DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1734 UTC THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 2026
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 1130 AM MDT THU JUN 4 2026
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGHOUT THE TAF PERIOD. WINDS
SHOULD STAY LIGHT AND RELATIVELY VARIABLE THROUGH THE EARLY
AFTERNOON. BY 20Z, A NORTHERLY COMPONENT SHOULD BECOME ESTABLISHED
WITH INCREASING MID- AND HIGH-LEVEL CLOUD COVER. VIRGA SHOWERS
WITH GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS TO AROUND 30 KTS ARE POSSIBLE BETWEEN
ABOUT 20Z AND 1Z THIS AFTERNOON AT ALL THREE SITES. WINDS WILL
TURN TO DRAINAGE TONIGHT AND SHOULD REMAIN BELOW 10 KTS.
WINDS WILL THEN TURN TO NORTHERLY TOMORROW MORNING AROUND 14Z AND
THEN TO NEAR EASTERLY FOR MUCH OF TOMORROW AFTERNOON AFTER ABOUT
20Z AT ALL THREE SITES. FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON, THERE IS A LOWER
CHANCE THAN THIS AFTERNOON (10-20%) OF VIRGA SHOWERS WITH GUSTY
OUTFLOW WINDS. THE HIGHEST CHANCE FOR THIS IS TO THE SOUTH AND
WEST OF KDEN (CLOSER TO KAPA AND KBJC). HAVE NOT ADDED IN A PROB30
AT THIS TIME AS CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW. MID AND HIGH-LEVEL CLOUD
COVER WILL INCREASE IN THE AFTERNOON, AS WELL.

AVIATION...KSLC
VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD UNDER
CLEAR SKIES. BREEZY NORTHWESTERLY WINDS CONTINUE THROUGH ROUGHLY 03-
04Z, BECOMING LIGHT OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST THEREAFTER. THERE IS A 20%
CHANCE FOR WINDS TO SHIFT MORE WESTERLY AFTER 06Z, THOUGH LIGHT AND
VARIABLE WINDS ARE MORE LIKELY OVERNIGHT.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
NO IMPACTFUL WEATHER EXPECTED
ACROSS THE AIRSPACE THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. ENHANCED WESTERLY WINDS
WITH GUSTS 20-25 KTS ARE EXPECTED FOR SOUTHERN AND EASTERN UTAH
TERMINALS THIS AFTERNOON; OTHERWISE, WINDS GENERALLY FOLLOW DIURNAL
TRENDS FOR ALL OTHER REGIONAL TERMINALS.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 1130 AM MDT THU JUN 4 2026
AS A WEATHER DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH SOUTHERN MONTANA TODAY,
CLOUDS ARE INCREASING ACROSS NORTHERN WY, WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING FROM A LINE
JUST SOUTH OF KCOD TO AROUND KBYG. SOME STORMS JUST EAST OF KBYG
COULD BE STRONGER AND PRODUCE VERY GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL. VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED STILL AS THE SYSTEM
MOVES THROUGH, THOUGH KCOD HAS A 10% CHANCE OF MVFR CONDITIONS
FROM ABOUT 04/22Z TO 05/03Z. KCPR HAS HAS A 5-10% CHANCE OF MVFR
EARLY FRIDAY MORNING AS THE COOL FRONT PUSHES LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE SOUTHWARD ALONG THE BIGHORNS INTO NATRONA COUNTY. GUSTY
NORTH WINDS WITH A COOL FRONT HAVE ALREADY PUSHED INTO THE
BIGHORN BASIN SHIFTING WINDS AT KCOD AND KWRL. GUSTY NORTH WINDS
ARE EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO KCPR AROUND 05/02Z, WITH A 10-15%
CHANCE OF SHOWERS THERE AROUND 05/06Z. THE NORTH WINDS WILL ALSO
PUSH INTO KRIW AROUND 05/04Z. OTHERWISE, DRY WEST GUSTY WINDS
WITH OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON AT ALL OTHER TAF SITES, WITH GUSTS
REACHING 25-30 KTS AT KRKS. SOME LOW- TO MID-LEVEL CLOUDS ARE
EXPECTED EAST OF THE DIVIDE OVERNIGHT, BUT SHOULD BURN OFF
QUICKLY FRIDAY MORNING. SKIES CLEAR OUT QUICKLY WEST OF THE
DIVIDE BY 05/06Z.
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BACK IN FRIDAY FOR MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND
GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS, WITH VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED FROM FRIDAY
MID-MORNING THROUGH THE END OF THE DAY.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE PRIMARY HAZARD ONCE AGAIN TODAY. LOOK
FOR ACTIVITY TO KICK UP SHORTLY, MAINLY AS HIGH BASED SHOWERS
WITH A FEW RUMBLES OF THUNDER IN SOUTHEAST WYOMING. THERE WILL
BE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS AT WY TERMINALS THIS
AFTERNOON. ONCE STORMS ENCOUNTER HIGHER MOISTURE IN WESTERN
NEBRASKA, EXPECT THEM TO START PRODUCING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
AND ISOLATED HAIL IN ADDITION TO THE WIND. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
SHOULD WIND DOWN AROUND 01-02Z.
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PASS THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING OR EARLY
FRIDAY MORNING. EXPECT A WIND SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST, NORTH, OR
NORTHEAST FOR THE HIGH PLAINS TERMINALS. WINDS MAY BE GUSTY AT
TIMES. THIS MAY ALSO COME WITH A FEW HOURS OF LOWERED CIGS.
PROBABILITIES FOR MVFR CIGS RANGE FROM 30 TO 60%, SO THIS WAS
HINTED AT IN THE LATEST TAF.
