DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0011 UTC WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2025
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 555 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
THE MAIN LINE OF STORMS HAVE PUSHED EAST OF THE TAF SITES OVER THE
PAST FEW HOURS, BUT CAN'T RULE OUT ANOTHER WEAK STORM OR SHOWER TO
PASS ACROSS THE TAF SITES THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. HAVE KEPT THE
PROB30 IN PLACE TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. ADDITIONALLY, FORECAST
SOUNDINGS SHOW POTENTIAL FOR SOME LOW STRATUS TO MOVE INTO THE TAF
SITES WITH SOME LIGHT NW FLOW EXPECTED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE
10-13Z TIME FRAME WEDNESDAY MORNING. HAVE INTRODUCED A TEMPO FOR
THE POTENTIAL OF CIGS DROPPING TO AROUND 030 BETWEEN 12-16Z AND
BEGINNING TO SCATTER OUT BY AROUND 16-17Z, THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS
NOT HIGH AT THIS TIME. THERE IS ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO ADD A PROB30
FOR SHOWERS ACROSS THE TAF SITES LATE TOMORROW AFTERNOON,
CONTINUING THROUGH THE EVENING.

A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS DRAPED ACROSS THE REGION,
PRODUCING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS NEAR AND NORTH OF THE
I-70 CORRIDOR. THE MAIN IMPACTS FROM THESE STORMS HAVE BEEN
GUSTY WINDS, OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING AND BRIEF, HEAVY DOWNPOURS.
THE UPPER LEVEL FORCING WILL GRADUALLY WANE THIS EVENING, WITH
RAIN DIMINISHING FROM WEST TO EAST. EXPECT MOSTLY VFR
CONDITIONS WITH DRIER AIR SPREADING SOUTHEAST BEHIND THE FRONT
TONIGHT.

QUIETER CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO SETTLE IN AS

SKIES REMAIN CLEAR TO MOSTLY CLEAR WITH SOME VERY LIMITED CUMULUS
DEVELOPMENT WED AFTERNOON. WINDS REMAIN FAIRLY LIGHT AND ARE
EXPECTED TO FOLLOW A TYPICAL DIURNAL DIRECTION PATTERN (BECOMING
SOUTH BETWEEN 02-04Z WED, NW BETWEEN 16-18Z WED).
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
SLOW MOVING SYSTEM WILL

