AVIATION
LIGHT NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS WILL PREVAIL AT THE SLC TERMINAL,
BEFORE SHIFTING TO THE SOUTH AND INCREASING BETWEEN 03 AND 06Z.
CIGS WILL LOWER TO OR BELOW 6K FT AGL FROM ABOUT 12-18Z SUNDAY DUE
TO SHOWERS IN THE VICINITY. WINDS COULD SHIFT TO THE NORTH
NORTHWEST (40% CHANCE) AS EARLY AT 13-14Z DUE TO OUTFLOW FROM
SHOWERS NORTH OF THE TERMINAL, OTHERWISE, WINDS WILL LARGELY
REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTH DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.

PERIOD. MIGHT SEE SOME FEW-SCT CLOUDS AROUND 1-3KFT AGL IN THE
10-15Z TIME PERIOD, BUT THAT WILL DEPEND JUST HOW FAR WEST THE LOW
CLOUDS WILL MAKE IT. KAMA LOOKS TO SEE AT LEAST A COUPLE HOURS OF
LOW CIGS, AND POSSIBLY LOW VIS. RIGHT NOW GOING WITH 2SM FOR VIS
AND CIGS DOWN TO 1500FT AGL. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR LIFR OR EVEN
VLIFR VIS AND CIGS, BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO GO THAT
LOW AT THIS TIME.
