AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 532 AM MDT SUN MAY 24 2026
VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS WITH DIURNALLY
DRIVEN WINDS UNDER 15 KTS. A WEAK DISTURBANCE WILL TRIGGER SOME
HIGH BASED MOUNTAIN SHOWERS WHICH MAY PERTURB THE WIND FIELDS AS
THEY MOVE OFF THE MOUNTAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
WHILE -SHRA IN THE VICINITY OF THE TERMINALS LOOKS TOO LOW TO
MENTION, THERE IS A HIGHER PROBABILITY OF SOME STRONGER NW
WINDS SPREADING INTO KALS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
AND WILL CARRY SOME GUSTS UP TO 25 KTS IN A TEMPO GROUP FROM
22-01Z AT KALS. ODDS ARE LOWER FOR GUSTY WINDS TO AFFECT KCOS
AND KPUB BUT SOME BKN VFR CLOUDS EXPECTED INTO BOTH TERMINALS
DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING BEFORE CLEARING
OVERNIGHT. -KT

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 528 AM MDT SUN MAY 24 2026
VFR CONDITIONS REMAIN IN CONTROL THIS MORNING ACROSS THE WEST
SLOPE. LIGHT DRAINAGE WINDS CONTINUE IN SELECT VALLEYS AND
LIGHT, VARIABLE CONDITIONS ELSEWHERE. CLOUD COVER IS EXPECTED TO
INCREASE THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON, BUT BREAKPOINT CEILINGS ARE
UNLIKELY. THERE ARE NON ZERO CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ON THE TERRAIN TODAY. PROB30 SHRA REMAINS IN THE
KTEX TAF FOR THIS AFTERNOON. CHOSE TO LEAVE OTHER MOUNTAIN
TERMINALS OUT FOR NOW. 18Z TAFS MAY NEED TO ADJUST AT GAME TIME
FOR SHOWER DEVELOPMENT. GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS FROM THESE SHOWERS
WILL BE THE PRIMARY AVIATION PROBLEM TODAY, AS RAIN AND CEILINGS
WILL LIKELY NOT POSE A PROBLEM IN THE HIGH BASED SHOWER REGIME.
WINDS WILL REMAIN WESTERLY AT 10-20 MPH ACROSS THE REGION WITH
SOME STRONGER GUSTS CLOSER TO THE DIVIDE. LIGHT WINDS AND
CLEARING SKIES WILL RESUME AROUND SUNSET AND VFR CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE OVERNIGHT.

SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0427 UTC SUNDAY, MAY 24, 2026
AVIATION...KSLC
WINDS WILL REMAIN LARGELY DIURNALLY-DRIVEN, WITH
A NORTHWEST WIND SHIFT EXPECTED BETWEEN 18-20Z. HOWEVER, ANY SHOWER
DEVELOPMENT COULD RESULT IN A BRIEF PERIOD OF GUSTY AND ERRATIC
WINDS. A FEW LIGHTER SHOWERS MAY MOVE THROUGH THE AREA BETWEEN 12-
15Z, WITH MORE SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS
NORTHERN UTAH IN GENERAL AFTER 19Z...THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW IF
THESE SHOWERS WILL ACTUALLY REACH THE TERMINAL.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
LIGHT SHOWERS WILL LARGELY
DIMINISH BY 08Z, THOUGH THERE IS A CHANCE THAT SOME HANG ON, MOVING
THROUGH THE WASATCH FRONT 11-16Z OR SO. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS MUCH OF UTAH AND
SOUTHWEST WYOMING AFTER 19Z. ANY SHOWERS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING GUSTY AND ERRATIC OUTFLOW WINDS UP TO 30-40KTS. OUTSIDE OF
ANY OUTFLOW, EXPECT LARGELY DIURNALLY-DRIVEN WINDS, WITH A SLIGHT
PREFERENCE FOR BREEZY SOUTHWESTERLIES DURING THE AFTERNOON.

