DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0542 UTC SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1139 PM MDT SAT SEP 26 2026
SEVERAL SUBTLE WIND SHIFTS HAVE BEEN OCCURRING OVER THE LAST FEW
HOURS PRIMARILY AFFECTING KBJC. FOR INSTANCE AT 0530Z, TDEN SHOWS
A BOUNDARY CURRENTLY MOVING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH THROUGH THE
METRO. WE EXPECT THESE TO REMAIN POSSIBLE OVER THE NEXT 1-2 HOURS
AS LIGHT VIRGA SHOWER ACTIVITY CONTINUES WELL TO THE NORTH. WINDS
ARE FORECAST TO BE DRAINAGE OVERNIGHT AT KAPA AND KDEN AND
GENERALLY 12 KTS OR LESS. KBJC SHOULD KEEP LIGHT NW WINDS
OVERNIGHT.
WINDS WILL TURN TO SE/SSE BY THIS AFTERNOON. LATEST GUIDANCE HAS
PUSHED THIS SHIFT BACK AN HOUR OR SO. WINDS WILL BE PRETTY STOUT-
GUSTING TO 20-25 KTS. KDEN AND KAPA SHOULD SEE THE STRONGEST WINDS
OF THE THREE SITES. IN ADDITION, THERE ARE PROB30S AT ALL THREE
SITES FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF HIGH-BASED VIRGA SHOWERS FROM 22Z/23Z
UNTIL ABOUT 3Z. THESE COULD BRING GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS TO AROUND 25-
30 KTS GIVEN SOUNDINGS SHOW DCAPE ~1100-1300 J/KG. AS HAS BEEN THE
CASE RECENTLY, THERE COULD BE SOME LINGERING SHOWERS FOR AN HOUR OR
TWO PAST 3Z. WINDS TURN TO AN ELEVATED DRAINAGE (8-12 KTS) AFTER THE
SHOWERS PASS THROUGH MONDAY MORNING.

AVIATION
KSLC...SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY INCREASE OVERNIGHT,
WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO AROUND 25 KTS BEGINNING AFTER SUNRISE AND
CARRYING ON THROUGH THE DAY. SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE FAVORED TO PERSIST.
VFR CLOUD COVER WILL ALSO GRADUALLY INCREASE AS MOISTURE CONTINUES
TO MOVE INTO THE AREA. SHOWER CHANCES WILL INCREASE SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY MORNING, PARTICULARLY AFTER AROUND 09Z OR SO.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH AN
APPROACHING TROUGH AND REMNANT TROPICAL SYSTEM WILL INCREASE THROUGH
THE TAF PERIOD. THE ENHANCED SOUTH TO SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL FAVOR
SUCH A DIRECTION AT MOST AREA TERMINALS, WITH GUSTS 20-30 KTS
DEVELOPING AFTER SUNRISE AND ON THROUGH THE DAY. VFR CLOUD COVER
WILL ALSO INCREASE. THERE IS AROUND A 20-30% CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING SUNDAY AFTERNOON, PRIMARILY ALONG AND JUST
EAST OF UTAH'S HIGH TERRAIN AND INTO SOUTHWEST WYOMING.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1125 PM MDT SAT SEP 26 2026
KGLD: CALM TO LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS AND CLEAR SKIES MAY ALLOW
FOR SOME LIGHT FOG TO DEVELOP BY 10-12Z...BUT OVERALL CONFIDENCE
IN FOG DEVELOPMENT LOWERING VISIBILITY BELOW MVFR IS LOW. WINDS
BECOME MORE SOUTHEASTERLY BY 18Z, INCREASING TO ABOUT 12 KT
WITH GUSTS TO 20 KT BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. HIGHER LEVEL CLOUD
COVER WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE LATTER HALF OF THE PREVAILING
PERIOD.
KMCK: CALM TO LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS, CLEAR SKIES, AND LOWER
DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS WILL ALLOW FOG TO DEVELOP OVER THE AREA BY
08Z WITH DENSE FOG BRINGING VISIBILITY TO 1/2SM OR LESS BY 10Z.
DENSE FOG WILL SCOUR OUT BY 16Z. WINDS WILL BECOME MORE
EASTERLY TO SOUTHEASTERLY THROUGH 00Z MONDAY. HIGHER LEVEL CLOUD
COVER WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE LATTER HALF OF THE PREVAILING
PERIOD.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1122 PM CDT SAT SEP 26 2026
THE MAIN AVIATION CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM IS DENSE FOG
POTENTIAL. THERE IS MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW STRETCHING FROM KHYS
SOUTHWARD TO KP28. HAVE FAIRLY HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT KHYS WILL
SEE FG+ THIS MORNING WITH 1/4 SM VIS AND LIFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS.
THERE WILL BE A WESTERN EDGE TO THE DENSE FOG AND IS NOT
TOTALLY CLEAR IF KDDC WILL BE NEAR THE EDGE OF THE DENSE FOG OR
NOT. HAVE INSERTED A TEMPO GROUP WITH WITH FG+ IN THE TAF TO
ACCOUNT FOR THIS POSSIBILITY. SOME OF THE MODELS KEEP THE DENSE
FOG EDGE JUST TO THE EAST OF THE KDDC REGIONAL AIRPORT.
OTHERWISE, KGCK AND KLBL SHOULD SEE VFR CONDITIONS THIS MORNING.
LIGHT WINDS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE TAF PD WITH WINDS
EVENTUALLY BECOMING LIGHT NE LATER TODAY.
