SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION

AVIATION...KSLC
POST-FRONTAL FLOW WILL MAINTAIN NW WINDS INTO THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS, DELAYING THE NORMAL DIURNAL WIND SHIFT IF NOT
PREVENTING IT ENTIRELY (~30-40% CHANCE). THAT SAID, MAGNITUDES ARE
EXPECTED TO RELAX AND BECOME FAIRLY LIGHT. IF DRAINAGE FLOW DOES
DEVELOP, A RETURN TO NW WINDS IS EXPECTED BY LATE MORNING OR SO.
SKIES WILL REMAIN VFR WITH SOME HIGH CLOUDS FILTERING THROUGH.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
PASSAGE OF A DRY COLD FRONT
WILL DELAY OR PREVENT TYPICAL DIURNAL WIND SHIFT AT MANY AREA
TERMINALS, WITH PERIODS OF LIGHT AND VARIABLE CONDITIONS MIXED IN.
AT SGU, THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO RESULT IN SOME GUSTY
NE GAP WINDS PUSHING DOWN THE TERRAIN OVERNIGHT. AS THE SYSTEM
FURTHER DEPARTS TOMORROW, TERMINALS WILL GENERALLY SEE A RETURN TO
MORE DIURNALLY TYPICAL FLOW. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL, WITH SOME
HIGH CLOUDS FILTERING THROUGH OVERHEAD.

FOR KGLD & KMCK... VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST AT BOTH SITES,
THOUGH A FEW SHOWERS AND SPRINKLES WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH 13Z.
THE SPOTTY COVERAGE AND SHORT DURATION ARE WHY THEY ARE NOT IN
THE TAFS. WINDS ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN AROUND 10-20 KTS THROUGH
THE MORNING, AND THEN LOWER GOING INTO THE EVENING AS THE HIGH
PRESSURE BEGINS SHIFTING EAST. WINDS SHOULD THEN SWITCH TO BE
MORE OUT OF EAST/SOUTHEAST.
