RIVERTON AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1715 UTC THURSDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2025
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 1014 AM MST THU DEC 11 2025
THE MAIN WEATHER IMPACT THROUGH THE PERIOD CONTINUES TO BE WIND. A
COLD FRONT CLIPS THE NORTHERN PART OF WYOMING STARTING THIS EVENING,
WITH A NORTHERLY WIND SHIFT AT KCOD/KCPR/KWRL AROUND 03Z. THIS FRONT
BRINGS INCREASED CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION CHANCES, THOUGH ANY SNOW
CHANCES ARE LIMITED TO NORTHERN WYOMING, AND THUS ONLY AT KCOD. THE
NORTHERN FLOW COULD BRING LOW (MVFR TO IFR) CEILINGS AT KCOD, KCPR,
AND MAYBE KWRL THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD. CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH
IN HOW LONG THESE CLOUDS WOULD LAST, BUT CURRENT MODEL INDICATIONS
ARE ENDING THEM NEAR THE END OF THE PERIOD.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

AS THE ARCTIC FRONT SLIDES SOUTH ACROSS KCDR, KAIA, AND KBFF
LATE THIS EVENING AFTER 03Z FRIDAY, MVFR CIGS AND LIGHT

WILL BE STRONG WINDS AND PERIODS OF LLWS. GUSTS OF 45 TO 55
KNOTS ARE EXPECTED AT KRWL, KLAR, AND KCYS. WINDS AREN'T
EXPECTING TO DIMINISH MUCH UNTIL LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS
