DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0530 UTC TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1130 PM MDT MON SEP 14 2026
AN INITIAL SURGE OF NORTH-NORTHEAST WINDS IS CURRENTLY PUSHING
SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE DENVER AREA TAF SITES. ANOTHER STRONGER
FRONTAL SURGE IS STILL ADVERTISED TO ARRIVE 08Z-09Z WITH GUSTY
NORTH WINDS TO 20-25 KTS. LATEST MODELS SUPPORT JUST ENOUGH LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE FOR AREAS OF STRATUS DEVELOPING BY DAYBREAK, WITH
CEILINGS POTENTIALLY IN THE 1500-2200 FT AGL RANGE. WHILE IT MAY
NOT BE WIDESPREAD, WE DO HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE FOR PREVAILING
MVFR AT KDEN ~13Z TO 17Z, AND A 40% CHANCE IT DEVELOPS BY 11Z-12Z.
A LITTLE LESS CERTAINTY AT KBJC AND KAPA SO WE'LL MAINTAIN THE
TEMPO THERE. DISSIPATION IS EXPECTED 17Z-18Z, BUT THAT ALSO
DEPENDS ON EXTENT OF MID LEVEL CLOUD DECK ALOFT. OTHERWISE,
EASTERLY FLOW COULD KEEP THE STRATUS DECK PERSISTING A COUPLE
HOURS LONGER THAN THAT. FOR TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING, VFR
CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST WITH INCREASING E-SE WINDS WITH GUSTS TO
20-25 KTS AT KDEN AND KAPA. WE'LL HAVE A CHANCE OF LIGHT SHOWERS,
BUT GIVEN STABILITY IN THE LOW LEVELS WE DON'T SEE MORE THAN A 20%
CHANCE OF WINDS BECOMING VRB WITH THOSE.
WINDS WILL TURN S-SW-W 06Z WEDNESDAY AND BEYOND. THE THREAT OF ANY
STRATUS REDEVELOPMENT LOOKS QUITE SMALL (10% CHANCE).

A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE EASTERN PLAINS OVERNIGHT,
BRINGING GUSTY NORTH WINDS OF 20-35KTS TO COS AND PUB BY 10-12Z.
WINDS GRADUALLY BECOME SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST 15-25KTS THROUGH THE
LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON ALONG WITH VFR CIGS. CURRENTLY LOOKS
TOO STABLE FOR CONVECTION AT COS AND PUB THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD,
THOUGH WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR POSSIBLE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM
MOUNTAIN STORMS.
CLEARING SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS AT ALS THIS EVENING COULD LEAD TO
IFR FOG DEVELOPING EARLY TUESDAY MORNING, HOWEVER, THERE IS NOT
ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO INCLUDE MORE THAN VCFG AT THIS TIME. BREEZY
SOUTHERLY WINDS DEVELOP AFT 18Z WITH PROB30 FOR STORMS AT THE
TERMINAL THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

ISSUED AT 955 PM MDT MON SEP 14 2026
CONDITIONS REMAIN VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD. DRIER MID-LEVEL WESTERLY
FLOW BACKS TO THE SOUTHWEST TUESDAY ALLOWING FOR MOISTURE TO
INCREASE FROM THAT DIRECTION. NOTHING MORE THAN CIRRUS CLOUDS
THROUGH THE MORNING, BUT CUMULUS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS SOUTHWEST
WYOMING, INCLUDING AROUND KRKS, BY MID-AFTERNOON TUESDAY. THE
TREND IS FOR ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE VICINITY
OF KRKS AFTER 23Z/TUESDAY. THE MOISTURE DEEPENS TOWARD
06Z/WEDNESDAY AND CONVECTIVE COVERAGE INCREASES. AT THIS RANGE,
HAVE NOT INCLUDED ANY MENTION OF SHOWERS/STORMS IN SOUTHWEST
TERMINALS GIVEN HIT-AND-MISS NATURE OF THIS CONVECTION. AS FOR
WIND, TERMINALS WEST OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE SEE WEST TO
SOUTHWEST SURFACE WIND 10-20KTS DEVELOP BETWEEN 20Z-22Z/TUESDAY
AS MIXING OCCURS. THESE WINDS DIMINISH JUST AFTER SUNSET
TUESDAY. EAST OF THE DIVIDE, AN EASTERLY SURFACE WIND 6-10KTS
PREVAILS, WITH KCPR SEEING GUSTS TO 20KTS TOWARD 00Z/WEDNESDAY.

