AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 503 AM MDT TUE APR 21 2026
VFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST THROUGH AT LEAST 12Z WEDNESDAY.
WINDS REMAIN 10 KTS OR LESS THROUGH 15Z AT KCPR AND 18Z TO 21Z AT
ALL OTHER TERMINALS. AFTER THESE TIMES, WINDS INCREASE WITH FREQUENT
GUSTS BETWEEN 20KTS AND 25KTS. KRKS WILL SEE THE STRONGEST WINDS
WITH GUSTS UP TO 30KTS POSSIBLE. GUSTY WINDS LARGELY SUBSIDE BETWEEN
00Z AND 02Z, EXCEPT AT KRKS WHERE GUSTS PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. AT KRIW AND KLND THERE IS A 20 TO 30 PERCENT CHANCE THAT
GUSTY WINDS COULD PERSIST THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY. OTHERWISE, EXPECT
MID TO HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS THROUGHOUT THE TAF PERIOD.
THERE EXISTS A 15 PERCENT CHANCE OF A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM ACROSS
WESTERN WYOMING (NEAR KJAC, COD, KPNA, AND KBPI) BETWEEN 23Z TUESDAY
AND 05Z WEDNESDAY. ANY SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP WILL BE
ISOLATED IN NATURE AND BECAUSE CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN DIRECT IMPACTS,
THERE IS NO MENTION IN TAF AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER, A NEARBY SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM COULD PRODUCE GUSTY 30 TO 40 MPH OUTFLOWS.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

A LOW CLOUD DECK IS CAUSING MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS AT KAMA AND
KDHT THIS MORNING. THIS CLOUD DECK WILL DISSIPATE QUICKLY AFTER
SUNRISE LEADING TO VFR CONDITIONS FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
WINDS DURING THIS TIME WILL BE BREEZY FROM THE SOUTH. DURING THE
LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT THE LOW CLOUD DECK RETURNS FOR THE
EASTERN AND CENTRAL PANHANDLES. THIS IS MOST LIKELY TO IMPACT KAMA
WITH MVFR CONDITIONS DURING THIS TIME. THERE IS A LESSER CHANCE
FOR KGUY TO BE IMPACTED SO FOR NOW THE CLOUD BANK IS NOT INCLUDED
WITHIN THE THE TAF.
