.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1146 AM MDT Tue Jun 18 2024
With the anticyclone still in place across the Denver area
airports this morning, winds are expected to continue with an
easterly/southeasterly component throughout the day. Winds have
increased and are expected to remain gusty into the evening with
some high based showers possible in the next few hours. Ensembles
show there is a chance for ceilings to drop below 6000 feet
tomorrow morning, however, confidence is low enough not to reflect
that in the TAFs at this time.

KALS: VFR conditions are expected through 24 hours, with gusty
southwest winds to around 25 knots this afternoon. Mid level clouds
will increase overnight towards the end of this forecast period.
KCOS and KPUB: Gusty winds this afternoon will shift between
easterly and southeasterly throughout the afternoon, with mid-level
clouds slowly increasing. Overnight tonight, winds will turn more
easterly and the upslope will bring in more cloud cover, with low
stratus blanketing the area by morning. Along with this, widespread
rain showers are expected, starting between 10-12Z and lasting for
several hours. Once the rain departs, the clouds are expected to
remain through the end of the period. While rain is not currently
expected to lower visibility much, cloud ceilings will waver between
low MVFR and IFR conditions.

Showers will increase after 18Z over northern portions of
Wyoming affecting mainly KJAC and KCOD. Mountain tops may be
obscured at times with some snow showers. Main aviation concern
is west winds gusting 20 to 25 kts this afternoon. Skies will
generally clear this evening, with light and variable winds
returning.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 1138 AM MDT Tue Jun 18 2024
Cool high pressure will continue to filter into the area during
the next 24hrs. As a result, gusty north-northwest winds will
continue to decrease as the day progresses. Cannot rule out a
few isolated light showers today, but for the most part the
cloud cover will gradually increase through the course of the
night. There is a possibility for some MVFR/IFR ceilings along
the southern Laramie Range and foothills and may even clip KCYS
during the mid morning tomorrow. Otherwise, VFR ceilings will
be the rule with east-northeast winds flipping around to
southeast by 15z.

KGLD...VFR conditions are expected from taf issuance through
about 08z. Northerly winds gusting to 30kts at taf issuance will
continue this afternoon before veering to the northeast around
13kts this evening through 08z. After 09z, sub VFR cigs are
expected as stratus expands across the area. Rain showers and
perhaps a few thunderstorms will be possible along with some
light reductions in visibility due to mist (BR). Winds will
remain from the northeast around 15kts with perhaps some higher
gusts.
KMCK...VFR conditions are expected from taf issuance through
about 11z. Northerly winds gusting to 30kts at taf issuance will
continue this afternoon before veering to the northeast around
12kts through 11z. After 12z, sub VFR cigs are expected as
stratus expands across the area. Rain showers and perhaps a few
thunderstorms will be possible along with some light reductions
in visibility due to mist (BR). Winds will remain from the
northeast around 11kts.

VFR will continue through the next several hours, with strong
south winds persisting, gusting to near 40 kts. Midday surface
observations showed a strong cold front draped across NW KS, and
this boundary will make progress further into SW KS this
afternoon. 12z ARW shows thunderstorms developing along this
cold front along a HYS-DDC-LBL line 21z-00z, and used this
timing as a guide in this set of TAFs. With the frontal boundary
becoming stationary for the remainder of the TAF period, periods
of rain, showers or thunderstorms will prevail through 18z Wed,
with reduced flight categories in locally heavy rainfall likely.
TAFs already include convective TEMPO groups for at least
initial development, but additional TEMPOs/amendments are likely
through the TAF period. Model consensus is for IFR stratus to
fill in behind the cold front/MCS through Wednesday morning,
with high confidence of degraded flight conditions through this
period.

VFR conditions are currently holding over the terminals with
breezy southerly winds present. However, potential of
thunderstorms is starting to increase for later this afternoon and
evening with KGUY and KAMA now seeing better chances of seeing
impacts. For KGUY, they have the best chances for seeing impacts,
which will likely be more on the strong gusty wind side. However,
confidence is not high enough to anything more than place vicinity
showers in the current package. Meanwhile, confidence is too low
for any mention this afternoon. Otherwise, higher amounts of
moisture are expected to move in during the overnight and bring
chances of showers and/or low-level cloud decks to all terminals
for Wednesday morning.

Southwest winds will increase thru the afternoon with gusts of 20
to 30 kt common at all terminals. Areas of smoke will reduce vsby
downwind of fires around Ruidoso. A dryline near the TX/NM border
will allow SHRA/TS to develop around 4pm today then move quickly
east/southeast into west TX thru 9pm. Some of this activity may
be strong to severe with hail and damaging winds. A backdoor cold
front will then surge southwest into eastern NM tonight with much
higher moisture and gusty northeast winds. Widespread MVFR low
cigs and SHRA/TS are likely behind the front for northeast NM
after midnight. Light gap winds will develop in the RGV as well
with gusts up to 25 kt from near KSAF to KABQ around sunrise. MVFR
low cigs may develop as far west as the central mt chain but
confidence is still low at this time.
