AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1023 PM MST TUE JAN 13 2026
BANDS OF LIGHT PRECIPITATION ARE CURRENTLY VISIBLE NEAR AND EAST OF
THE TAF SITES, WITH KDEN JUST REPORTING -RA FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. A
WEAK COLD FRONT HAS MOVED ACROSS THE TAF SITES AND GUSTS HAVE
ALREADY LARGELY SUBSIDED OUTSIDE OF KAPA STILL GUSTING BETWEEN 15-17
KTS. CEILINGS HAVE STEADILY LOWERED BEHIND THE FRONT AS DEWPOINTS
HAVE CLIMBED ABOUT 10 DEGREES SINCE ITS PASSAGE. OUTSIDE OF MOVING
UP TIMING OF LIGHT SHOWERS AND LOWERING GUSTS, NOT MUCH ADJUSTING
WAS NEEDED FOR THIS PACKAGE. CEILINGS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO REMAIN
BETWEEN 4,000 TO 7,000 AGL THROUGH THE MORNING, WITH SOME BRIEF
LOWER CIG POSSIBLE (BETWEEN 015-020 AGL) MAINLY BETWEEN 11-13Z.
EXPECTING CEILINGS TO IMPROVE AROUND 17Z. ANY PRECIPITATION THAT
FALLS WITH PASSING SHOWERS IS EXPECTED TO BE VERY LIGHT AND SHOULD
BE OUT OF THE AREA BY AROUND 15Z. AS CLOUDS CLEAR OUT THROUGH THE
DAY AND MIXING OCCURS, WE SHOULD SEE WINDS TURN BACK TO THE NORTH
AFTER BEING LIGHT AND VARIABLE THROUGH THE MORNING. VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED AFTER 17Z WHERE THEY WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD.

ISSUED AT 950 PM MST TUE JAN 13 2026
NORTHERLY FLOW ALOFT ALLOWS FOR CONTINUED MID/HIGH CLOUD COVER TO
SWEEP SOUTH ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. CLOUD
COVER DECREASES BY MIDDAY WEDNESDAY LEAVING A MOSTLY CLEAR SKY
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. ALL TERMINALS TO BE
VFR, ALTHOUGH LOW-END VFR AT KCPR WILL FLIRT WITH MVFR AND A LIGHT
SHOWER UNTIL 10Z/WEDNESDAY. CONDITIONS AT KCPR GRADUALLY IMPROVE
BETWEEN 12Z-16Z/WEDNESDAY, AS SURFACE WIND SWITCHES TO THE SOUTHWEST
AND FAVORABLE MOISTURE SLIPS SOUTH OF THE REGION. WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON FINDS KCPR AND KRKS WITH WESTERLY 12-20KT WINDS UNTIL
AROUND 01Z/THURSDAY. KPNA COULD SEE INTERMITTENT WEST-NORTHWEST WIND
15-20KTS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, WHILE OTHER TERMINALS SEE SPEEDS LESS
THAN 8KTS. FREQUENT MOUNTAIN TOP OBSCURATIONS ALONG THE EAST SLOPES
OF THE BIGHORN RANGE AND AROUND KCPR UNTIL 15Z/WEDNESDAY.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1050 PM MST TUE JAN 13 2026
SURFACE COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO CONTINUING MOVING SOUTH AND WEST
INTO COLORADO AND CENTRAL WYOMING. BANDS OF LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW WILL
PUSH SOUTH, MAINLY IMPACTING SOUTHEAST WYOMING THROUGH 14Z EARLY
WEDNESDAY MORNING, WITH OCCASIONAL SPRINKLES OR LIGHT RAIN FOR
WESTERN NEBRASKA.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: HIGHER CONFIDENCE WITH THE SOUTHEAST WYOMING
TERMINALS TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. HIGH RES MODELS
CONTINUE TO BACK OFF ON IFR CONDITIONS AT KLAR AS THE PRECIPITATION
BAND REMAINS JUST EAST OF THE LARAMIE VALLEY. KCYS IS ALREADY
EXPERIENCING IFR CIGS, SO CONTINUED THIS TREND THROUGH AT LEAST 12Z.
OFF/ON RAIN/SNOW MIX IS EXPECTED, ESPECIALLY BETWEEN 07Z AND 12Z
WHERE IFR VIS MAY LINGER INTO SUNRISE. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO
IMPROVE BY 15Z WITH VFR AND BREEZY CONDITIONS FOR THE REST OF THE
DAY.
FOR WESTERN NEBRASKA, MOST OF THE RAINFALL HAS ENDED FOR THE NIGHT,
SO EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS WITH A
BRIEF SPRINKLES AT TIMES. SOME LOW CLOUDS AND MVFR CIGS MAY SNEAK
INTO KCDR BETWEEN 08Z AND 14Z.

LOW AND MID-LEVEL CLOUDS ARE BEGINNING TO FILL IN ACROSS NORTH
CENTRAL NEBRASKA. COVERAGE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE AS CIGS
SLOWLY LOWER OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. HAVE INTRODUCED IFR AT VTN
BUT A LARGE PORTION OF THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. HAVE ALSO
INCLUDED A TEMPO GROUP TO HIGHLIGHT -SN/-RA POTENTIAL WITH THE
DEVELOPMENT OF NARROW BANDS EXITING SOUTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA. THESE
BANDS WILL BE FAIRLY NARROW, PERHAPS 20 MILES ACROSS, AND SO
CONFIDENCE IN DIRECT IMPACTS REMAINS MEDIUM AT BEST. BELIEVE
BEST POTENTIAL STAYS EAST OF LBF SO HAVE OMITTED FOR NOW.
CEILINGS SHOULD IMPROVE BY LATE DAY WEDNESDAY WITH BOTH SITES
EXPECTED TO RETURN TO VFR.

WINDS HAVE BEEN A BIT MORE SPORADIC WITH WIND GUSTS AS OF LATE
SO HAVE TAILORED MORE TOWARDS A LLWS CONCERN FOR EACH TERMINAL
INITIALLY. GUIDANCE DOES SUGGEST THAT WINDS SHOULD INCREASE
AGAIN AROUND 08Z WITH GUSTS AROUND 25 KNOTS. IF THIS DOES NOT
OCCUR THEN LLWS WILL BE MORE OF A CONCERN LONGER. WATCHING FOR
THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE LIGHT RAIN OR DRIZZLE TO DEVELOP AROUND
12/13Z. ANY VISIBILITIES REDUCTIONS SHOULD BE MINIMAL BUT THERE
IS AN INCREASING SIGNAL FOR MVFR CONDITIONS FOR EACH TERMINAL
ALONG WITH A 20-30% CHANCE OF IFR AT MCK.