ISSUED AT 1100 PM MDT MON SEP 14 2026
IFR AND POTENTIALLY VLIFR CEILINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR KMCK AND
ARE EXPECTED FOR KGLD THIS MORNING. A COLD FRONT WILL BE PUSHING
IN THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS, BRINGING WITH IT A WAVE OF
LOW STRATUS, A 30% CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR KGLD, AND A 15% CHANCE
OF FOG FOR BOTH KMCK AND KGLD. WITH THE FRONT, EXPECT WINDS TO
RAPIDLY BECOME NORTHEASTERLY AND INCREASE IN SPEED. LIKELY WIND
GUSTS WILL BE IN THE 25-35 KTS RANGE, BUT WE CANNOT RULE OUT
SOME GUSTS UP TO 45 KTS. CEILINGS WILL GRADUALLY LIFT BACK TO
VFR DURING THE MORNING AND BY THE MID-AFTERNOON, WINDS WILL HAVE
WEAKENED SOME. TUESDAY NIGHT, STRATUS LOOKS TO RETURN FOR BOTH
SITES.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 120 AM CDT TUE SEP 15 2026
DIFFICULT AVIATION WEATHER COMING UP LATER TODAY WITH WIND SHIFT
TIMING ISSUES, HOW STRONG GUSTS WILL BE BEHIND THE SURFACE FRONT,
HOW QUICKLY CEILING WILL FALL THROUGH MVFR DOWN INTO IFR (LATE
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING), AND WHETHER WE GET ENOUGH SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO CARRY PROB30 THUNDER. THERE IS ENOUGH
CONFIDENCE TO INCLUDE PROB30 THUNDER AT HYS EARLY TO MID AFTERNOON
BUT KEPT GCK, DDC, AND LBL DEVOID OF THUNDER FOR NOW. THERE IS HIGH
ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN WIDESPREAD LOW STRATUS WITH THE FRONT, AND MOST
AIRPORTS WILL FALL INTO MVFR CATEGORY NOT LONG AFTER THE INITIAL
WIND SHIFT TO THE NORTHEAST AT GCK AND HYS. THE STRATUS MAY COME TO
A HALT FOR A TIME THIS AFTERNOON AS THE LEADING EDGE MAY ERODE SOME
WITH INSOLATION, BUT ONCE THE SUN ANGLE LOWERS AGAIN EARLY THIS
EVENING, JUST ABOUT ALL LOCATIONS SHOULD FALL WELL INTO IFR AT SOME
POINT TUESDAY NIGHT.

(06Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 1215 AM CDT TUE SEP 15 2026
BRIEF MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE TO START THE TAF PERIOD AT KAMA
AS STORMS REMAIN OVER THE AREA, BUT THAT SHOULD BE DONE BY 7Z.
OTHERWISE, MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH AT LEAST 21Z.
WINDS WILL STILL BE A BIT BREEZY OUT OF THE SOUTH, SHIFTING MORE
WEST TO NORTHWEST AT KDHT AND KGUY AFTER 14Z. ONCE WE GET TO THE
18-21Z TIME FRAME THAT'S WHEN WE EXPECT SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
STORMS TO POP ACROSS THE PANHANDLES. THIS WILL RESULT IN POSSIBLE
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS AT ALL TAF SITES, AND PROB30'S HAVE BEEN NOTED
TO COVER THESE STORMS.

A BROAD AREA OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL FOCUS OVER SOUTHWEST AND
SOUTH CENTRAL AREAS THROUGH THE NIGHT, WITH ISOLATED ACTIVITY
ELSEWHERE. COVERAGE WILL GENERALLY DECREASE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS THEN TREND HIGHER AGAIN AROUND 18Z TUESDAY. WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL FAVOR CENTRAL AND WESTERN AREAS, WITH
STORM MOTIONS AROUND 10 KNOTS TOWARDS THE NORTH. CONFIDENCE FOR
THE SPECIFIC TIME WINDOW THAT TAF SITES WILL BE IMPACTED IS LOW
AT THIS TIME AND ADDITIONAL MENTION OF STORMS MAY BE ADDED FOR THE
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT PERIOD IN FUTURE UPDATES.
PATCHY MVFR TO IFR CIGS AND VISIBILITY MAY DEVELOP IN PORTIONS OF
WESTERN AND CENTRAL NM TONIGHT INTO MID-MORNING TUESDAY.
CONFIDENCE IN COVERAGE IS LOW, BUT AREAS THAT RECEIVED A SOAKING
RAINFALL MONDAY WILL BE FAVORED.
