/024 5000 FT MSL...148/024 4700 FT MSL...149/019 4300 FT MSL...136/025 4000 FT MSL...139/021 4000 FT MSL...137/021 Dodge City (KDDC) 07/03/24 14:36 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 35000 FT MSL...238/064 30000 FT MSL...235/052 28000 FT MSL...231/053 26000 FT MSL...228/049 25000 FT MSL...244/041 24000 FT MSL...243/039 23300 FT MSL...241/031 22000 FT MSL...249/030 20000 FT MSL...251/027 20000 FT MSL...236/018 19000 FT MSL...249/026 18000 FT MSL...247/024 17000 FT MSL...247/024 16500 FT MSL...251/012 16000 FT MSL...250/022 15000 FT MSL...252/021 14000 FT MSL...247/019 13000 FT MSL...244/019 12000 FT MSL...242/014 11600 FT MSL...264/011 11000 FT MSL...246/015 10000 FT MSL...238/015 9800 FT MSL...219/013 9000 FT MSL...202/014 8300 FT MSL...176/017 8000 FT MSL...170/017 7100 FT MSL...142/020 7000 FT MSL...144/020 6000 FT MSL...130/023 5900 FT MSL...126/020 5100 FT MSL...111/021 5000 FT MSL...111/020 4300 FT MSL...101/022 4000 FT MSL...099/025 3700 FT MSL...104/019 3200 FT MSL...114/019 3000 FT MSL...126/016 3000 FT MSL...126/016 Goodland Aviation Discussion Issued at 1136 UTC Wednesday, July 3, 2024 .AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY/... Issued at 527 AM MDT Wed Jul 3 2024 For KGLD... Varied conditions are forecast for the morning as some showers/storms move through the area. The first few hours will likely be characterized by ceilings varying between 1000ft and 3000ft+ and intermittent rain showers. Once the showers clear and clouds begin to break, skies will clear and VFR conditions are forecast. The next hazard to watch for will be strong to severe storms moving through around the 00Z hour. There is some uncertainty if the storms will move over the terminal or form. Severe storms are unlikely if cloud cover or showers linger through much of the day. After about 03Z, storm chances decrease and a front will begin to move through. The front should bring drier air and a shift in winds to out of the north. Clear skies are forecast for the remainder of the period. For KMCK... Lower ceilings and visibility are possible for the first few hours of the period. Higher level sky cover is trying to help keep fog from forming, though low level moisture seems to be developing intermittent fog. Later in the morning, cloud cover is forecast to break, though there is a round a 30% chance it will persist through the day. The next hazard will be the potential for strong to severe storms around or shortly after 00Z. There is some uncertainty if those storms will reach the terminal (especially if cloud cover lingers), but currently have a cluster forecast to move through around 01Z. Once this passes, there should be a brief period of clearing before another chance for storms as the front moves through after 06Z. Didn`t have as much confidence in that round, so left it out for now. If that wasn`t enough, if the front doesn`t remove enough moisture, fog and low stratus will be possible near the end of the period. 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= SPECI KGUY 031443Z AUTO 13007KT 10SM BKN010 22/21 A3004 RMK AO2 T02220206 $ SPECI KGUY 031414Z AUTO 11006KT 10SM BKN009 22/21 A3004 RMK AO2 T02170206 METAR KGUY 031353Z AUTO 10008KT 10SM BKN010 22/20 A3003 RMK AO2 SLP122 T02170200 KDHT 031120Z 0312/0412 07010KT P6SM SCT100 BKN250 FM032000 17016G26KT P6SM BKN100 PROB30 0321/0403 VRB30G40KT 5SM -TSRA BR OVC040CB FM040300 14010KT P6SM BKN250 SPECI KDHT 031423Z AUTO 05009KT 10SM FEW009 22/18 A3009 RMK AO2 T02170183 METAR KDHT 031353Z AUTO 04011KT 10SM CLR 21/18 A3008 RMK AO2 SLP124 T02060178 METAR KDHT 031253Z AUTO 04010KT 10SM CLR 20/17 A3007 RMK AO2 SLP116 T02000167 Amarillo (KAMA) 07/03/24 14:43 UTC Radar VAD winds Height Dir/Spd(kt) 30300 FT MSL...229/023 30000 FT MSL...234/036 28000 FT MSL...229/037 26000 FT MSL...231/030 25200 FT MSL...231/022 25000 FT MSL...232/029 24000 FT MSL...211/018 22000 FT MSL...217/031 20900 FT MSL...214/029 20000 FT MSL...212/028 19000 FT MSL...218/026 18000 FT MSL...223/024 17500 FT MSL...232/022 17000 FT MSL...236/022 16000 FT MSL...238/021 15000 FT MSL...240/018 14900 FT MSL...246/018 14000 FT MSL...239/017 13000 FT MSL...240/018 12600 FT MSL...246/019 12000 FT MSL...240/018 11000 FT MSL...240/019 10800 FT MSL...242/020 10000 FT MSL...242/021 9200 FT MSL...248/022 9000 FT MSL...244/022 8000 FT MSL...262/024 8000 FT MSL...250/026 7100 FT MSL...256/026 7000 FT MSL...248/028 6200 FT MSL...256/024 6000 FT MSL...256/024 5400 FT MSL...233/017 5000 FT MSL...213/013 4800 FT MSL...213/010 4300 FT MSL...130/006 4000 FT MSL...114/008 4000 FT MSL...126/007 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.
