DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WILL BE ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH,  
SPECIFICALLY ON THE WASATCH BACK, CACHE VALLEY, AND UINTA COUNTY, WY  
WHERE LOW STRATUS AND/OR FOG DEVELOPMENT MAY PERSIST OR DEVELOP.  
GUSTY NORTH WINDS ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN UTAH WILL DECREASE IN  
SPEED AFTER ABOUT 03Z, ASIDE FROM THE AREAS BETWEEN KCDC AND KSGU.  
ALL OTHER TERMINALS SHOULD SEE LIGHT, DIURNALLY DRIVEN FLOWS.

VFR EXPECTED TO PREVAIL AT BOTH KGLD AND KMCK THROUGH THE TAF  
PERIOD. THERE IS A LOW PROBABILITY, LESS THAN 5 PERCENT, FOR  
FOG TO DEVELOP AT KMCK EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. OTHERWISE,

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
 
 
ISSUED AT 440 PM CST TUE JAN 14 2025  
GOOD FLYING WEATHER AND VFR WILL CONTINUE AT DDC/LBL/GCK THROUGH  
THE TAF PERIOD, WITH LIGHT WINDS. SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES  
STRATUS AND FOG NEAR HYS AS OF 2230Z. LACK OF OBSERVATION AT  
HYS INCREASES THE DIFFICULTY, BUT CONSENSUS OF SHORT TERM MODELS  
SUGGESTS THAT DEGRADED FLIGHT CATEGORIES IN FOG AND/OR STRATUS  
WILL PERSIST AT HYS THROUGH 12Z WED. GOOD FLYING WEATHER, WITH  
VFR/SKC AND LIGHT WINDS, IS EXPECTED AT ALL AIRPORTS WEDNESDAY.
