A few convective showers and storms persist at this hour but as
daytime heating starts to wane, so too will this convection. Do
not expect any impacts at TAF sites but if any impacts were to
occur, the best chances would be at KASE and KEGE. Once
convection dies down, look for a quiet overnight. Tomorrow, VFR
conditions remain in place with some isolated convection
possible over the San Juans. TAF sites should be free and clear.
Generally light winds expected.

Issued at 946 PM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
Weather conditions will be very uneventful over the next 24 hours
with mostly clear skies and light wind. This can be attributed to
high pressure over the Intermountain West. There will be a northwest
breeze around 10 knots at KCPR Sunday afternoon, but elsewhere wind
will remain below 8 knots through the TAF period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 555 PM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
Showers and thunderstorms are currently affecting several terminals
with the threat continuing over the next few hours. Most of the
terminals have a PROB30 group for this activity which may
create a mixed bag of flight categories through this evening,
with lower CIGs and VIS. However, the impacts should be short
lived as the activity weakens late this evening with the sun
setting. Otherwise, expect a deck of low clouds and possibly BR
at KCDR/KAIA to develop late tonight into morning hours.
Elsewhere, CIGs should remain generally above 6K feet while
winds will range between 5 to 15 knots. Expect gusty and erratic
winds in and around any shower or thunderstorm activity.

.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.

VFR conditions to start the TAF period with light and variable
winds. MVFR/IFR conditions to return after 08z for KDHT and around
12z for KAMA. Did note a PROB30 for KAMA from 5-8z for possible
thunderstorms. May need to amend TAFs at KDHT and KGUY as probs
are low for a storm, but not impossible. VFR conditions to return
around 15z and beyond for all sites with winds mainly out of the

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 559 PM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025
Showers and thunderstorms across northeast NM this evening will
coalesce into a complex of storms diving south and east across
east central and southeast NM overnight along a backdoor cold
front. MVFR to IFR ceilings are forecasted to develop across
eastern NM in the wake of this activity. The backdoor front will
push through the gaps of the central mountain chain bringing a
gusty east canyon wind to KABQ. Right now, guidance keeps wind
gusts just under airport weather warning criteria, but these east
canyon winds will be dependent on the overall shower and
thunderstorm coverage across eastern NM. Low clouds and MVFR to
IFR ceilings will linger longest across southeast NM Sunday
morning helping to delay shower and thunderstorm development
across the south central mountains Sunday afternoon. Shower and
thunderstorm activity will favor the northern and southwest
mountains Sunday afternoon, with storms impacting the nearby
highlands and associated TAF sites like KSAF and moreso KLVS.
