For KCOS..Northerly winds persist through the overnight hours,
becoming easterly by around 16Z later this morning. Easterly winds
will eventually help to enhance upslope conditions, leading to
lowered ceilings and rain showers later in the day. Most likely time
for precipitation will be from 20Z to 04Z this afternoon and this
evening, with MVFR and possible periods of IFR ceilings likely
during this timeframe as well. Northerly winds return after 04Z,
which could help to end precipitation and raise ceilings towards the
end of this TAF period for a time.
For KPUB..Northerly winds begin to turn easterly throughout the
early morning hours, with a gradual reduction in ceiling heights
throughout the day today. Expect MVFR ceilings by around 21Z this
afternoon, with vicinity showers by around that timeframe as well.
Showers on station and IFR ceilings will be likely by 01Z this
evening.
For KALS..Easterly and southeasterly winds are expected today, with
a gradual reduction in ceiling heights throughout the day today.
Expect MVFR ceilings by around 21Z this afternoon, with vicinity
showers by around that timeframe as well. Showers on station and IFR
ceilings will be likely by 02Z this evening.

.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.
A series of minor shortwaves will continue to parade across the
forecast area through midday Thursday. The north to northeast flow
aloft leads to downsloping and hinders precipitation chances at
KJAC, KBPI, and KPNA through the period. VFR prevails at these
terminals. KRKS sees a northeast surface wind gradually strengthen
between 09Z-15Z/Thursday as the pressure gradient tightens. The weak
upslope in the vicinity of KRKS combined with shortwave energy
should still lead to a period of IFR/MVFR conditions with light snow
from 08Z-14Z/Thursday. Conditions and ceilings improve at KRKS
around midday with VFR after that time. Gusty east to northeast
surface wind 20-35kts will be common at KRKS by late morning. KBPI
and KPNA see easterly wind 10-20kts develop around midday, while
KJAC sees downvalley northerly wind at similar speeds. The winds at
all terminals decrease around 02Z/Friday, with KRKS seeing breezy
conditions all evening. Mountain tops frequently obscured.
East of the Divide...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL Terminals.
A parade of shortwaves rotate southwestward through the forecast
area through midday Thursday. In general, MVFR conditions prevail
until 15Z-18Z/Thursday. The potential for IFR and light snow at KCPR
and KLND has decreased and have shifted the forecast to a TEMPO
mention with this package. The favorable north to northeast upslope
flow keeps intermittent light rain in the central basins through
late Thursday morning. There could be some breaks in the clouds
Thursday afternoon, but cold air aloft enables low-end VFR
stratocumulus to reform in the moist environment. VFR returns to all
terminals between 16Z-20Z/Thursday with the exception of KCPR, where
VFR may not return until around 00Z/Friday. Mountain tops obscured,
especially above 8-9K ft MSL through much of the period.
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.

Mostly quiet aviation conditions are expected over the next day.
Stronger winds will develop during the afternoon on Thursday, but
should remain below 20 knots. Another round of light rain showers
are expected once again across northern Nebraska on Thursday
afternoon. Any impacts should be minimal and brief. Any isolated
showers across northern Nebraska will dissipate after sunset with
VFR conditions returning to the region.

VFR conditions will likely persist with this TAF issuance. East
winds are forecast through most of the next 24 hours. Gusts during
the daytime hours could be up to 20 to 25 kts. The gusts should
drop off after 00z at the sites. High clouds are forecast to move
over the terminals. There is a low chance (10-15 percent) of a
shower or storm impacting KDHT/KGUY late in this TAF period,
confidence is not high enough to include at this time.

An upper level trough developing near the Four Corners will spread
stronger west/southwest flow aloft over NM thru Thursday. Greater
coverage of turbulence will impact the airspace as a result. A
cold front sagging southwest across eastern NM tonight will allow
mid level cigs to increase with greater potential for icing over
northeast NM thru Thursday morning. A brief period of gap winds
may impact the Rio Grande Valley with gusts near 30 kt at KABQ
near sunrise. SHRA/TS will then develop in the wake of the front
across northeast NM aft 2pm. This activity will move northeast
over the plains thru Thursday evening. A reinforcing surge of the
surface cold front will shift west into central NM after sunset
Thursday with even stronger gap winds possible at KABQ aft 8pm.
