DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0726 UTC WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1143 PM MDT TUE MAY 19 2026
LIGHT RAIN AND MIST WILL CONTINUE NEAR THE TAF SITES THROUGH THE
EARLY MORNING. RAIN WILL LIKELY CLEAR OUT OF THE KBJC AREA FIRST
AND KAPA LAST. WE'LL SEE A BRIEF BREAK IN RAIN CHANCES IN THE MID
TO LATE MORNING, BEFORE THEY RETURN. SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO FORM IN THE AREA AROUND 17Z TO 19Z AND THEN PROGRESS
EASTWARD OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. THIS WILL BE THE BEST
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR SOME
LINGERING RAIN AFTER THE INITIAL PUSH, BUT MODELS ARE STARTING TO
TREND FURTHER SOUTH WITH THAT ACTIVITY, SO THE BEST CHANCE FOR
ADDITIONAL RAIN IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL BE AT KAPA. MVFR
CIGS ARE PRESENT THIS EVENING AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TOMORROW
MORNING, BEFORE THEY START TO LIFT AROUND 14Z TO 16Z TO LOW END
VFR FOR THE AFTERNOON (4000FT TO 6000FT).

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1102 PM MDT TUE MAY 19 2026
KCOS AND KPUB: MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH MOST OF
THIS TAF PERIOD AS THICK LOW LEVEL CLOUDS PERSIST AND KEEP CEILING
HEIGHTS LOW. IN ADDITION, ONGOING RAIN IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO
THE PORTIONS OF THE OVERNIGHT HOURS, WHICH WILL BRING REDUCED
VISIBILITIES AS WELL. THIS RAIN IS EXPECTED TO END BY EARLY MORNING,
WITH DRY CONDITIONS LASTING INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. WITH THAT
SAID, SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE AGAIN ANTICIPATED TO PUSH OVER
THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND TOWARD THE TAF SITES. THESE SHOWERS AND
STORMS MAY BRING BRIEF PERIODS OF REDUCED VISIBILITIES AND SUDDEN
INCREASE IN WINDS. OTHERWISE, WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO REMAIN AROUND
AND LESS THAN 10 KNOTS THROUGH THIS TAF PERIOD.
KALS: VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. WHILE DRY
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THIS TAF PERIOD, RAIN SHOWERS WILL
BE AROUND WITH THE SAN LUIS VALLEY TONIGHT, AND THESE MAY IMPACT THE
TAF SITE, BRINGING SLIGHTLY REDUCED VISIBILITIES IF SO. WINDS WILL
REMAIN LIGHT, AT AND LESS THAN 10 KNOTS, THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING,
WITH WINDS QUICKLY INCREASING IN MAGNITUDE TOMORROW AFTERNOON AS
DIURNAL MIXING DEVELOPS. OTHERWISE, LOW TO MID LEVEL CLOUDS WILL
STEADILY RISE IN HEIGHTS THROUGH TOMORROW.

A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STRETCHING ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS AND
COLORADO IS PUSHING CLOUD COVER NORTHEAST OVER THE TERMINALS
THIS MORNING. THIS WILL KEEP SOME UPPER LOW TO MID LEVEL CLOUDS
IN THE CEILINGS. KASE COULD SEE BREAKPOINTS WITH SHOWER
DEVELOPMENT EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING, BUT STILL A LOW CHANCE WITH
PROB30 LANGUAGE ONLY AT THIS TIME. THIS TREND WILL HOLD TRUE
AGAINST THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE WEDNESDAY, WITH A FEW SHOWERS
FORMING ON THE TERRAIN. MOISTURE REMAINS RATHER WEAK THOUGH, SO
NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD AVIATION CONCERNS. GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS
WILL BE A CONCERN FOR VALLEY TERMINALS(KTEX, KGUC) NEAR TERRAIN
BASED SHOWERS. AFTERNOON WINDS WILL GUST AROUND 20 MPH ACROSS
THE REGION WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THEN SIT DOWN AROUND SUNSET. VFR
CONDITIONS WILL CLOSE OUT THIS PERIOD, AS MODELS HINT AT PUSHING
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY EASTWARD WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STRETCHING ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS AND
COLORADO IS PUSHING CLOUD COVER NORTHEAST OVER THE TERMINALS
THIS MORNING. THIS WILL KEEP SOME UPPER LOW TO MID LEVEL CLOUDS
IN THE CEILINGS. KASE COULD SEE BREAKPOINTS WITH SHOWER
DEVELOPMENT EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING, BUT STILL A LOW CHANCE WITH
PROB30 LANGUAGE ONLY AT THIS TIME. THIS TREND WILL HOLD TRUE
AGAINST THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE WEDNESDAY, WITH A FEW SHOWERS
FORMING ON THE TERRAIN. MOISTURE REMAINS RATHER WEAK THOUGH, SO
NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD AVIATION CONCERNS. GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS
WILL BE A CONCERN FOR VALLEY TERMINALS(KTEX, KGUC) NEAR TERRAIN
BASED SHOWERS. AFTERNOON WINDS WILL GUST AROUND 20 MPH ACROSS
THE REGION WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THEN SIT DOWN AROUND SUNSET. VFR
CONDITIONS WILL CLOSE OUT THIS PERIOD, AS MODELS HINT AT PUSHING
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY EASTWARD WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

WEST OF THE DIVIDE...KJAC/KRKS/KPNA/KBPI TERMINALS
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT BACKS TO THE WEST AS A SHORTWAVE DROPS SOUTH
TOWARD THE FORECAST AREA LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. WEAK SHOWERS
DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS 19Z-21Z/WEDNESDAY AND MOVE EAST INTO THE
BASINS AND VALLEYS AROUND KJAC AND KBPI. ANY IMPACTS WOULD BE BRIEF
AND CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE PROB30, WITH KJAC BEING
THE MOST LIKELY TERMINAL. SHORTWAVE ENERGY AND DEEPER MOISTURE
REACHES NORTHWEST WYOMING AROUND KJAC LATE IN THE PERIOD, SO A
PROB30 GROUP HAS BEEN ADDED BEGINNING AT 04Z/THURSDAY. IN GENERAL,
CLOUD COVER INCREASES AND BEGINS TO SLOWLY LOWER AFTER 00Z/THURSDAY.
