DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1750 UTC TUESDAY, JULY 29, 2025
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1149 AM MDT TUE JUL 29 2025
STRATUS HAS BEEN PERSISTENT DUE TO CONTINUED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
ADVECTION AND MID LEVEL CLOUD DECK ON TOP. THERE ARE MORE BREAKS
NOW SHOWING UP IN SURFACE OBSERVATIONS, SO WE THINK A DISSIPATION
OR LIFT TO SCT STRATUCU DECK IS EXPECTED THROUGH 19Z. MAIN CHANCE
FOR THUNDERSTORMS IS DELAYED SLIGHTLY DUE TO A STRONGER CAP IN
PLACE THANKS TO THE MORNING STRATUS. AT THIS POINT, THE HIGHEST
RISK OF THUNDERSTORMS STILL EXISTS TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST,
ROUGHLY KAPA AND POINTS S/SE, BUT STILL A PROB30 WARRANTED FOR
KDEN AS STORMS WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE. ANY STRONGER STORMS WILL BE
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL AND BRIEF VISIBILITY
RESTRICTIONS.
FOR TONIGHT, WE EXPECT MOST OF THE STORM THREAT TO BE OVER BY
02Z-03Z, AND THEN VFR CONDITIONS FOR AWHILE. HOWEVER, ANOTHER
SURGE IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE LATE TONIGHT 09Z-12Z (SLIGHTLY AHEAD
OF AVERAGE MODEL GUIDANCE) WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BRING IN MORE
STRATUS AND MVFR CEILINGS (~70% CONFIDENCE) THROUGH MUCH OF
WEDNESDAY MORNING. STORM CHANCES INCREASE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
AGAIN AS THE AIRMASS DESTABILIZES.

AVIATION...KSLC
SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
MORNING, INCREASING WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 20KTS AFTER 17Z. THERE IS
LOW CONFIDENCE ONCE AGAIN IN WIND DIRECTION LATER IN THE AFTERNOON;
WINDS COULD SHIFT NORTHWESTERLY AS EARLY AS 21Z, OR NOT AT ALL.
CURRENTLY, THE MOST LIKELY TIMING IS A WIND SHIFT AROUND 23Z. VFR
CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN LARGELY
SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA, WITH BREEZY
SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND ELEVATED SMOKE
PRODUCING HAZY SKIES ACROSS MUCH OF CENTRAL/EASTERN UTAH. MVFR-IFR
VIS/CIGS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE POSSIBLE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO LOCAL
WILDFIRES. AREAS NORTH OF I-70 AND EAST OF UTAH'S SPINE OF MOUNTAINS
MAY SEE ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP AFTER
20Z. ANY STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING GUSTY AND ERRATIC
OUTFLOW WINDS UP TO 40KTS.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1120 AM MDT TUE JUL 29 2025
LINGERING MVFR CEILINGS AT KCPR SHOULD SCATTER OUT IN THE NEXT
HOUR OR SO AS DAYTIME HEATING ERODES THE LOW-LEVEL CLOUDS.
OTHERWISE, VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED AT ALL TAF
SITES FOR THE FORECAST PERIOD. HOWEVER, STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS
ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF THE
DIVIDE, AND MVFR CONDITIONS ARE QUITE LIKELY UNDER THESE STORMS.
ADDITIONALLY, WITH THE HIGH LEVEL OF BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE
AFTER THE STORMS OVERNIGHT, PATCHY FOG AND/OR LOW STRATUS IS
POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY AT KCOD/KWRL/KCPR INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING.
HAVE INCLUDED SOME SCT DECKS TO REFLECT THE POSSIBILITY. AS
MENTIONED, STRONG STORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING, WITH GUSTY WIND AND SMALL HAIL ACCOMPANYING BRIEF HEAVY
RAIN. FROM NORTH-CENTRAL WY INTO CENTRAL WY AROUND KCPR THOUGH
CONDITIONS COULD BE WORSE IN THE EARLY EVENING WITH LARGER HAIL
AND WIND GUSTS OF 50+ KTS. SHOWERS COULD LINGER EAST OF THE
DIVIDE THROUGH 30/06Z. WEST OF THE DIVIDE, ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE AT THE 4 TAF SITES IN THE AFTERNOON,
BRINGING GUSTY WIND AND SMALL HAIL WITH BRIEF HEAVY RAIN. LOW-
LEVEL NORTHERLY AND EASTERLY FLOW WILL REINFORCE AGAIN OVERNIGHT
EAST OF THE DIVIDE, THEN PUSH INTO WESTERN (KJAC) AND SOUTHWEST
WY FOR A FEW HOURS OF MODERATE SURFACE WINDS BEFORE BECOMING
MORE VARIABLE AROUND SUNRISE.
