.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/...
Issued at 1145 AM MDT Mon Sep 23 2024
VFR conditions and dry weather are expected across the TAF sites
this forecast period. A few showers and even an isolated
thunderstorm are possible across the southwest mountains,
however, they will remain over the higher terrain this
afternoon. Winds will be diurnally driven this afternoon into
the evening time frame, but do expect a wind shift to the north
for COS and PUB late this evening as a trough/boundary moves
south across the plains. By early Tuesday morning, flow aloft
increases and given this trend, anticipate northerly gusts to
be in place Tuesday morning through the end of the forecast
period. Should see a diminishing trend closer to 18z, but will
let later forecasts address the duration of the strongest gusts
during the end of the forecast period or the middle part of
Tuesday.

A few building clouds over the terrain are occurring late this
morning...a few of which may lead to some light showers over the
southern mountains through sunset. However VFR conditions will
prevail under a light wind regime. The biggest challenge will be
forecasting the return of low clouds/ground fog near KGUC again
tonight...confidence low but placed a hint in the forecast for
now.

Patchy high cirrus clouds are moving southward across the
region, but no low or middle atmosphere clouds are expected
over the next 24 hours. A subtle front originating in Montana
will drift southward east of the Continental Divide, causing a
northerly component to the wind this afternoon and evening;
however, no wind gusts over 20 kts are forecast for TAF sites.
KBYG will be more favorably positioned for 25 to 35 kt gusts
this afternoon, which can already be seen. Winds decrease
overnight, and will remain light on Tuesday.

A weak cold front will move across the area late this afternoon and
evening. The front is expected to bring increased mid to upper level
cloud cover to all terminals this evening and overnight. A brief
sprinkle could be possible with the front this evening around
western Nebraska terminals. A shift to more northerly winds is also
expected tonight behind the front. VFR conditions will likely
prevail at all terminals through the TAF period.

BUFR soundings and short term ensembles are in good agreement,
indicating a period of ceilings between 6000 and 12000 ft AGL
ahead of an upper level trough crossing Kansas late tonight into
early Tuesday. Although precipitation is not expected, some
scattered sprinkles or very light showers cant be completely
ruled out, though the chance is low (<20%), so no precipitation
will be included in the 18z TAFs. Along with increasing clouds
late tonight, a surface boundary will cross southwest Kansas
between 09z and 18z Tuesday. Light winds today and early tonight
will shift to the north at 10 to 20 knots as the surface
boundary passes.
