DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2351 UTC WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 2026
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 538 PM MDT WED AUG 12 2026
WITH AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MOVING THROUGH, WINDS ARE CURRENTLY
GUSTY UP TO 20 KTS FROM THE NORTH AT DEN AND BJC. AT APA, WINDS
HAVE BEEN MORE SOUTHEAST DUE TO A DIFFERENT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY.
THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH HOW WINDS WILL EVOLVE AT APA WITH
THE TWO BOUNDARIES. FOR NOW, HAVE KEPT WINDS TO THE SOUTHEAST, BUT
THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THE NORTHERLY BOUNDARY COULD OVERTAKE IT
AND HAVE NORTHERLY WINDS INSTEAD.
THERE IS A PAUSE IN CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY THIS EVENING DUE TO DRIER
AIR FILTERING IN. HOWEVER, AS WINDS TURN MORE NORTHEAST LATER THIS
EVENING, ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS POSSIBLE.
FOR THIS REASON, HAVE INTRODUCED A NEW PROB30 TO THE TAF FROM
03Z-07Z. OVERALL LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT. GUIDANCE
DOES HINT AT LOW STRATUS COMING INTO COLORADO BY TOMORROW
MORNING, HOWEVER IT SHOULD STAY EAST OF ALL TERMINALS.
FOR TOMORROW, WINDS SHOULD GENERALLY TRANSITION TO AN
EASTERLY/NORTHEASTERLY COMPONENT, WITH UPSLOPE ALLOWING ANOTHER
ROUND OF CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON. DUE TO BETTER MOISTURE
AVAILABILITY, VISIBILITIES WILL LIKELY DROP WITH THE HEAVIER
RAINFALL. OUTFLOW WINDS WILL BE A CONCERN, WITH GUSTS UP TO 30-35
KTS.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1102 AM MDT WED AUG 12 2026
VFR CONDITIONS AND MAINLY DRY WEATHER ARE ANTICIPATED THIS
FORECAST PERIOD FOR ALL OF THE TERMINALS. AFTERNOON AND EARLY
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS ANTICIPATED, HOWEVER, THE
HIGHEST COVERAGE OF DEVELOPMENT WILL STAY OVER AND NEAR THE
HIGHER TERRAIN. GIVEN THE LOW CHANCE THAT A FEW STORMS DO MAKE
IT OFF OF THE MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON, HAVE MAINTAINED THE
PROB30 AT ALL SITES.
THE MAIN IMPACTS WITH WINDS THIS PERIOD WILL BE EARLY THIS
EVENING FOR COS AND PUB AS A FAIRLY STRONG FRONT PUSHES SOUTH
OVER THE PLAINS. MADE LITTLE CHANGES TO THE WIND SHIFT, THOUGH
DID BUMP THE SHIFT BY AN HOUR FOR COS AND DID INCREASE THE
SPEEDS AND GUSTS BY A COUPLE OF KNOTS. WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THIS
SHIFT, AS A SMALL WINDOW OF HIGHER SPEEDS AND GUSTS WILL BE
POSSIBLE.

WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE FROM
SOUTH TO NORTH ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE NEXT 12 HOURS. THESE
STORMS ARE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAIN, GUSTY WINDS, AND
FREQUENT LIGHTNING. SHOULD ONE OF THESE STORMS PASS OVER A
TERMINAL, CONDITIONS COULD DROP TO MVFR/IFR FOR A BRIEF PERIOD
OF TIME. ACTIVITY SHOULD BEGIN TO TAPER OFF AFTER 06Z THIS
EVENING, BUT COULD LINGER AS LATE AS 12Z TOMORROW MORNING. A
BREAK IN ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED BEFORE AFTERNOON STORMS BLOSSOM
AGAIN AFTER 18Z. OUTSIDE OF THE INFLUENCE OF STORMS, WINDS WILL
BE GENERALLY AND TERRAIN DRIVEN DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD,
BECOMING WESTERLY AND GUSTING TO AROUND 20 KNOTS IN THE
AFTERNOON. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL.

WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE FROM
SOUTH TO NORTH ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE NEXT 12 HOURS. THESE
STORMS ARE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAIN, GUSTY WINDS, AND
FREQUENT LIGHTNING. SHOULD ONE OF THESE STORMS PASS OVER A
TERMINAL, CONDITIONS COULD DROP TO MVFR/IFR FOR A BRIEF PERIOD
OF TIME. ACTIVITY SHOULD BEGIN TO TAPER OFF AFTER 06Z THIS
EVENING, BUT COULD LINGER AS LATE AS 12Z TOMORROW MORNING. A
BREAK IN ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED BEFORE AFTERNOON STORMS BLOSSOM
AGAIN AFTER 18Z. OUTSIDE OF THE INFLUENCE OF STORMS, WINDS WILL
BE GENERALLY AND TERRAIN DRIVEN DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD,
BECOMING WESTERLY AND GUSTING TO AROUND 20 KNOTS IN THE

AVIATION...KSLC
AFTER A BRIEF LULL, SHOWERY CONDITIONS REDEVELOP
LATER THIS EVENING, WITH A 30% CHANCE FOR SHOWERS TO IMPACT THE
TERMINAL WITH GUSTY AND VARIABLE WINDS BETWEEN 04-10Z. OTHERWISE, A
PERSISTENT MID-TO-HIGH LEVEL CLOUD DECK PERSISTS INTO THURSDAY, WITH
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS REDEVELOPING AGAIN AFTER 22Z. THESE STORMS
WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL THAT COULD BRIEFLY LOWER
VIS TO MVFR AND REDUCE CIGS <6KFT. OUTSIDE OF GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS,
WINDS REMAIN GENERALLY LIGHT AND DIURNALLY DRIVEN.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AIRSPACE
INTO EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. A BRIEF LULL IN ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED
ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE AIRSPACE THIS EVENING, BEFORE
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BECOME MORE WIDELY SPREAD
THURSDAY MORNING. WIDESPREAD CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP AGAIN AFTER 18-20Z THURSDAY ACROSS MUCH OF THE AIRSPACE,
WITH POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE GUSTY AND ERRATIC OUTFLOW WINDS TO 40 KTS
AS WELL AS HEAVY RAINFALL THAT COULD PUSH VIS INTO THE MVFR CATEGORY.

THE EAST SLOPES OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN. LATE TONIGHT AND

CONTINENTAL DIVIDE. ON THURSDAY, THERE WILL BE A LOT OF CLOUD
COVER AS EXCESSIVE MONSOON MOISTURE STREAMS NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS
THE STATE. NONETHELESS, A DISTURBANCE OR TWO EMBEDDED IN THE FLOW
SHOULD BE ABLE TO PRODUCE SCATTERED TO ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL PARTS OF THE EASTERN PLAINS WESTWARD.
THERE WILL BE PERIODS OF MORE NUMEROUS ACTIVITY IN THE WESTERN AND
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS. STORM MOTION THIS EVENING WILL GENERALLY BE
TOWARD THE NORTH AROUND 10-15 KT, AND TOWARD THE NORTHEAST ON
