SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION  
ISSUED AT 2302 UTC SUNDAY, JANUARY 12, 2025  
   
AVIATION...KSLC  
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY TO DISSIPATE AFTER  
00Z, BUT MAY PRODUCE BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR CIGS UNTIL THEN. FOG  
BECOMES A POSSIBILITY OVERNIGHT IF SKIES CLEAR, THOUGH THIS REMAINS  
A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST. THE MOST LIKELY TIMING FOR FOG, IF IT  
DOES DEVELOP, WOULD BE BETWEEN 13-16Z, WITH CURRENTLY A ~25% CHANCE  
FOR IFR CONDITIONS AND A ~10% CHANCE FOR DENSE FOG (VIS < 1/4SM).  
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE OVERNIGHT, THOUGH WILL  
SLIGHTLY FAVOR A NORTHERLY DIRECTION.   
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING  
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY  
TO DISSIPATE AFTER 02Z ACROSS MOST AREAS, THOUGH MAY LINGER AROUND  
KBCE UNTIL 06-07Z. IF SKIES CLEAR OVERNIGHT, FOG WILL LIKELY DEVELOP  
ACROSS MANY VALLEY LOCATIONS, WITH THE HIGHEST CHANCES AT KLGU,  
KEVW, AND KHCR. AT THESE THREE SITES IN PARTICULAR, DENSE FOG AND  
LIFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY BETWEEN ROUGHLY 09-17Z.

NORTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS, BUT A SMALL  
SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH THIS FLOW THROUGH THE AREA MONDAY  
AFTERNOON. THIS SHORTWAVE WILL BRING SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS TO THE  
AREA LATE MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE BEST CHANCE  
(30%) IS AT KJAC AND KRKS, WITH PROB30 GROUPS FOR MVFR CONDITIONS.  
THIS AREA OF SNOW SHOWERS WILL SLIDE SOUTH MONDAY EVENING, WITH  
CONDITIONS BECOMING VFR AT ALL TERMINALS.  
FOG IS POSSIBLE (30%) AT KJAC AGAIN, BUT WILL BE DEPENDENT ON HOW  
MUCH CLEARING OCCURS OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE REMAINS TOO LOW FOR  
PREVAILING FG, SO WENT WITH VCFG AGAIN FOR TONIGHT INTO MONDAY  
MORNING. WIND WILL BE GUSTY AT KBPI/KPNA/KRKS MONDAY AFTERNOON, WITH  
GUSTS OF 20-25 KNOTS ON AVERAGE. WIND WILL DECREASE SLIGHTLY MONDAY  
EVENING, BUT STILL REMAIN 10-15 KNOTS. WIND WILL REMAIN LIGHT AT  
KJAC, ALTHOUGH A BRIEF SHIFT FROM NORTHERLY TO SOUTHERLY IS LIKELY  
FOR A FEW HOURS MONDAY AFTERNOON. FREQUENT MOUNTAIN TOP OBSCURATION  
CONTINUES THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD.  
EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL TERMINALS  
NORTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS, BUT A SMALL  
SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH THIS FLOW THROUGH THE AREA MONDAY  
AFTERNOON. THIS SHORTWAVE WILL BRING ISOLATED SNOW SHOWERS TO THE  
AREA LATE MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE BEST CHANCE  
(30%) IS AT KCOD AND KWRL, WITH PROB30 GROUPS FOR MVFR CONDITIONS.  
THIS AREA OF SNOW SHOWERS WILL SLIDE SOUTH MONDAY EVENING, WITH  
CONDITIONS BECOMING VFR AT ALL TERMINALS.  
WIND WILL REMAIN LIGHT AT MOST TERMINALS THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. THE  
EXCEPTION IS AT KCPR WHERE WIND WILL REMAIN 10-15 KNOTS FOR THE NEXT  
24 HOURS, WITH GUSTS OF 20-25 KNOTS MONDAY AFTERNOON. FREQUENT

SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS SOME LOWER VFR CLOUDS BLOOMING ACROSS  
CENTRAL NEBRASKA, THOUGH THE LATEST PROBABILISTIC GUIDANCE  
CONTINUES TO SHOW THE PROBABILITY FOR SUB-VFR CIGS/VSBY TO BE 30  
PERCENT OR LESS. WILL MAINTAIN THE TREND FOR A LOWER VFR CIG  
WITH SOME SCT MVFR CLOUDS UNDERNEATH WILL MONITOR TRENDS  
CLOSELY TO SEE IF AN AMENDMENT BECOMES NECESSARY. VFR CIGS WILL  
LIFT A BIT HIGHER MONDAY MORNING BUT MVFR CONDITIONS WILL MOVE  
DOWN FROM THE NORTH. TIMING HAS BECOME A BIT FASTER AND WILL  
INDICATE MVFR CIGS AT KVTN BY LATE IN THE AFTERNOON WITH SOME  
POTENTIAL FOR IFR BY THE END OF THE VALID PERIOD. THERE MAY BE  
SOME FLURRIES AS THE LOWER CIGS START TO PUSH SOUTHWARD BUT WILL  
CONFINE MENTION OF SNOW TO AFTER 00Z WHEN CONFIDENCE IS HIGHER.  
DO NOT EXPECT THE LOWER CIGS OR PRECIPITATION TO PENETRATE FAR  
ENOUGH SOUTH TO IMPACT KLBF.  
THE LIGHT WIND REGIME WILL GET A BIT GUSTY THIS AFTERNOON  
MAINLY AT KLBF WITH GUSTS AROUND 20KT BUT REMAIN GENERALLY AT OR  
BELOW AROUND 10KT AT KVTN. WINDS ALOFT WILL AMPLIFY A BIT  
AROUND DAYBREAK SO WILL MENTION LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR FOR A BRIEF  
PERIOD MONDAY MORNING.
