.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 516 PM MDT Thu May 9 2024
An upper low will retrograde and linger over UT and northern AZ
through the forecast period, producing a predominant easterly
flow aloft across the entire area. This will aid in thickening
and lowering cloud cover, as well as widespread pcpn and a
lowering snow level.
Current conditions along much of the I-25 Corridor including
KCOS and KPUB, are VFR but are expected to deteriorate to
MVFR/IFR between 02z and 04z this evening. Showers to develop
between 02z and 04z and will last through 15z-17z Friday.
MVFR/IFR conditions with intermittent -SHRA exist at KALS and
will continue through the period. Rain to mix with snow, and
possibly switch over to all snow, around 03z-04z this evening.
Snow will likely accumulate on grassy surfaces, but there is the
possibility of higher amounts during the overnight period. Moore

Perhaps MVFR conditions are briefly possible. Similar weather

Salt Lake City Aviation Discussion
Issued at 2207 UTC Thursday, May 9, 2024
.AVIATION...KSLC...Gusty winds up to 30kts will continue at KSLC
through at least 02z, though these winds will likely vary between
northwesterly and east-northeasterly. Between 02-04z, winds will
transition to light and westerly (70% chance)...with low-level wind
shear also becoming a threat, given 40kt winds at 2000ft AGL. During
the overnight hours, there is a 30% chance of occasional strong
gusts out of the east due to downslope winds.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Downslope winds will be the
main threat along the central and northern Wasatch Front and in the
eastern Cache Valley. Strong easterly wind gusts will occur through
the afternoon, especially at KOGD and KLGU. Easterly wind gusts will
likely continue overnight at KOGD, however there is a low (20%)
chance that winds transition to light and westerly, producing LLWS.
Confidence is even lower in the winds overnight at KLGU. Strong
easterly winds are more likely to persist...at least through 06z,
but at times winds may become light (also with LLWS concerns). Winds
are looking more likely to become light out of the west after ~06z.
Thunderstorms are also a concern this afternoon through 03z across
much of the area, particularly across higher terrain, with a 20%
chance of thunder at many sites. Gusty and erratic outflow winds
will be possible near these storms...notably at KPVU and KBCE.

Issued at 515 PM MDT Thu May 9 2024
The large upper level circulation continues to bring a series of weak
shortwaves to the region. These will promote northeast flow,
scattered showers, and widespread mountain obscurations through the
period. KJAC is the only terminal to see VFR conditions and mostly
clear skies prevail through the period. MVFR conditions to
occasional IFR conditions are possible at all other terminals. Other
west of the Divide terminals, particularly KBPI and KPNA will see
the lowest chance for MVFR, and thus are expected to remain VFR
through the period, with BKN cigs around FL035 returning after 06Z.
KRKS has a 30% chance of seeing MVFR conditions after 06Z as well.
Low clouds will prevail through much of the period east of the
Divide, with lowest cigs at KCPR and KLND. Other east of the Divide
terminals (KCOD, KRIW, and KWRL) will see occasional VFR, especially
at KCOD and KWRL overnight, but otherwise will also generally see
prevailing MVFR conditions. TEMPO and PROB30 groups have been
included to highlight most likely periods of prevailing
-RA and/or IFR conditions. Skies finally begin to scatter out
Friday afternoon, and VFR conditions should prevail everywhere
after 18Z Friday.

This evening we will continue to see scattered rain showers
across the region. Most terminals will experience low-end VFR,
with fluctuations to MVFR when -SHRA moves over the terminals
temporarily. After 6Z, southeast WY terminals will see an
increase in weak upslope flow. This will cause terminals to
fluctuate between IFR/MVFR from CIG and VIS reductions. Highest
confidence for aviation impacts will be KLAR where FG is
anticipated after 10Z, and LIFR conditions until 14Z/15Z. The NE
Panhandle terminals are expected to see low-end VFR overnight
into Friday.

Scattered virga showers will continue through the evening hours
across north central and east central NM and will be associated
with strong/erratic wind gusts. A backdoor front will progress
southwest across the area overnight and bring a strong east
canyon wind to KABQ, with gusts up to 47kts forecast. An Airport
Weather Warning for KABQ for those strong east canyon winds will
be issued shortly. Gradual deterioration is forecast overnight
across much of eastern and some of north central NM and will
result in areas of MVFR cigs, which will be slow to improve
Friday. Strong east-southeast winds will prevail through the day
at KABQ/KAEG and KSAF Friday, but will trend down through the day
before popping back up Friday evening after the end of this TAF
cycle.
