DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0903 UTC MONDAY, JULY 27, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1155 PM MDT SUN JUL 26 2026
ISOLATED SHOWERS HAD DEVELOPED NEAR KDEN AT THE START OF THIS
PERIOD, AND ONE MORE GUSTY SOUTHWEST OUTFLOW MOVED THROUGH. WINDS
MAY SETTLE DOWN AGAIN BY 07Z-09Z AND BECOME VRB, DEPENDING ON HOW
THE CURRENT OUTFLOW REACTS WITH THE POTENTIAL NORTHERLY SURGE
MOVING SOUTH ACROSS THE NORTHEAST COLORADO PLAINS. LATER TONIGHT,
WINDS SHOULD SETTLE TO MORE OF A W-SW AT LESS THAN 10 KTS, BEFORE
TURNING MORE NORTHERLY 15Z-18Z MONDAY. AN ISOLATED LIGHT
SHOWER/SPRINKLE OR TWO IN THE VICINITY WOULD BE POSSIBLE DURING
THIS PERIOD.
WE EXPECT AN INCREASE IN CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY AS MORE MOISTURE
MOVES ACROSS THE REGION MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER,
THERE IS CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING AND LOCATION DUE TO
EXTENSIVE MID LEVEL CLOUD COVER, SLIGHT COOLING, AND CAPPING.
THUS, WE'LL MAINTAIN CONSISTENCY AT THIS POINT WITH A PERIOD OF
GUSTY WINDS (TEMPO) DUE TO -SHRA AND/OR -TSRA NEARBY ANYTIME AFTER
21Z MONDAY, POTENTIALLY LASTING INTO THE LATE EVENING BUT WITH
LOWER PROB30.

RIVERTON AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0904 UTC MONDAY, JULY 27, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1015 PM MDT SUN JUL 26 2026
CHANCES FOR LIGHT, WEAK SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE OVER SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA TO START THE TAF PERIOD, AS A
MOIST, SOUTHWEST FLOW BRINGS ANOTHER MOISTURE SURGE NORTHWARD
THROUGH THE REST OF THE NIGHT. THESE SHOWERS WILL SPREAD
NORTHWARD OVER THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS BETWEEN 10Z AND 13Z. GUSTY
OUTFLOW WIND AROUND 35KT WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE REST OF
THE MORNING WITH THESE SHOWERS. THIS MOISTURE THEN SERVES AS
THE FUEL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF DIURNAL CONVECTION BEGINNING
AROUND MID- AFTERNOON MONDAY. MANY TERMINALS SEE WIND LESS THAN
10KT, OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION, UNTIL LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON WHEN
CONVECTIVE OUTFLOWS OCCUR.
THE SHOWERS OVER THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS WILL SPREAD EAST INTO THE
CENTRAL BASINS AND OTHER POINTS EAST OF THE DIVIDE LATE IN THE
MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS LOOK TO
DEVELOP OVER THE UPPER GREEN RIVER BASIN AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS
AFTER 21Z AND MOVE TOWARD THE NORTHEAST INTO THE EVENING. WILL
KEEP THE CURRENT PROB30 GROUPS THAT ARE ALREADY IN PLACE, AS
WIDESPREAD CONVECTION IS STILL EXPECTED DURING THE AFTERNOON.
THIS MAY CHANGE DEPENDING ON HOW THE MORNING SHOWERS IMPACT THE
AFTERNOON CONVECTION.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZLC AND ZDV FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON SMOKE, ICING, AND TURBULENCE
FORECASTS.
CHEYENNE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0804 UTC MONDAY, JULY 27, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1122 PM MDT SUN JUL 26 2026
A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE TREKKING THROUGH,
IMPACTING KBFF, KCDR, AND KAIA FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. OTHERWISE,
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS ALL TERMINALS THROUGHOUT MOST
OF THIS TAF PERIOD. EXPECT BENIGN CONDITIONS THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS ACROSS ALL THE SITES WITH VARIABLE WINDS
GENERALLY 6 KNOTS OR LESS. ANOTHER SURGE OF MOISTURE WILL BEGIN
TO PUSH INTO THE AREA BY 18Z MONDAY, INCREASING THE CHANCES OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS ALL THE TERMINALS. RIGHT NOW,
FOR THIS FORECAST PERIOD, THE BEST CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS LOOK
TO IMPACT KCYS, KLAR, KBFF, AND KSNY. ELSEWHERE, CONFIDENCE IS
LOWER AND THEREFORE KEPT IT VCSH IN THIS TAF ISSUANCE.

(06Z TAFS)

AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MOVING INTO NE NM WILL TRIGGER A FEW SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE NEXT 1-3 HOURS. ELSEWHERE, STORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO DIMINISH OVER THE NEXT HOUR. ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL FAVOR THE HIGH TERRAIN MONDAY AFTERNOON,
BUT COVERAGE SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN ON SUNDAY. A FEW STORMS
WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL AND BRIEF IFR
VSBYS, BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW THAT ANY WILL DIRECTLY IMPACT A TAF
SITE ATTM. GUSTY WINDS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGER
STORMS. STORMS WILL DIMINISH AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER 06Z TUE.
