VFR conditions through tonight, but there will likely be periods
where ceilings in the 5000 to 6000 foot range may require
instrument approaches to KDEN at times. This is most likely with
rain showers in the area through about 15z, and then when there
are scattered showers and thunderstorms 21z-02z. Wind directions
are uncertain, but mostly a northerly component and under 10
knots. Variable gusts of 20 to 30 knots are possible (20% chance)
with the afternoon thunderstorms.

KALS...mainly VFR conditions with mid and high clouds across the
terminal into Saturday morning. A few thunderstorms will be
possible during the afternoon and early evening hours with brief
periods of reduced CIGS and VIS as they pass.
KCOS...there could be isolated showers pass near the terminal
overnight with limited impacts. CIGS near MVFR are possible
Saturday morning into the afternoon. A few showers and
thunderstorms will be possible during the mid to late afternoon and
evening with brief periods of reduced CIGS and VIS as they pass.
KPUB...some low stratus is possible by late tonight into Saturday
morning with CIGS near 5 kft. There is a low probability of showers
and thunderstorms during the late afternoon and early evening. At
this time, they look to pass north of the terminal. But, if a
thunderstorm does impact the terminal, briefly reduced CIGS and VIS
will be possible.

Low stratus and some valley fog is producing IFR conditions at
many terminals this morning. A few isolated rain showers are
winding down too as a weak disturbance clears the west side of
the Divide. Clouds and fog will burn off around 1000 MDT and
mostly clear skies are expected around the region, as we
continue to dry out. Some afternoon thunderstorms and showers
will form on the terrain. These will be short-lived, producing
some brief downpours, small hail, and gusty outflow winds. VFR
conditions will prevail outside of the mountains this afternoon and
across the region this evening to close out this TAF period.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 515 AM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
Prevailing VFR conditions will continue through the TAF period.
There are a couple of areas of showers and embedded thunder, and
these will mainly impact KWRl and KCPR through around 1400.
Patchy fog may develop in vicinity of KLND and KRIW with last
nights rain but not enough confidence to include it at this
time.
This area of showers and storms will end this morning, with
more convective development Saturday afternoon. The best chance
for impacts from convection will be at KCPR Saturday afternoon,
which is denoted by a PROB30. With the models trending a bit
wetter, we have also added PROB30 groups after 18Z in vicinity
of KWRL, KRIW and KLND, where there is around a 1 in 4 chance of
a shower or thunderstorm through around 01Z Sunday. Wind will
remain below 10 knots, outside of convective activity, tonight
through Saturday morning. Gusty wind will develop at KBPI, KPNA,
and KRKS Saturday afternoon. Dry weather should return after 03Z
Sunday.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 545 AM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
Upper level trough is forecast to push east across the high plains
today resulting in another round of showers and thunderstorms late
this morning and this afternoon. Drier weather is expected for
Sunday.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: Isolated rain showers expected this morning,
but conditions should remain VFR for most terminals. Observations
across the area show some patchy fog, but coverage has been limited
and duration has been very brief, so will keep out of the TAFs for
now. Another round of thunderstorms expected to develop around 17z
to 20z for KLAR and KCYS. These thunderstorms will move east and
southeast through the afternoon before dissipating this evening.
Kept thunderstorms out of the TAF for most western Nebraska
terminals due to low coverage and limited confidence.

For KGLD... VFR conditions are forecast, but there is the
possibility of ceilings briefly getting to 500ft through 14Z and
then to 2000ft through 17Z. Rain will remain possible through
20Z, but be mostly likely in the first few hours of the period.
Another chance for showers and storms is possible after 22Z from
the north and west. Precipitation chances should end by 06Z.
Winds should generally be from the north around 5-10 kts.
For KMCK... VFR conditions are forecast for most of the period.
There is a chance for ceilings to briefly lower to around
1500-2500ft through 18Z. Rain showers are forecast through
roughly 18Z as well, with occasional breaks. While there are low
chances for showers through the day, the better chance is
forecast to be around 03-06Z as another round of storms moves in
from the west. Once the storms pass, there is a chance for
ceilings around or below 1000ft along with the potential for
fog.

Low ceilings at LBL and DDC currently are resulting in lower flight
conditions. Showers/storms are attempting to redevelop across SW
Kansas as anticipated. If they continue to develop, they could
impact the northern three terminals with the impacts noted in the
TEMPO groups. Some modest uncertainty remains on where and how
intense this development could get. Otherwise the lower cloud cover
will erode west to east and bring reprieve to the lowered flight
conditions by around the midpoint of the TAF period. Light
southwesterly winds will weaken to light and variable during the
period.

Range from VFR to IFR cigs to start the 12Z TAF period at all TAF
sites. VFR cigs should return to all TAF sites between 18Z and 00Z
Sunday and remain VFR throughout the remainder of the TAF period.
PROB30 introduced between 00-06Z for TSRA potential, where erratic
winds could be possible. Overall, winds will be variable at 5-10
kts throughout the TAF period.

VFR conditions prevail and are forecast to persist across western NM
through the TAF period with mostly light winds. More significant
impacts are forecast across eastern NM, where MVFR and even short-
lived IFR conditions are possible in patches of low stratus
through this morning. In addition, MVFR and short-lived IFR
conditions are likely in sct/num storms across eastern NM this
afternoon and overnight. Thunderstorm outflow will combine with a
weak backdoor front to produce a gusty east canyon wind at KABQ
toward the end of the TAF period.
