VFR conditions are in place with the lower cloud deck at KASE
scouring out late this evening. ILS cigs remain in place at a
few sites but these too are forecast to scatter out through the
night. Residual moisture and additional moisture wrapping into
the 4 Corners region through the day tomorrow will spread
isolated to scattered showers northward with a few sites having
PROB30 groups for passing showers. At the moment VFR will
prevail with the probability of lower flight criteria too low to
put in TAF.

.AVIATION...Tuesday 18/06Z through Wednesday 19/06Z...For locations
along, west and northwest of the I-17 corridor, areas of -SHRA/SHRA
developing overnight and then continuing through the period. Upslope
locations and areas where showers are occurring will easily produce
MVFR/IFR. Winds generally light. For locations generally east of the
I-17 corridor and northeast of the central Mogollon Rim and White
Mountains, expect VFR conditions. Sfc winds S15-25kts for Tuesday
afternoon.
OUTLOOK...Wednesday 19/06Z through Friday 21/06Z...Areas -SHRA/SHRA
as well as -SHSN/SHSN (above 7500 feet) through most of the period.
Upslope locations and areas where showers are occurring will produce
MVFR/IFR. Sfc winds will not impact flight operations.

.AVIATION...KSLC...VFR conditions prevail at the terminal through
the TAF period. Increasing mid-high level cloud coverage is expected
into Tuesday, though conditions are expected to remain dry overall.
Gusty southerly winds persist through this afternoon, then become
more southeasterly and taper around 23-00z.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR conditions prevail for
most regional terminals, except KEVW where MVFR CIGS linger this
afternoon. These low clouds are expected to scour out overnight,
with mid-high level cloud coverage increasing across the airspace.
Widespread valley rain and mountain snow overspread southwest Utah
late tonight, which is expected to bring mountain obscuration and
potential for MVFR (potentially IFR at times) conditions into
Tuesday for southwest Utah terminals.

Broken to overcast VFR ceilings will persist across the area
through Tuesday morning, before lifting and/or scattering out
around 18Z. Thus, confidence for fog formation at KJAC, KBPI
and KPNA remains low. Mountain obscurations will also continue
over the western mountains through 18Z and redevelop over the
Bighorn Mountains after 12Z. These conditions will improve late
in the afternoon. SCT-BKN FL120-200 skies will then in place
through the rest of the TAF period. Winds around 25 kt will
develop at KCOD by the start of the forecast before subsiding by
10Z. Similar winds will develop at KCPR and only expected to
last between 18Z and 21Z. All other terminals will have light
winds (10 kt or less) through the forecast period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC
for the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

Areas of showers will continue to bring periods of MVFR to IFR
conditions across the region through this evening, but should be
departing overnight. Sites most likely to see precipitation
include KRWL/KBFF/KCDR/KAIA, while other sites have a chance of
a rare passing shower but too low to include in TAFs. Gusty
winds through the nighttime hours with speeds 15-25 knots and
gusts up to 40 knots expected for all WY terminals as well as
KSNY, but by tomorrow morning all sites should see winds
lessened. CIGs start on the mid to low side, producing some of
the aforementioned MVFR to IFR conditions primarily at
KRWL/KBFF/KCDR/KAIA, with clouds lifting overnight as the system
departs and precipitation exits the area. Into tomorrow
afternoon look for mid to high level clouds with winds 10 knots
or less.

Low stratus/fog will continue to expand across much of central
Nebraska this evening. This should include impacts at VTN where
IFR conditions are likely and LIFR are possible. Much drier air
should wrap in from the southwest at LBF and though MVFR CIGs
appear likely, little to no fog is expected. Conditions will
improve slightly by the afternoon Tuesday but low stratus should
continue to hamper aviation operations through the end of the
valid period.

VFR conditions will prevail at KGLD and have a 90% chance of
prevailing at KMCK through the period. KMCK will have a 20-30%
chance of seeing some sprinkles before 12Z. While this will not
impact flight categories, this could present an icing threat,
especially around 4,000-6,000 feet AGL, where 0C isotherm is
sitting.
Winds for both locations will become light and variable today as
as an inverted ridge moves through the area. Tomorrow, after 6Z,
models are becoming pretty aggressive with stratus and fog
forming near KMCK, which may impact KGLD too. If the forecast
stays on track, IFR conditions are likely at KMCK Wednesday
morning and possible at KGLD.

Batches of lower clouds (3500-5000ft above ground level) are still
lingering across portions of western to northwestern New Mexico
early this evening, but currently cloud bases are high enough to
keep conditions in the VFR category. There is a low probability
(10-30% chance) that scattered areas in western New Mexico will
observe a slight lowering of these ceilings just beneath MVFR
status (ceilings less than 3000 ft) through the early morning
Tuesday, but confidence was not high enough to include this in the
TAFs (especially at KGUP). Otherwise, high, fair weather cirrus
clouds will thicken overnight, gradually lowering with altostratus
(bases around 15,000ft) into the daytime Tuesday. Light to
moderate breezes (generally 5-15 kt) will prevail through Tuesday.
