Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1127 PM MDT Mon Jun 16 2025
A couple surges of cooler and more moist northeast to northerly
winds should bring a return of stratus and MVFR ceilings to the
TAF sites starting 10Z-12Z. There will even be a chance of showers
or a rare isolated morning thunderstorm Tuesday morning as that
higher moisture content airmass moves in. The main concern will
then shift to thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon, and possible severe
storms. Those could start as early as 19Z and then organize into
a linear storm complex which would potentially produce 50+ kt
gusts as they move east across the I-25 Corridor. We have beefed
up the winds for now to G38kts in a TEMPO group, but a 10-20% of
reaching severe thresholds (50 kts) at KDEN. We think the main
threat of storms would be pushing east of the TAF sites by 23Z,
but still a chance of a lingering shower/isolated storm til 02Z
Wednesday. Then gradual clearing and lighter drainage winds
developing beyond 02Z.

For KCOS and KPUB..Other than thunderstorm potential, VFR conditions
are expected through the period. A cold front is backing across our
plains early this morning, which will bring about chances for strong
to severe storms at both stations. Storms are expected between
around 21Z through 02Z, with variable outflow winds gusting over
45kt through the same timeframe. Hail and heavy rainfall will also
be possible with storms on Tuesday afternoon.
At KALS..VFR conditions are expected through the period. West winds
with gusts to 28kt are expected at KALS through much of the
afternoon, turning slightly more northwesterly around 00Z. East
winds shooting through the mountain gaps east of station are likely
after 03Z.

Most areas will see lighter, terrain driven winds overnight with
exception of a few spots that may see enhanced downslope winds
due to an increase in winds aloft ahead of an approaching
disturbance. KTEX may experience some LLWS as well overnight due
to stronger winds aloft moving overhead. SCT to BKN clouds will
continue overnight across northern and central portions of the
area as a disturbance approaches and moves through Tuesday
afternoon. Breezy conditions pick up again after 16Z Tuesday
with gusts 25 to 35 mph once again especially across SW
Colorado. VFR conditions will prevail the next 24 hours.

Salt Lake City Aviation Discussion
Issued at 2222 UTC Monday, June 16, 2025
.AVIATION...KSLC... Winds are expected to calm somewhat following
00z as they continue to transition to predominately northwesterly to
around 5kts by 06-07z. Winds will be light and variable through the
evening, though should remain mostly northwesterly into the morning.
During the day tomorrow, winds pick up once again out of the
northwest to around 10-12kts following 15z.
.AVIATION...REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING... All sites are
expected to shift to northwesterly this evening following the
passage of a dry frontal boundary with winds tapering off through
the overnight. Regarding KBCE, a fire is currently ongoing to the
southwest. In the next few hours, smoke could begin to settle
reducing ceilings and/or reducing visibilities overnight at the
terminal. There is some uncertainty surrounding this, so amendments
will likely be needed. Tomorrow afternoon, gusty northwest winds
will resume across all sites.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 930 PM MDT Mon Jun 16 2025
VFR conditions at all TAF sites for the entire period. Storms
have pushed east of CPR with only mid and upper level clouds
left for the overnight and into Tuesday. Winds increase at
BPI/PNA/JAC/RKS west of the Divide with a tightening gradient
from the west. Otherwise, no storms expected. East of the Divide
will see some storm activity at COD/CPR with a minimal chance at
WRL (carrying only VCSH at this time). COD will be best between
21-01Z and CPR between 18-23Z being a bit earlier development
than previous days ending into the early evening well before
sunset. Coverage will be less, and thus still carrying the
PROB30 groups at this time. Otherwise, only mid to upper level
clouds in the wake of these storms with all locations having
diminished winds after 01-03Z towards sunset with radiational
cooling into the overnight hours and through Wednesday morning.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

Thunderstorms will persist into Wednesday morning and afternoon,
with MVFR visibilities and gusty, erratic winds expected inside
thunderstorms. Some low stratus development is possible across
western and southwest Nebraska towards sunrise leading to MVFR
CIGs, though confidence in this is low. CIGS should rise in any
stratus that does develop back to VFR into Wednesday afternoon.
Winds remain east-northeast outside of thunderstorms, at 10 to
15kts.

For KGLD... Skies are forecast to be clear for the first few
hours as storms have moved east of the terminal. As the night
goes on, another round of showers/storms is possible around
10-13Z, though the chances are only around 15% so it is not
included in TAF at this time. The continued moisture advection
is at least forecast to drop ceilings to around 1500-2500ft
around 11Z. The lower ceilings will then likely linger until
closer to 18Z when daytime heating could allow the cloud cover
to lift. A word of caution is that the low ceilings could last
until the next round of storms moves through, roughly around
00Z. The chances for this round of storms is higher and could be
severe with wind gusts in excess of 60 kts. The good news is
that once the storms pass (around 03Z), VFR conditions and
clearing skies are forecast. Winds should remain from the east
in the absence of storms until tomorrow night, then shifting to
out of the north.
For KMCK... Showers and storms are forecast to linger through
most of the night, though some breaks in-between rounds are
forecast. There could be times with one to two hours breaks in
the storms. A break in the showers/storms is forecast between
18-00Z, before another round/line of storms moves near the
terminal. There is a chance that the line of storms could move
over the terminal, with severe storms possible and wind gusts
exceeding 50 kts. Lower ceilings are also forecast to develop
around 2000ft. This should linger until about the 03-06Z
timeframe, when drier air will push in and allow for clear/VFR
conditions. Winds will generally be from the east in the absence
of storms, until after 03Z when winds will shift to out of the

Thunderstorms will be in the vicinity of HYS for the next few
hours, and maintained a convective TEMPO group for HYS 06-09z
Tue. Outflow wind gusts of 45-55 kts are likely. Other airports
are expected to remain dry. Southeast winds will remain
gusty/elevated through 12z Tue. Consensus of short term models
is for MVFR to low end VFR stratus to spread into DDC/GCK/HYS
06-12z Tue, with no stratus at LBL. Stratus ceilings will
gradually improve daylight Tuesday. A strong cold front will
bring a sharp north wind shift to the airports 18-21z Tue, with
north wind gusts as high as 35 kts. Thunderstorm placement and
coverage along/behind this cold front Tuesday afternoon and
evening is highly uncertain. Prefer to keep convection mention
out of the end of the TAF period until model agreement improves.

VFR conditions are expected at all terminals through this forecast
period. A cold front will move in from the north later this
afternoon bringing a wind change and gusty winds. There will be a
low chance for thunderstorms in the late afternoon and evening for
KDHT and KGUY, but confidence is too low at this time to include
even a PROB30.

concern tonight as well most areas, and have included mention of
this in the TAFs. Peak gusts Tuesday afternoon will be 25 to 35
kts before winds taper off and calm again Tuesday evening b/w 00Z
to 03Z. A cold front will bring a northerly to northeasterly wind
shift thru eastern NM Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, and
this is included at KLVS and KTCC. This front will reach KROW b/w
