DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2016 UTC MONDAY, APRIL 28, 2025
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1141 AM MDT MON APR 28 2025
VFR TODAY, WITH JUST A FEW WEAK SHOWERS/VIRGA, MAINLY NORTH OF THE
TERMINALS. COULD SEE A FEW DROPS TOWARDS A BKN070-080 THIS
AFTERNOON IF ANY MORE ORGANIZED CONVECTION DEVELOPS. WINDS SHOULD
GRADUALLY TURN MORE NORTHERLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH A MORE
PRONOUNCED FRONTAL PUSH BETWEEN 00-03Z. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH
OVERNIGHT.
MAIN CONCERN IN THE TAF PERIOD IS FOR LOW STRATUS TO FILL IN
BEHIND THE FRONT OVERNIGHT. GUIDANCE IS A LITTLE MORE BEARISH ON
THIS POTENTIAL AND HAVE STEPPED BACK FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST A
BIT. STILL THINK THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS OVERNIGHT,
ESPECIALLY AFTER 06Z.
ANY STRATUS TUESDAY MORNING SHOULD QUICKLY BURN OFF, WITH
SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS GRADUALLY INCREASING FROM THE LATE MORNING
INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS. SOME AFTERNOON CONVECTION WILL
ALSO BE POSSIBLE

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1131 AM MDT MON APR 28 2025
WEST OF THE DIVIDE...KJAC/KRKS/KPNA/KBPI TERMINALS
LIFR/IFR CONDITIONS AT KJAC SHOULD IMPROVE TO MVFR BY 20Z/MONDAY AND
LOW-END VFR BY 23Z AS MOISTURE BEGINS TO SHIFT TO THE EAST. A MOIST
BOUNDARY LAYER AND A CLEARING SKY ALLOWS FOR 025AGL CEILING TO
DEVELOP AT KJAC LATE TONIGHT, POTENTIALLY LINGERING UNTIL
16Z/TUESDAY. OTHER TERMINALS REMAIN VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH
PROB30 BRIEF LOW-END VFR SHOWERS LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. GUSTY WEST-NORTHWEST WIND 12-22KTS AT KRKS/KBPI/KPNA SLOWS
BY EARLY EVENING, AND KRKS SEES A SHIFT TO THE NORTHEAST BEHIND A
SURFACE COLD FRONT. THIS COULD ALLOW FOR LOCALIZED MVFR AROUND KRKS
OVERNIGHT. MOUNTAIN TOPS FREQUENTLY UNTIL 15Z/TUESDAY.
EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCPR/KCOD/KRIW/KLND/KWRL TERMINALS
RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS OVER KCOD/KWRL HAVE SLIPPED SOUTH INTO CENTRAL
WYOMING AS OF LATE MONDAY MORNING ON THE BACKSIDE OF LOW PRESSURE.
FREQUENT MVFR AND OCCASIONAL IFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH MUCH OF
THE AFTERNOON. CEILINGS RISE TO VFR AND PRECIPITATION COMES TO AN
END FROM NORTH-TO-SOUTH BEGINNING AROUND KCOD JUST PRIOR TO
00Z/TUESDAY. THESE IMPROVING CONDITIONS REACH A KLND-KCPR LINE
BETWEEN 06Z-10Z/TUESDAY. IF CLOUD COVER CLEARS ENOUGH BY SUNRISE
TUESDAY, AREAS OF FOG COULD FORM AROUND KRIW WHERE THERE IS A 30
PERCENT CHANCE OF 5SM VISIBILITY UNTIL 15Z/TUESDAY. NORTHERLY
SURFACE WIND 10-20KTS SLOWS BY EARLY EVENING LEAVING WINDS UNDER
10KTS BY 06Z/TUESDAY. MOUNTAIN TOPS OBSCURED UNTIL 03Z/TUESDAY.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON SMOKE, ICING, AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1140 AM MDT MON APR 28 2025
A FAIRLY STRONG COLD FRONT WILL SWIFTLY MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
BY 00Z. THIS FRONT WILL BRING LOWER CEILINGS TO THE NORTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON INCLUDING KCDR AND
KAIA AND THE REMAINDER OF THE TAF SITES THIS EVENING. THESE
LOWER CEILINGS SHOULD REMAIN AT OR BELOW 5KFT BUT SOME
LOCATIONS SUCH AS KCDR/KAIA AND KCYS WILL MOST LIKELY DROP INTO
THE MVFR CATEGORY. THE BULK OF THE RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS
SHOULD REMAIN AROUND KAIA/KCDR, BUT A FEW SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS MAY ALSO AFFECT KBFF AROUND 00Z.

NORTH PLATTE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1937 UTC MONDAY, APRIL 28, 2025
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1245 PM CDT MON APR 28 2025
MAIN AVIATION CONCERN IN THE IMMEDIATE SHORT-TERM THE THREAT FOR
CONVECTION TO IMPACT BOTH TERMINALS FOLLOWED BY EXPANSIVE LOW-
STRATUS TONIGHT INTRODUCING MVFR AND POSSIBLY IFR CONDITIONS.
THIS AFTERNOON, WATCHING SCATTERED CUMULUS DEVELOP ACROSS MUCH
OF THE SANDHILLS AHEAD OF INCREASING RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS
FURTHER NORTHWEST. EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO BE THE IMMEDIATE
CONCERN, PARTICULARLY FOR VTN, WHERE LOW-END VFR CONDITIONS ARE
LIKELY AND EVENTUAL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY ENCROACH
ON THE TERMINAL BY LATE AFTERNOON. FOR NOW, HELD OFF ON DIRECT
IMPACTS UNTIL CLOSER TO 28/23Z (6PM CDT) WITH INCREASINGLY
DEGRADED FLIGHT CONDITIONS THROUGH THE EVENING BEHIND A
PROGRESSIVE COOL FRONT. FOR LBF, BELIEVE POTENTIAL THUNDERSTORM
IMPACTS COULD BE GREATER THOUGH COVERAGE WILL LIKELY REMAIN
SCATTERED. BECAUSE OF THIS, ELECTED TO COVER WITH A TEMPO GROUP
FOR NOW AND WILL MONITOR TRENDS/OBS LATER TO AMEND AS NECESSARY.
BEHIND THE FRONT, LOW STRATUS WILL BE EXPANSIVE ACROSS THE AREA
AND HAVE MAINTAINED INHERITED MVFR CONDITIONS TO BOTH TERMINALS
FOR MUCH OF THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. CAN'T RULE OUT
BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR AND POTENTIALLY LIFR CONDITIONS BUT
CONFIDENCE IN INCLUDING THIS INTO PREVAILING CATEGORIES IS TOO
LOW AT THIS TIME. EXPECT CONDITIONS TO SLOWLY IMPROVE THROUGH
DAYBREAK ON TUESDAY FOR ALL AREA TERMINALS.

FRONT BEGINS TO PUSH SOUTHWARD THROUGH NORTHEAST NM AFTER 06Z,
PUSHING UP AGAINST THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN BY 12-15Z. MODERATE
CONFIDENCE IN NORTHEAST WINDS GUSTING TO 20-25KTS ACROSS EASTERN