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 418 AM MDT SUN MAY 24 2026
LARGELY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. A
FEW SHOWERS ARE MOVING INTO THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS AT THIS TIME,
SO WE ADDED VCSH IN VICINITY OF KJAC UNTIL AROUND 15Z. INCREASED
INSTABILITY WILL LEAD TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON, WITH THE GREATEST COVERAGE IN
SOUTHWESTERN WYOMING. WITH INCREASES IN INSTABILITY ACROSS THE
WESTERN MOUNTAINS, WE ALSO ADDED A PROB30 GROUP FOR KJAC
STARTING AT 19Z. A FEW LOCATIONS MAY SEE A THUNDERSTORM, BUT
WITH CHANCES GENERALLY LESS THAN 20 PERCENT, NOT ENOUGH
CONFIDENCE FOR A PROB30 GROUP. BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE
THIS AFTERNOON WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 20 TO 25 KNOTS IN THE
NORMALLY WINDIER SITES. WIND GUSTS TO 35 TO 40 KNOTS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AROUND ANY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM. MOST ACTIVITY SHOULD
END AFTER 03Z TONIGHT AS THE SUN SETS AND INSTABILITY DECREASES.

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 504 AM MDT SUN MAY 24 2026
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES EARLY THIS MORNING WITH WINDS MOSTLY LIGHT
ACROSS SOUTHEAST WYOMING AND STRONGER ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA.
CLOUD COVERAGE WILL SLOWLY INCREASE THROUGH THE LATE MORNING
HOURS AND INTO THE AFTERNOON. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AROUND NOON AND CONTINUE
THROUGH MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON
ANY OF THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS DIRECTLY IMPACTING TERMINALS SO
INCLUDED PROB30 GROUPS FOR THE TIME PERIODS WITH THE BEST
CHANCES TO SEE THUNDERSTORMS. GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS WILL BE
POSSIBLE IN AND AROUND ANY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM THAT DEVELOPS
THIS AFTERNOON. GUSTY WINDS THIS AFTERNOON WILL CALM DOWN INTO
THE EVENING HOURS, LEADING TO LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS ONCE
AGAIN TONIGHT.

FOR KGLD & KMCK... VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST THROUGH THE
PERIOD. LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE THROUGH
ABOUT 11-14Z WITH SPEEDS AT 200-300FT AROUND 40-45 KTS. THE
OTHER MAIN CONCERN IS THE CHANCE FOR STORMS BETWEEN 20-01Z.
WHILE LESS THAN A 25% CHANCE, STORMS COULD BE CAPABLE OF HAIL
AROUND AN INCH AND WIND GUSTS NEAR 50 KTS.

SOUTHERLY WINDS AT AROUND 10 KNOTS WILL INCREASE TO AROUND 15
KNOTS BETWEEN 16Z AND 20Z AS A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TROUGH
DEEPENS AND MOVES INTO WESTERN KANSAS. THE SURFACE TROUGH WILL
PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
LATE TODAY. THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION AT ANY SPECIFIC AIRPORT
IS LOW (30% OR LESS). WHAT STORMS THAT DO DEVELOP MAY IMPACT
GARDEN CITY AND HAYS WILL BE BETWEEN 23Z TODAY AND 03Z, THEN AT
DODGE CITY AND LIBERAL FROM 02Z THROUGH 06Z MONDAY. IN ADDITION
THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF VFR CEILINGS EXPECTED LATE TODAY AND

SCATTERED TO FEW CLOUD DECKS FROM LAST NIGHT'S THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY STILL REMAIN THIS MORNING. HOWEVER, CONDITIONS AT ALL
THREE TERMINALS ARE HOLDING AT VFR WITH SKIES LOOKING TO BECOME
CLEAR BY THE LATE MORNING. CHANCES OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DO
HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO RETURN DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING FOR THE WESTERN PANHANDLES. HOWEVER, THE PRESENT TREND
WITH THE CAMS HAS SEEN THESE CHANCES RAPIDLY DECREASE WITH EACH
RUN WITH CONFIDENCE IN ANY IMPACT TO THE TERMINALS BECOMING VERY

THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THE CONVECTION IN WEST TEXAS HAS WEAKLY
PUSHED THROUGH THE GAPS OF THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN EARLY THIS
MORNING, BUT VIRGA SHOWERS HAVE DISRUPTED THE EAST WIND AT ABQ
MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. PATCHY MVFR CIGS HAVE NOT YET DEVELOPED
ACROSS EASTERN NM AND CONFIDENCE IS WANING THAT THEY WILL. THIS
AFTERNOON, ADDITIONAL VIRGA SHOWERS OR SPRINKLES WILL DEVELOP
ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL NM. GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS MAY
ACCOMPANY THESE SHOWERS. ADDITIONALLY, ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS EASTERN NM BUT WILL NOT BE
AS ROBUST AS RECENT DAYS. NONETHELESS, THESE STORMS MAY PRODUCE
GUSTY WINDS AS WELL. ALL PRECIPITATION SHOULD DIMINISH BY 03Z MON.