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WESTERLY SURFACE WIND 10-18KTS DECREASES TO 7-
10KTS AROUND 02Z/THURSDAY. MOUNTAIN TOPS OCCASIONALLY OBSCURED AFTER
00Z/THURSDAY OVER NORTHWEST WYOMING.
EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCPR/KCOD/KRIW/KLND/KWRL TERMINALS
ALL TERMINALS TO BE VFR THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. WEAK SHOWERS
DEVELOP OVER THE ABSAROKA AND WIND RIVER RANGES 19Z-21Z/WEDNESDAY
AND SLOWLY TRACK EAST INTO THE BASINS DURING THE AFTERNOON. IMPACTS
ARE LIKELY TO BE CONFINED TO GUSTY OUTFLOW WIND 25-35KTS, WITH
CONVECTION AROUND KCOD THE MOST LIKELY TO PRODUCE THESE GUSTS.
OTHERWISE, KCPR TO SEE 10-18KT WESTERLY WIND DURING THE DAY WITH
OCCASIONAL LATE DAY WESTERLY WIND 9-13KTS AT KRIW AND KLND. THE
ARRIVAL OF MORE ROBUST SHORTWAVE ENERGY IN NORTHWEST WYOMING LEADS
TO A BETTER CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS AT KCOD LATE IN THE PERIOD.
THIS SHORTWAVE WILL BEGIN TO PUSH A COLD FRONT ACCOMPANIED BY
NORTHERLY SURFACE WIND THROUGH THE BIGHORN BASIN AFTER ABOUT
03Z/THURSDAY. MOUNTAIN TOPS OBSCURED AFTER 00Z/THURSDAY IN THE
ABSAROKA RANGE.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZLC AND ZDV FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

LIGHTER WINDS, GENERALLY LESS THAN 10 KNOTS, WILL CONTINUE FOR THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS ACROSS ALL TERMINALS. IN ADDITION, PRECIPITATION
CHANCES WILL INCREASE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS AT KCYS AND THEN
SPREAD EASTWARD INTO THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE BETWEEN 12 AND 15Z, WITH
KAIA AND KSNY HAVING THE BEST CHANCES. THIS PRECIPITATION WILL BRING
IN LOWER CIGS AND REDUCED VIS, WHICH COULD MAKE FLIGHT CATEGORIES
DIP DOWN TO MVFR AND/OR IFR CONDITIONS. WINDS WILL RAMP UP AGAIN,
STARTING AROUND 12Z ACROSS SOUTHEAST WYOMING AND BETWEEN 15 AND 18Z
FOR THE NEBRASKA SITES. SO, EXPECT GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASING
TO 20-30 KNOTS. WITH THE ADDED MOISTURE THAT WE'VE SEEN ACROSS
SOUTHEAST WYOMING OVER THE PAST DAY OR SO, BR/FG ONCE AGAIN MAY BE
POSSIBLE, GREATEST CHANCE AT KRWL AND KCYS TONIGHT.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1253 AM CDT WED MAY 20 2026
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE PERIOD
WITH DEGRADED CONDITIONS FOR LATE MORNING WEDNESDAY.
MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS CONTINUE TO STREAM IN TO SOUTHWEST
NEBRASKA BUT SHOULD POSE LITTLE IF ANY IMPACT INITIALLY. THROUGH
THE NIGHT, CIGS SHOULD LOWER AS A DISTURBANCE APPROACHES FROM
THE WEST. THIS SHOULD LEAD TO INCREASING PRECIPITATION CHANCES
AND MVFR CIGS. LEANED ON HREF GUIDANCE FOR TIMING INTO LBF
TERMINAL WHICH FAVORS MID TO LATE MORNING. ACTIVITY SHOULD
REMAIN LIGHT ENOUGH INTENSITY TO PRECLUDE MORE SIGNIFICANT
IMPACTS. EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO DEPART BY LATE AFTERNOON WITH A
RETURN TO VFR CONDITIONS LIKELY.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1145 PM MDT TUE MAY 19 2026
GLD: VFR CONDITIONS ARE ANTICIPATED TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD, WITH CEILINGS AT OR ABOVE ~6,000 FT AGL. SE WINDS AT
7-12 KNOTS WILL INCREASE TO 12-15 KNOTS W/GUSTS TO ~20 KNOTS A
FEW HOURS AFTER SUNRISE AND PERSIST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. WINDS
WILL BACK TO THE ESE-E AND DECREASE TO 10-12 KNOTS AFTER
SUNSET, NEAR THE END OF THE 06Z TAF PERIOD.
MCK: VFR CONDITIONS ARE ANTICIPATED TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD, WITH CEILINGS AT OR ABOVE ~5,000 FT AGL. THERE IS LOW
PROBABILITY (~30%) FOR MVFR CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH SHOWERS
AFTER SUNRISE, MAINLY BETWEEN ~12-16Z. SE WINDS AT 5-10 KNOTS
WILL MODESTLY INCREASE TO 10-13 KNOTS A FEW HOURS AFTER SUNRISE
AND PERSIST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BACK TO THE ESE-E
AFTER SUNSET, NEAR THE END OF THE 06Z TAF PERIOD.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1137 PM CDT TUE MAY 19 2026
VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD ALTHOUGH LOWERED
FLIGHT CONDITIONS MAY OCCUR NEAR THE END OF THE PERIOD. MOSTLY WEAK
SURFACE HIGHS ALOFT ARE PRESENT TO START THE PERIOD; LIGHT WINDS (5-
15 KTS) OUT OF THE EAST ARE FORECAST TO CONTINUE. BY AROUND 2Z,
LOWERED CLOUD COVER AND SCATTERED SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED AT OR AROUND
ALL STATIONS. PRIOR TO 6Z, ENSEMBLES KEEP CHANCES FOR <3K FT
CEILINGS AND PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION BELOW 50%. HOWEVER, IT IS
VERY FEASIBLE THAT ONE MORE MULTIPLE SITES MAY SEE LOWERED FLIGHT
CONDITIONS IN THE TAF PERIOD OWING TO ONE OR BOTH OF THESE
CONDITIONS AND FUTURE AVIATION FORECASTS WILL HAVE MORE REFINED
GUIDANCE.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 1249 AM CDT WED MAY 20 2026
VFR CONDITIONS TONIGHT WILL BECOME MVFR LATER THIS MORNING. THE
NATIONAL BLEND OF MODELS GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT IFR CEILINGS WILL
BEGIN NEAR SUNRISE AND LINGER THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THE HIGHEST
CONFIDENCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY EXISTS FOR KAMA, SO PROB30
HAS BEEN ADDED FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING PERIOD. ELSEWHERE,
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE BUT CHANCES ARE MUCH LOWER FOR IMPACTS
AT THIS TIME. MVFR CEILINGS SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE MAJORITY
OF THE REMAINING 06Z TAF PERIOD.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 1120 PM MDT TUE MAY 19 2026
A SURGE OF EASTERLY WINDS ARE PUSHING THEIR THRU THE GAPS OF THE
CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN THIS HOUR, ALREADY HAVING PRODUCED STRONG
SOUTHEASTERLY GUSTS AT KSAF >40KTS. BASED ON ABX RADAR
OBSERVATIONS, IT IS CURRENTLY PUSHING THRU TIJERAS CANYON TOWARD
KABQ AND IS EXPECTED TO SURPASS 35KTS B/W 06Z TO 10Z AT TIMES WHEN
AN AIRPORT WEATHER WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR. OTHERWISE, THE
MAIN AVIATION IMPACTS LOOK TO BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF IFR/MVFR
CEILINGS OR EVEN ISOLATED LIFR CEILINGS ACROSS EASTERN NM TONIGHT
AND THRU WEDNESDAY MORNING. THERE IS CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY
WITH HOW PERSISTENT THESE LOWER CEILINGS WILL BE THROUGH THE DAY
WEDNESDAY. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS ALSO LIKELY OVER
PORTIONS OF NM, NOTABLY SOUTHEASTERN NM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, BUT
TO WHAT DEGREE, COVERAGE, AND INTENSITY IS HIGHLY UNCERTAIN. TAF
AMDS WILL LIKELY BE NECESSARY FOR KROW BECAUSE OF THIS
UNCERTAINTY, AND WILL BE DICTATED BY WHEN LOW CEILINGS CLEAR OR
NOT CLEAR.
