.AVIATION /00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday/...
Issued at 545 PM MDT Wed May 8 2024
VFR to prevail through the rest of the evening and into the
overnight hours. West to northwest winds to decrease after sunset
(02Z). Wind direction becomes tricky to forecast and likely
becomes variable.
Cold front pushes through the Denver area around 12Z bringing
northeast winds and low clouds (1500-2500 feet) with it. Models
still showing a somewhat large window (12-15Z) when the front
could push through. Expect ceilings to slowly rise after 18Z, but
remain under 6000 feet through Thursday. After 00Z Friday ceilings
will slowly lower. Lowest clouds/visibility and best chance for
rain showers are expected to be at BJC due to the northeast
upslope flow.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 528 PM MDT Wed May 8 2024
KALS: Mostly VFR through 24 hours. Winds will pick up by 12Z
tomorrow, remaining southeasterly through the end of the period
with mid to low-level clouds, bordering on MVFR. Showers will
move in from the adjacent higher terrain tomorrow afternoon, and
cloud ceilings will fall as showers approach the terminal.
KCOS: Winds will remain northwesterly for a few hours before
turning more northerly overnight. Clouds will increase and
ceilings will lower to near-MVFR by 12Z. Showers are expected
in the area tomorrow after 16Z or so, and will lower conditions
to MVFR. Rain showers will be possible at the terminal and could
lower visibility.
KPUB: East-northeasterly winds overnight will turn more
northerly prior to 12Z. Clouds will remain VFR but will increase
in coverage through around 16Z. Showers are expected in the area
tomorrow and may drift close to the terminal. Confidence in
precipitation directly overhead is still too low to include in
the 00Z TAFs, but clouds will sink to MVFR heights tomorrow
afternoon.

.AVIATION...Thursday 09/00Z through Friday 10/00Z...Widespread VFR
conditions and mainly light winds from variable directions are
forecast. However, northeast winds tonight could become gusty in
some spots, including KSEZ and KGCN. And, visibility reductions
are possible at KFLG, mainly overnight, due to smoke from a nearby
prescribed fire.
OUTLOOK...Friday 10/00Z through Sunday 12/00Z...Mainly VFR
conditions and light winds are forecast. A few showers and
thunderstorms are possible northeast of a KGCN- KRQE line each
day. Areas of smoke and haze are also possible.

.AVIATION...KSLC...VFR conditions remain in place through the
valid TAF period with afternoon build-ups/ low level cloud cover
decreasing during the overnight hours. Northerly winds will
decrease in speed and gradually shift to a south wind late this
evening. That said, there is a 60% chance that light and variable
winds prevail overnight. Northeast to east winds increase in speed
tomorrow afternoon.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR conditions will prevail
for a vast majority of the forecast area through the valid TAF
period, with the exception of southwest Wyoming. Near KEVW,
periods of MVFR to IFR conditions are anticipated as area snow
showers increase overnight and tomorrow morning. Otherwise, gusty
north winds are expected to develop between KCDC and KSGU tonight
and diminish by tomorrow morning, with east to northeast winds
increasing in speed across the Wasatch Front and southwest Wyoming
tomorrow. Showers will build over terrain features during the
afternoon, however, bases should remain above 5000ft AGL.

West of the Divide...KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS Terminals.
Multiple shortwaves and associated moisture will move southwest
across the region tonight and Thursday morning. Downsloping flow
should limit precipitation chances at KJAC, KBPI, and KPNA. VFR
prevails at these terminals with an outside chance of brief MVFR and
light rain or snow overnight. KRKS sees a northeast surface
wind arrive around 06Z/Thursday, which should encourage IFR/MVFR
conditions with light snow for several hours. Conditions and
ceilings improve late Thursday morning with VFR at all terminals
through the afternoon. Gusty east to northeast surface wind
15-30kts will be common at KRKS by late Thursday morning. KBPI
and KPNA see easterly wind 12-25kts develop around midday.
Mountain tops frequently obscured.
East of the Divide...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL Terminals.
Multiple shortwaves rotate southwest through the region tonight and
Thursday morning. Favorable north to northeast flow leads to upslope
precipitation at all terminals, the exception begin KWRL where
passing showers and low clouds allow -RA to linger. IFR/MVFR to
be common Wednesday evening with most areas still seeing rain.
Dynamic cooling and the loss of solar insolation should enable
light snow or a mix to develop at KCPR, KRIW, and KLND. The
upslope lingers longest at KCPR and KLND Thursday, and
conditions will be slow to improve. VFR likely does not return
on a widespread basis until 16Z-20Z/Thursday. Mountains
obscured, especially above 8K ft MSL.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

A tricky aviation forecast will begin to take shape this evening
through Thursday morning. VFR CIGs will transition to MVFR/IFR
fluctuations due to -SHRA/-SHSN, which will also create VIS
reductions at times. Winds are anticipated to be below 12 knots
overnight for all terminals, before picking up in the NE
Panhandle to 20-25 knots. Please see individual TAFs for further
information.

VFR conditions prevail through a majority of the period across
western and north central Nebraska. Scattered rain showers will
be possible across northwest and north central Nebraska,
including KVTN. Confidence remains too low on specific impacts
to the terminal at this time, thus will use VCSH for a period
this afternoon into the evening. Winds will continue out of the
north and northwest through the period with gusts 20 to 30kts
across southwest and south central Nebraska through sunset,
other locations remaining at 12kts or less. Ceilings will begin
to low to MVFR/IFR across northwest and northern Nebraska early
Thursday morning, impacting KVTN.

Breezy conditions are currently holding at all terminals this
early evening with potential to see gust nearing the 25kt mark.
These speeds could hold into the overnight with most areas not
calming till the morning hours. On the directional side, expect
all terminals to slowly transition to a more easterly direction by
Thursday morning with KGUY already seeing surface winds out of
that direction now. This transition will also correspond to
moisture and clouds building in over the terminals with a broken
cloud deck expected over the north late tonight. However, VFR
conditions should remain clear into Thursday morning with CIGs
expected to stay high on these cloud decks.

Brisk west winds will continue until several hours after sunset
when a backdoor cold front enters the state from the northeast
late this evening, accelerating south and westward during the
early morning hours Thursday. The front is forecast to move westward
through the canyons of the central mountain chain around sunrise
Thursday. East wind gusts at KABQ are forecast to reach approximately
35 kt between 09/13Z and 09/17Z, possibly resulting in an Airport
Weather Warning (AWW) for KABQ Thursday morning. MVFR ceilings
are forecast to fill in gradually behind the front Thursday
afternoon over the northern Sangre de Cristo mountains (north of
Mora County) and possibly as far northwest as the east slopes of
the Tusas mountains near the CO line.
