.AVIATION /12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday/...
Issued at 421 AM MDT Sat Oct 3 2026
VFR conditions expected through the TAF period. Light and variable
winds have been persistent at KBJC and KAPA overnight tonight,
with southwesterly drainage winds observed at KDEN. We should see
winds start to turn clockwise around 15Z ahead of an approaching
cold front. North-northeasterly winds can be expected by 17Z, with
gusts between 15 to 20 kts possible through around 0Z-1Z when
winds should start to slacken and turn to the east to southeast at
KDEN. KBJC is expected to turn to the north to northwest around
2Z-3Z and become light and variable through the overnight hours.
Guidance is split on what winds will do at KAPA after around 3Z,
with them either going east to south or becoming light and
variable for a few hours before settling into a southerly
direction for the overnight hours. Either way, they are expected
to slacken enough by 2Z-3Z that whichever direction they go, there
shouldn`t be any impacts during the transition period. Winds
should start to increase for a few hours just before sunrise on
Sunday at KDEN/KAPA before becoming light and variable for the
afternoon.

KCOS, KPUB, and KALS: VFR conditions are expected for this TAF
period. However, brief periods of IFR to LIFR conditions will be
possible tonight into tomorrow morning as pockets of fog develop
around the TAF sites. While fog may impact any of the three TAF
sites, confidence is highest for KALS and KPUB. Outside of that
though, dry conditions with clear skies and relatively light winds,
around and less than 10 knots, is expected for this TAF period.

VFR conditions will continue through 12Z Sunday as ridging remains
over the area. A weak cold front will move southward East of the
Divide today and bring a wind shift to the north or northeast
following the passage. Wind should remain under 10 knots at all TAF
sites, although gusts to 25 to 30 knots will be possible in vicinity
of KBYG with gusts to 20 knots in vicinity of KGEY. The sky should
remain mostly clear through Saturday night with just some passing
high clouds.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

Low clouds with patchy areas of fog and drizzle will result in
MVFR to LIFR conditions for most areas along and east of the
central mountain chain and the upper RGV through mid this morning.
North central valley areas should stay in the MVFR category (3 to
5 mile visibility) or better, but spotty areas of IFR conditions
(1 to 3 mile visibility) cannot be ruled out (10-30% chance). Low
clouds and patchy fog will burn off late Saturday morning across
western and central areas and early Saturday afternoon across east
central and southeast areas. Mostly clear skies and light winds
prevailing the rest of today and overnight tonight. More potential
for patchy fog in and around Raton Pass Sunday morning.
