AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 535 PM MDT MON MAY 11 2026
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO LAST THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.
NW DOWNSLOPE WINDS HAVE BEEN PRESENT MAINLY ACROSS THE WEST
DENVER METRO, INCLUDING AT KBJC THIS AFTERNOON. KBJC HAS BEEN
GUSTING BETWEEN 15 AND 25 KTS OVER THE LAST TWO HOURS. THESE
WINDS HAVE BEEN WORKING SOMEWHAT IN AND OUT OF THE WESTERN EDGE OF
KDEN OVER THE LAST HOUR TO 90 MINUTES. HIGH-RES MODELING HAS BEEN
BEEN TRENDING TOWARD KDEN HAVING NNW/NW WINDS BETWEEN 10 AND 15
KTS FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND THUS IS OUR CURRENT FORECAST. THERE
IS STILL A ~30% CHANCE THAT WINDS STAY LIGHT AND VARIABLE AT
KDEN. KAPA SHOULD STAY LIGHT AND VARIABLE UNDER 10 KTS THIS
EVENING. BY LATE THIS EVENING AROUND 04Z, WINDS WILL TURN TO
DRAINAGE AT KAPA. AT KDEN AND KBJC, WINDS SHOULD TURN TO A MORE W
AND/OR WSW DIRECTION, BUT MAY NOT TURN TO A TRUE DRAINAGE AHEAD OF
THE INCOMING COLD FRONT.
THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH ALL THREE SITES BETWEEN 10Z AND
12Z EARLY TOMORROW MORNING TURNING WINDS TO BE NORTH TO SLIGHTLY
NNE, FIRST MOVING THROUGH KBJC AND KDEN BEFORE KAPA. A FEW LOWER
CLOUDS AROUND 9000 TO 10000 FT AGL ARE POSSIBLE EARLY TOMORROW
AFTER THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE, BUT VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
CONTINUE. WINDS WILL BE AT MOST BETWEEN 15 AND 20 KTS IMMEDIATELY
FOLLOWING THE COLD FRONT, BUT WILL THEN BE UNDER 10 KTS AFTER
15Z.
BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON, WINDS WILL TURN TO NE/E WITH ONLY SOME
SCT MID- TO HIGH-LEVEL CLOUDS. BY LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON, SOME
VIRGA COULD DEVELOP, ESPECIALLY NEAR KBJC, BUT HAS ONLY ABOUT A
15-20% CHANCE OF OCCURRING. THERE IS AN EVEN LOWER CHANCE (~10%)
FOR VIRGA AT KAPA OR KDEN TOMORROW AFTERNOON. THE POSSIBILITY IS
TOO LOW TO INCLUDE IN THE TAF AT THIS TIME, BUT HAVE INCLUDED BKN
MID-LEVEL CLOUDS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE INCREASE IN MOISTURE.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 431 PM MDT MON MAY 11 2026
VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD. GUSTY WINDS MONDAY
AFTERNOON DECREASE THROUGH 03Z THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH FROM THE NORTH TO START THE PERIOD, BRINGING A GUSTY
NORTHERLY WIND SHIFT TO KCOD, KCPR, KRIW, AND KWRL. WINDS SHOULD
THEN DECREASE WITHIN A FEW HOURS OF FRONTAL PASSAGE. THERE REMAINS
AROUND A 30 PERCENT CHANCE FOR A SHOWER AROUND KCOD THROUGH ABOUT
04Z, WITH LESSER CHANCES AT KCPR. GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS WOULD BE THE
MAIN CONCERN SHOULD A SHOWER OCCUR. TUESDAY IS LESS WINDY THAN
MONDAY, WITH THE STRONGEST GUSTS OCCURRING AROUND KBPI, KPNA, AND
KRKS.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

THE FROPA, BUT EXPECTING IT WILL BE ANYTIME FROM 05Z-09Z SOUTH OF A
SCOTTSBLUFF TO TORRINGTON LINE. FOR KCDR, KSNY, AND KAIA, EXPECT
GUSTS AS HIGH AS 20-25 KNOTS IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE FRONT, BEFORE
