WINDS WILL BE WEAK THIS EVENING BUT WILL TREND TOWARDS DRAINAGE
TONIGHT. A VERY WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE OVER COLORADO ON
THURSDAY. THERE WILL BE MID TO HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS THROUGHOUT THE
DAY AND THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS BASICALLY AT
ANY POINT DURING THURSDAY OR THURSDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER, THESE
SHOWERS WILL BE VERY LIGHT AND WILL NOT HAVE MUCH OF AN IMPACT OF
LANDING AND TAKEOFFS. THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR RAIN SHOWERS WILL
BE 22-04Z THURSDAY EVENING SO THE PROB30 WAS MOVED BACK TO ACCOUNT
FOR THAT. CEILINGS BETWEEN 5,000-7,000 FEET ARE POSSIBLE DURING
SHOWERS.
OTHERWISE, WINDS DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY THROUGH MUCH OF
THURSDAY EVENING WILL BE SOUTHEASTERLY. SPEEDS WILL GENERALLY STAY
BELOW 15 KNOTS.

THROUGH 00Z. WINDS WILL REMAIN FROM THE SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST, BUT BE
LIGHTER AFTER 00Z. LARGELY DRY CONDITIONS WITH BROKEN TO OVERCAST
CLOUDS WILL PREVAIL, ALTHOUGH SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE CAPABLE
OF LOWERING CONDITIONS INTO MVFR RANGE FOR SHORT DURATIONS FROM 03-
12Z. MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE, BUT DRY CONDITIONS WILL

BROKEN TO OVERCAST CLOUDS IN VFR RANGE WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD. SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL BE MOST COMMON DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL, BUT RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE CAPABLE
OF LOWERING CONDITIONS INTO MVFR RANGE FOR SHORT DURATIONS. SNOW
SHOWERS FOR SOUTHWEST WYOMING WILL BE CAPABLE OF LIFR OR IFR

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 443 PM MST WED FEB 11 2026
A PERSISTENT FETCH OF SNOW THAT HAS TRACKED EAST ACROSS KJAC
MUCH OF THE DAY IS FINALLY SHOWING SIGNS OF DIMINISHING AND
LIFTING SLIGHTLY NORTH LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. SNOW LINGERS
INTO THE EARLY EVENING BEFORE CONDITIONS GRADUALLY BECOME VFR.
KPNA/KBPI EITHER SEE LOW-END VFR OR MVFR CONDITIONS DUE TO
LOWERED CEILINGS. THE PRIMARY OVERNIGHT CONCERN WILL BE
LINGERING LOWERED CEILINGS. RECENT MODELS HAVE TRENDED TOWARDS A
LESSER CHANCE OF THESE LOW CEILINGS OCCURRING ESPECIALLY AT
KPNA AND KBPI, WHERE SNOWFALL HAS BEEN LESSER THAN ORIGINALLY
FORECAST. HOWEVER, KJAC MAY SEE THESE LOW CLOUDS LINGER,
CREATING MVFR TO POSSIBLY IFR CEILINGS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
INTO THE MORNING ON THURSDAY. THE EXCESS SNOWFALL THAT FELL
THROUGH THE DAY WEDNESDAY MAY FURTHER INCREASE THESE ODDS.
ANOTHER PUSH OF MOISTURE MAKES ITS WAY BACK INTO WESTERN WYOMING
THURSDAY MORNING WITH KRKS INITIALLY SEEING THE BEST CHANCE BY
SUNRISE INTO THURSDAY MORNING. OTHER TERMINALS HAVE MUCH LOWER
CONFIDENCE IN REGARDS TO PRECIPITATION AS THE MOISTURE
GENERALLY SKIRTS SOUTHWEST WYOMING. WINDS REMAIN LIGHT WITH
MINIMAL IMPACTS ACROSS ALL TERMINALS. MOUNTAIN TOPS OBSCURED.
EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL TERMINALS
VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL ACROSS ALL TERMINALS THROUGH MUCH OF THE TAF
PERIOD. DRY CONDITIONS PERSIST THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH LITTLE
TO NO CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION. WINDS REMAIN LIGHT ACROSS
NEARLY ALL TERMINALS, WITH KCPR BEING THE ONLY EXCEPTION AS
SOUTHWEST 10-20KT SURFACE WIND CONTINUES EARLY WEDNESDAY
EVENING. MOUNTAIN TOPS ALONG THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE FREQUENTLY
OBSCURED THROUGH SUNRISE THURSDAY.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.
CHEYENNE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2358 UTC WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2026
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 451 PM MST WED FEB 11 2026
A MIX OF CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS THANKS TO
PERIODS OF PASSING SHOWERS INCLUDING BOTH RAIN AND SNOW. ANY
SHOWERS THAT DO IMPACT SITES WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO LOWER
CIGS AND VIS, AND COULD CREATE MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS. CANNOT
RULE OUT THE POTENTIAL FOR LIFR, BUT IT'S LESS LIKELY AS
PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE ON THE LIGHT SIDE. WINDS BREEZY THIS
EVENING AND THEN LESSENING OVERNIGHT, THOUGH KCYS MAY SEE SOME
LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR OVERNIGHT. WINDS EXPECTED TO BE WEAKER
TOMORROW, WITH MOST NEBRASKA SITES VARIABLE AND LIGHT.
