VFR conditions will prevail through the TAF period, with clearing
skies by 06Z tonight. There is a slight chance (15%) of an isolated
rain shower or storm near KRIW this evening, but this is much less
likely than last night`s overnight convection. Wind will be light to
at most 10 knots for the next 24 hours, with the strongest wind
Sunday afternoon.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 1148 AM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
A mix of flight categories expected through tomorrow. Primarily
all sites will have a low risk of a passing shower or storm
which could briefly lower CIGs or VIS, but not expecting a long
duration event at any site. Otherwise, expecting a deck of low
clouds and possibly some BR at KCDR/KAIA tomorrow morning much
like this morning. Otherwise CIGs will be generally mid level,
around 8-10k feet. Winds around 5 to 15 knots, with some
occasional stronger gusts possible, particularly if a storm or
shower moves near or over a site. Storms expected through this
evening, weakening after the sun sets.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 614 PM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025
A slow moving upper level disturbance will continue to bring a
chance of showers and thunderstorms to the region through
Sunday, although the highest chances will be east of Highway 83.
Based on latest radar trends, have removed any mention of rain
tonight in the LBF taf as most of the lingering showers and
storms will stay west and east of the airport. For VTN, showers
and a few storms are heading southeast towards the area, thus
kept a tempo group from 00z to 03z for showers. By late
evening and overnight, low stratus and fog will develop across
much of the area. High confidence this will occur, but lower
confidence at the onset of the event. Low stratus, fog and
a chance of showers will lead to poor fly conditions through
mid-morning on Sunday before CIGS rise into the VFR category
along and generally west of Highway 83. MVFR CIGS may linger
into the afternoon to the east of Highway 83 as the system
slowly departs the area. Gusty winds up to around 20 knots
are possible on Sunday.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms can be observed on radar,
with chances (~20-35%) of these impacting both terminals over
the next few hours. To account for this potential while also
indicating the lowered confidence in coverage, included a PROB30
group for both KGLD and KMCK between 00Z-04Z this evening. VFR
conditions are expected to persist at KGLD, with MVFR to IFR
(and even periodic LIFR) ceilings and visibilities at KMCK. This
is due to the potential for low stratus and patchy fog at KMCK
tonight/tomorrow morning before categories are expected to
improve back to VFR around 18Z.

Showers and a few isolated thunderstorms may impact the vicinity of
KHYS and possibly KDDC through early/mid-evening. Otherwise,lingering
MVFR cigs in vicinity of KHYS are expected to spread west-southwest
late this evening through early Sunday as prevailing low level stratus
begins to lower/redevelop westward, increasing the potential for
MVFR/IFR cigs as far west as KGCK and KLBL by daybreak Sunday. Light
and variable winds are likely through much of the period as a weak
surface low in southwest Kansas sinks slowly southward into the Texas
Panhandle/western Oklahoma.

A bank of low level clouds remains over the panhandles for this
morning that can cause brief MVFR conditions. This deck is lifting
and scattering which will return conditions to VFR. This afternoon
and evening rain showers and thunderstorms are expected to form
in the panhandles. All terminals may be impacted by these with
KAMA having the highest chance, followed by KDHT, and then KGUY.
The rain showers and thunderstorms will be capable of producing
heavy rainfall that can reduce conditions to IFR or worse.
Further, some of the storms may become strong to severe and able
to produce damaging winds and large hail. Currently the threat for
severe storms is highest in the southern panhandles including
KAMA. Following the rain showers and thunderstorms another bank of
low clouds has a moderate chance of developing in the panhandles.
This deck would be capable of producing MVFR to IFR ceilings at
any terminal it impacts. This is most likely at KAMA thus is
reflected in the TAF, while KDHT and KGUY have lower chance thus
it is not reflected in the TAFs.

Showers and storms will develop over the high terrain of the
central mountain chain between 18Z and 22Z, moving into the plains
after 22Z. Storms will cluster together into an MCS in the eastern
plains in the evening, propagating south and westward along a
backdoor cold front. Storms may persist as late as 15Z in the
southeast plains near KROW, with MVFR to IFR cigs developing after
convection ends.
A backdoor front will surge through the gaps of the central
mountain chain around 06Z, creating gusty east winds of 25-35kt at
KABQ and KSAF. There is a moderate chance an AWW will be needed
at KABQ between 06Z and 12Z, but gust strength will be heavily
impacted by convective coverage/intensity in eastern NM.