A SIMILAR PATTERN WILL DEVELOP AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY WITH THE
MOISTURE BOUNDARY HUNG UP ALONG THE DIVIDE. STORMS WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON THOUGH SHOULD BE MORE ACROSS THE WIND RIVER BASIN AND
SOUTHERN BIGHORN BASIN INTO NATRONA COUNTY, WITH LESS OF A
CHANCE ACROSS SOUTHWEST WY.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.
CHEYENNE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1106 UTC TUESDAY, JULY 29, 2025
AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 502 AM MDT TUE JUL 29 2025
COMPLEX FORECAST ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING AS FOG AND LOW
STRATUS OVERTAKE MUCH OF THE PANHANDLE AND PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
WYOMING. LOW STRATUS IS EXPECTED TO STICK AROUND THROUGH THE
MID-MORNING HOURS, POTENTIALLY INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS AS WELL,
ESPECIALLY AT KCYS. EXACT EROSION TIME OF THE LOW CLOUD DECK IS
LOW CONFIDENCE, AS LOCAL KNOWLEDGE SUGGESTS CLOUDS STICKING
AROUND AND WEATHER FORECASTING MODELS SHOW THEM EXITING THE
REGION QUICKLY AS THE SUN RISES. THIS AFTERNOON, SHOWERS AND
STORMS BECOME THE PRIMARY AVIATION HAZARD, THOUGH LOWER
CEILINGS WILL STICK AROUND. CEILINGS THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE VFR,
BUT ONLY AROUND 5,000FT. LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ARE EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP AGAIN TONIGHT AS A SIMILAR ATMOSPHERIC PATTERN REMAINS
IN PLACE. IFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1124 AM MDT TUE JUL 29 2025
FOR KGLD & KMCK... VFR CONDITIONS ARE INITIALLY FORECAST FOR THE
FIRST FEW HOURS OF THE PERIOD WITH GENERALLY SUNNY SKIES.
STARTING AROUND 21Z, BUT MORE LIKELY BETWEEN 23-02Z, STORMS ARE
FORECAST TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA AND INTERMITTENTLY IMPACT
THE TERMINALS. THESE STORMS MAY BE SEVERE WITH WIND GUSTS OF
50-55 KTS. HAIL RANGING FROM 0.25-1.25" MAY ALSO OCCUR.
MULTIPLE ROUND OF STORMS ARE POSSIBLE, SO CONTINUE TO USE
CAUTION ONCE A STORM PASSES. STORMS ACTIVITY SHOULD LOWER/END
AROUND 03Z, BUT HAS A LOW CHANCE OF OCCURRENCE THROUGH 07Z WITH
SHOWERS BEING MORE LIKELY. AROUND THIS TIME, EXPECT LOW LEVEL
WINDS TO BECOME MORE FROM THE NORTH AS A SURFACE LOW PUSHES
SOUTH. THE OTHER CONDITION OF INTEREST IS LOW CLOUD CEILINGS,
FORECAST TO DEVELOP BETWEEN 08-12Z. KMCK IS LIKELY TO SEE LOWER
CEILINGS AS A WHOLE AND BEFORE KGLD, BUT BOTH SITE SHOULD LOWER
TO AROUND 1000FT. ONCE CEILINGS LOWER, THEY LIKELY WON'T LIFT
UNTIL CLOSER TO 15-17Z. IN SHORT, STORMS THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING,
LOW CEILINGS TOMORROW MORNING.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1150 AM CDT TUE JUL 29 2025
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE DOMINANT FLIGHT CONDITIONS
THROUGH THE PERIOD. AROUND 6Z, A FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PASS THROUGH
SW KANSAS. THIS WILL SHIFT WINDS CONSIDERABLY AND IS PUT IN THE TAF
DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY OF THE STRENGTH AND DURATION OF THE SHIFT.
ADDITIONALLY, BEHIND THE FRONT THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED.
THE EASTWARD EXTENT IS ALSO HOLDS UNCERTAINTY, BUT THE CURRENT
FORECAST IS THAT STORMS WILL STAY WEST OF ALL TERMINALS. HYS HAS
VCSH FOR DISSOLVING STORMS/SHOWERS MOVING NEAR THE TERMINAL THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT.
