.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday/...
Issued at 1217 PM MDT Fri Oct 10 2025
A DCVZ has setup to the east of the Denver metro. For most of the
afternoon, this boundary will be stationary with northwest or
northerly winds at all terminals. However, there is a chance that
this boundary moves northwestward towards APA and DEN. If this
were to occur, gusty southeast winds would develop at both
terminals. While the HRRR and other models have this boundary
pushing through the terminals, it seems unlikely it will until the
evening.
Otherwise, light showers will be near the airports throughout the
TAF period. These are high level showers and will have very little
impact at the surface. There will be drainage winds tonight that
will increase out of the southwest during the day tomorrow.

At KALS, VFR the next 24 hrs with periods of showers possible
overnight and Saturday. Most precipitation will stay north and
west of the terminal today, so for now won`t include any vcsh
this afternoon. Cigs gradually lower late this afternoon and
overnight as moisture increases, with vcsh after 02z, and
prevailing -shra after 14z. Expect s-sw winds the next 24 hrs,
mainly under 12 kts.
At KPUB and KCOS, VFR the next 24 hrs, with gradually lowering
cigs late this afternoon and overnight. Low risk of a shra over
the higher terrain north/west of KCOS, though expect activity to
remain too far away from the terminal to include a mention at
this point. Winds will follow a weak diurnal pattern through the
period.

Issued at 1137 AM MDT Fri Oct 10 2025
We are in the middle of a strong surge of tropical moisture,
bringing widespread impacts from rainfall and dense cloud cover.
Aside from KVEL and KCNY, all terminals have the potential to
fall below ILS breakpoints at some point within the next 24
hours. Conditions will reach their worst tomorrow afternoon with
most terminals expected to reach MVFR or IFR conditions due to
reduced vis and low cigs. Mountain obscuration will also be a
concern throughout this event. Winds are expected to remain on
the lighter side throughout the TAF period though.

Issued at 1137 AM MDT Fri Oct 10 2025
We are in the middle of a strong surge of tropical moisture,
bringing widespread impacts from rainfall and dense cloud cover.
Aside from KVEL and KCNY, all terminals have the potential to
fall below ILS breakpoints at some point within the next 24
hours. Conditions will reach their worst tomorrow afternoon with
most terminals expected to reach MVFR or IFR conditions due to
reduced vis and low cigs. Mountain obscuration will also be a
concern throughout this event. Winds are expected to remain on
the lighter side throughout the TAF period though.

.AVIATION...Friday 10/18Z through Saturday 11/18Z...A persistent
plume of sub-tropical moisture will continue produce areas of -SHRA
and pockets of +SHRA/TSRA through the period. Expect MVFR/IFR and
even small areas of LIFR in the precipitation areas. Outside of
precipitation, mainly VFR with CIGS from 5-10kft AGL. Sfc generally
light and not expected to affect flight operations. Terminal KINW
has no observations.
OUTLOOK...Saturday 11/18Z through Monday 13/18Z...Continued areas
of -SHRA and pockets of +SHRA/TSRA or +TSRA continue through 08Z-12Z
Sunday, before slowly becoming mainly VFR for the remainder of the
period. ISOLD-SCT -SHRA/-TSRA still possible Sunday/Monday afternoon.
Sfc winds S-SW10-20kts, mainly in the daytime hours.

Salt Lake City Aviation Discussion
Issued at 2059 UTC Friday, October 10, 2025
.AVIATION...KSLC...Low chances for thunderstorms exist through
roughly 01z; any storms that do develop will be capable of producing
lightning and heavy rain, with brief periods of MVFR conditions (10%
chance of brief IFR conditions) and squirrely winds. Chances for
more showers and isolated thunderstorms return overnight, though
uncertainty in exact timing is high since KSLC will be on the
northern fringe of these showers. Periods of moderate to heavy rain
will be possible with these showers. Stronger thunderstorms are
likely to develop Saturday afternoon ahead of a strong cold front.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Showers and thunderstorms will
develop this afternoon and evening across much of Utah and southwest
Wyoming, with the main threats being heavy rain and MVFR-IFR
VIS/CIGs. After ~02z, most of this rainfall will become more
widespread but less intense, particularly over S-UT. Across N-UT/SW-
WY, forecast confidence is lower with when/if areas receive rainfall
overnight, with generally higher chance further south. Winds will
remain primarily southerly, though valleys may see light and
variable winds overnight. By Saturday afternoon, stronger
thunderstorms are expected to develop ahead of a strong cold front.

General clearing continues through the evening behind the showers
from this morning and afternoon from west to east, with generally
prevailing light winds.
Saturday morning, the next wave of moisture moves into the region.
Impacts are generally expected to be limited and focused west of the
Divide (KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS Terminals) through the morning,
spreading east of the Divide into the afternoon. Occasional MVFR
conditions are possible (20% chance) at west of the Divide terminals
Saturday with the shower activity. Locally heavy rain and small hail
are possible with the showers and thunderstorms as well.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

A pretty robust plume of moisture is moving northeast into our CWA,
bringing with it a blanket of clouds and rain showers. The latest
RADAR scans show showers moving northeast, but currently south of
KLAR. These showers will push into our area and slide east through
the day, affecting all terminals except KCDR. There is a slight
possibility of a few embedded thunderstorms, very isolated in nature,
that may develop this evening. As such, for KSNY I included a PROB30
group for TS. CIGs will not be an issue as they should remain above
5K feet while all terminals will have southerly winds. Expect gusty
and erratic winds in or near any shower or thunderstorm activity.
Across the Nebraska Panhandle, winds will pick up this afternoon/evening
where KCDR may see winds gusting 30 to 35 knots.

For KGLD & KMCK... VFR conditions are forecast through the
period. cloud cover about 12000ft is forecast for most of the
period with moisture streaming over the Rockies. There could be
a few showers tonight, but most of them should stay west of the
terminals. The fog potential tonight is currently below 10% as
cloud cover and winds remaining around 10 kts should keep
dewpoint depressions high enough that fog or low cloud ceilings
shouldn`t be able to form. Tomorrow, a surface low pressure
system is forecast to deepen along the Front Range, increasing
winds speeds to around 20kts with gusts potentially up to
35-40kts from the south.

back north overnight.

Drier weather remain present today thanks to the high pressure
system still building over the area. All terminals are expected
to remain at VFR conditions for the day, but some high cloud cover
may push in overnight as remnants from shower activity expected
to occur west of us in New Mexico.
