DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION  
ISSUED AT 0254 UTC MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2024  
   
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/
 
 
ISSUED AT 554 PM MDT SUN SEP 15 2024  
MAIN CONCERN IN THE TAF PERIOD IS IN THE NEAR TERM AS A CLUSTER OF  
SHOWERS AND A COUPLE TS LIFT NORTHEAST. CONDITIONS ARE ALREADY  
QUIETING DOWN AT APA/BJC, AND GUSTS WILL PREVAIL FOR A BIT LONGER  
AT DEN. UNCERTAINTY IN THE WIND FORECAST LATER THIS EVENING AS  
THERE ARE A VARIETY OF SOLUTIONS TO WORK WITH. GENERAL IDEA IS TO  
TRANSITION TO A LIGHT/VARIABLE WIND LATER BEFORE DRAINAGE WINDS  
TAKE OVER EARLY TONIGHT.  
WINDS SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY STEADY OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST TOMORROW,  
WITH MORE MID/HIGH CLOUD COVER. GUIDANCE HINTS AT A FEW MORE GUSTY  
SHOWERS, BUT WILL JUST GO WITH A VCSH FOR NOW AND WAIT UNTIL THE  
00Z GUIDANCE TO FINE TUNE ANY ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

ISSUED AT 1008 PM MDT SUN SEP 15 2024  
AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN MEANS MORE CHANCES FOR RAIN SHOWERS,  
THUNDERSTORMS, AND STRONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ON MONDAY. TONIGHT A  
FEW RAIN SHOWERS WILL PASS THROUGH WESTERN WY, WITH A TEMPO FOR -  
SHRA AT KJAC FROM 07-11Z. OTHER TERMINALS SHOULD STAY DRY AND VFR  
TONIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL INCREASE ON MONDAY  
AS AN APPROACHING UPPER-LOW MOVES INTO THE REGION. SUSTAINED WIND  
WILL AVERAGE 10-20 KNOTS, WITH GUSTS OF 20-30 KNOTS. CONVECTION WILL  
DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON, WITH THE BEST CHANCES FOR TERMINALS WEST  
OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE AND KCPR. ALL TERMINALS HAVE A GOOD CHANCE  
(50%) OF STRONG OUTFLOWS/DOWNDRAFTS DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING  
HOURS.  
MONDAY EVENING INTO MONDAY NIGHT CONVECTION WILL HANG AROUND THE  
LOW, SO KJAC/KBPI/KPNA MAY HAVE RAIN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS  
CONTINUE. WIND WILL DECREASE SUBSTANTIALLY AROUND SUNSET  
(01-02Z) FOR ALL TERMINALS, BUT WILL REMAIN AROUND 7-12 KNOTS  
THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN VFR FOR ALL  
TERMINALS THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD, WITH THE EXCEPTION BEING  
IF/WHEN THUNDERSTORMS DIRECTLY IMPACT A TERMINAL. IF/WHEN THIS  
OCCURS BRIEF REDUCTIONS IN VIS TO MVFR/IFR WILL RESULT.  
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR

ISSUED AT 542 PM MDT SUN SEP 15 2024  
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST THROUGH 02Z AND MAY GET  
INTO VICINITY OF GLD TERMINAL, BUT FLIGHT CATAGORIES WILL LIKELY  
REMAIN VFR DUE TO VERY HIGH CLOUD BASES AND MINIMAL  
PRECIPITATION. GUSTY VARIABLE WINDS WOULD BE MOST LIKELY IMPACT  
IF STORMS APPROACH. OTHERWISE, WITH WINDS DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT  
AND LOW LEVEL JET INCREASING, LLWS WILL BE AN ISSUE AT MCK  
AROUND 06Z. OTHWERWISE MINIMAL AVIATION IMPACTS EXPECTED UNTIL  
AFTER 22Z WHEN THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/
 
 
ISSUED AT 658 PM CDT SUN SEP 15 2024  
NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUED DEVELOPING OVER  
EASTERN COLORADO EARLY THIS EVENING, HOWEVER THE STEERING FLOW  
IS NOT CONDUCIVE FOR ANY APPRECIABLE EASTWARD PROPAGATION THIS  
EVENING. LOW PROBABILITY (ABOUT 20%) CHANCES EXIST FOR  
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING AFTER ABOUT 9Z EAST OF DDC AND PERHAPS  
IN THE VICINITY OF THE HYS TERMINALS BUT THE CHANCES ARE TOO  
LOW FOR ANY MENTION IN THE TAF AT THIS TIME AS DEVELOPMENT IS  
IN QUESTION, WITH POOR MODEL CONSENSUS. SOUTHERLY WINDS WITH  
GUST TO AROUND 20 KNOTS OVERNIGHT WILL MIX DEEPER AGAIN ON  
MONDAY AFTER MID MORNING, PRODUCING GUSTS TO AROUND 30 KNOTS FOR  
THE TERMINALS.
