BREEZY WINDS ARE STILL OCCURRING AT MCK BUT ARE FORECAST TO WANE
AS THE NIGHT GOES ON. AS FOR GLD WINDS HAVE ALREADY DECREASED
LEADING TO LLWS BEING A CONCERN, THIS WILL THEN BECOME A CONCERN
FOR MCK AS THE WINDS DECREASE. GLD COULD SEE SOME VERY ROGUE
GUSTS UP TO 20 KNOTS BUT THINK THE OVERALL THREAT IS NOT WORTHY
OF A TEMPO AT THIS TIME. WINDS ARE THEN FORECAST TO SHIFT TO THE
SOUTH-SOUTHWEST WITH BREEZY WINDS RETURNING TO EACH TERMINAL AS
THE NOCTURNAL INVERSION BREAKS IN THE MID MORNING. BE AWARE JUST
AFTER THIS PERIOD OF A COLD FRONT WITH STRONG WINDS AND WINDS
SHIFTING TO THE NORTHWEST.

VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST WITH THIS CYCLE. SUSTAINED WINDS WILL
REMAIN AROUND 15 KTS ALL NIGHT WITH OCCASIONAL HIGHER GUSTS AND
WILL SLOWLY BECOME SOUTHWESTERLY. WINDS WILL INCREASE A FEW HOURS
BEYOND SUNRISE ONCE AGAIN WITH SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 25-30 KTS
WITH GUSTS UP TO 35-45 KTS. BLOWING DUST MAY OCCUR ONCE AGAIN BUT
CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN THE TAFS AT THIS
TIME. WINDS WILL SLOWLY DECREASE AT THE END OF THIS TAF PERIOD,
BUT WE COULD STILL SEE GUSTS UPWARDS OF 30 KTS.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 1040 PM MST TUE FEB 17 2026
WINDS HAVE WEAKENED AROUND THE REGION, WITH MOST AREAS BELOW 15
KTS AS OF 06Z. MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW HAS RESULTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT
OF MID-LEVEL CLOUDS AND SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS IN AND AROUND THE
WESTERN AND NORTHERN HIGH TERRAIN AND THIS WILL LIKELY PERSIST
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS, WITH INTERMITTENT LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS.
STRONG SOUTHWEST/WEST WINDS ARE LIKELY AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON,
WITH GUSTS OF 30 TO 50 KTS COMMONPLACE ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION.
GENERALLY SPEAKING, WINDS WILL BE SLIGHTLY WEAKER THAN TUESDAY IN
EASTERN NM AND SLIGHTLY HIGHER IN CENTRAL AND WESTERN AREAS. A
PACIFIC COLD FRONT WILL INTRUDE FROM THE WEST AROUND 18Z, SURGING
EASTWARD TOWARD THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY SHORTLY AFTER 00Z. A BRIEF
PERIOD OF STRONGER WINDS AND BLOWING DUST/SNOW ARE POSSIBLE ALONG
THE LEADING EDGE OF THE FRONT, WITH WINDS SHIFTING AROUND TO THE
WEST/NORTHWEST IN THE EVENING. STRONG WINDS WILL PERSIST INTO THE
EVENING HOURS TOMORROW IN EASTERN NM AS THE FRONT SWEEPS ACROSS
THE PLAINS.