JUST ENOUGH LINGERING MOISTURE/INFLUENCE TO RESULT IN MODEST CHANCES

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 430 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
A WEATHER SYSTEM OVER WYOMING WILL BRING ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES THIS TAF PERIOD AT KRKS AND MOST
EAST OF THE DIVIDE TERMINALS. CHANCES IN DIRECT IMPACTS AT KPNA,
KBPI, KJAC, KCOD FROM SHOWERS AND/OR THUNDERSTORMS ARE LESS THAN
20%. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES (30%) AT KRKS AND KWRL ARE EXPECTED TO
DIMINISH AROUND SUNSET THIS EVENING (02Z). THERE REMAINS A 30%
CHANCE IN A WAVE OF SHOWERS AT KRIW AND KLND BETWEEN 01Z AND 09Z,
RESPECTIVELY. AFTER 02Z AT KCPR, CONFIDENCE INCREASES IN PREVAILING
RAIN AND/OR THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND MOST OF
WEDNESDAY. LOWER CEILINGS ARE EXPECTED TO ACCOMPANY RAIN SHOWERS AT
KCPR AS WELL, WITH A 30% CHANCE OF MVFR CEILINGS. ISOLATED RAIN
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE AFTER 19Z WEDNESDAY AT KRIW, KLND, AND KWRL AND
THESE CHANCES ARE REFLECTED AS A PROB30 GROUP AT THIS TIME.
AT ALL TERMINALS (EXCLUDING KCPR), CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO STAY
VFR WITH ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS; HOWEVER, A BRIEF PERIOD OF
REDUCED FLIGHT CONDITIONS CANNOT BE RULED OUT IN A HEAVY SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM. OTHERWISE, WINDS GENERALLY REMAIN AROUND OR LESS THAN
10KTS THIS TAF PERIOD.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON SMOKE, ICING, AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.
CHEYENNE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2353 UTC TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2025
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 541 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
THE COMPLEX STORM SYSTEM CONTINUES TO CAUSE AVIATION
DIFFICULTIES AS IT INCHES ITS WAY ACROSS THE AREA. THE FIRST
ROUND HAS MOSTLY DEPARTED, BUT SOME BACK-BUILDING NEAR KAIA OR
KSNY IS POSSIBLE FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE SECOND ROUND IS
SEEING LIGHTNING INTENSITY DECREASE, BUT WY TERMINALS WILL
CONTINUE A RISK FOR LIGHTNING, IFR VIS IN MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAINFALL, AND GUSTY WINDS THROUGH ABOUT 03 TO 05Z. CONFIDENCE IS
LOWER IN THIS REACHING NEBRASKA TERMINALS, BUT IMPACTS CANNOT BE
RULED OUT. A PROB30 GROUP WAS MAINTAINED FOR KSNY, WHICH HAS THE
BEST CHANCE TO SEE STORMS THIS EVENING.
IN THE LATE EVENING HOURS TOWARDS WEDNESDAY MORNING, THE STRONG
STORM SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO RE-ORGANIZE TO OUR EAST. THE SPOTTY
DISORGANIZED SHOWERS OVERNIGHT WILL LIKELY CONSOLIDATE TO AN
AREA OF STRATIFORM RAINFALL IMPACTING KBFF, KAIA, AND KCDR
AROUND 09Z TO 11Z, WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND SOME ISOLATED
THUNDER NEAR OTHER TERMINALS. MOIST NORTHERLY FLOW WILL ALSO
LEAD TO LOWER CIGS AT MOST TERMINALS. THE BEST CHANCE FOR IFR IS
AT KSNY, BUT CAN'T BE RULED OUT AT ANY TERMINAL. ON AND OFF
RAINFALL WILL LEAD TO MVFR VIS (AND POSSIBLY BRIEF IFR) FOR MUCH
OF THE DAY WEDNESDAY, MAINLY IN THE CENTRAL/NORTHERN NE
PANHANDLE.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS WESTERN
AND NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA THIS EVENING, WITH RAIN LASTING OVERNIGHT
INTO TOMORROW. WITH THE ABUNDANCE OF RAIN, CEILINGS DROP TO MVFR AND
IFR OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE REGION. LIGHT WINDS OVERNIGHT AND RECENT
RAINFALL MAY ALLOW FOR PATCHY FOG TO DEVELOP WHILE RAIN SHOWERS
LESSEN, CAUSING IMPACTS TO VISIBILITY ACROSS WESTERN AND NORTH
CENTRAL NEBRASKA. WINDS REMAIN LIGHT IN THE MORNING, WITH LOW
CEILINGS AND SHOWERS REMAINING ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE REST OF
THE AFTERNOON. SOME POCKETS OF VFR ARE EXPECTED TO RETURN IN THE
AFTERNOON, THOUGH RAIN SHOWERS MAY STILL PERSIST.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 508 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
KMCK WILL SEE STORMS CONTINUE THROUGH MAJORITY OF THE NIGHT AND
INTO TOMORROW MORNING. OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS, HEAVY RAIN WILL
CONTINUE WITH A FEW BREAKS TO BRING IT BACK TO MVFR. WE ARE
EXPECTING STRATUS TO CLOSELY FOLLOW THE CONVECTION, AS WELL AS
FOG. CONDITIONS LOOK TO IMPROVE IN THE LATE MORNING TO MID DAY.
KGLD SHOULD SEE SOME SHOWERS MOVING IN FROM THE WEST. WE ARE
EXPECTING TO SEE A FEW EMBEDDED STORMS IMPACT THE AIRPORT.
STRATUS IS ALSO EXPECTED UNTIL 15Z, AFTER THAT VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED TO RETURN.

ISSUED AT 2359 UTC TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2025
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 654 PM CDT TUE SEP 16 2025
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH THE HIGH PLAINS
TONIGHT. SHOWERS AND T-STORMS WILL DEVELOP OR MOVE IN FROM THE
WEST BETWEEN 03 AND 06Z AND PASS ACROSS THE TAF SITES THROUGH
12Z. THIS WILL LIKELY NOT BE A SOLID LINE, SO T-STORM CHANCES
ARE 40-50% AT THE TERMINALS. SOUTH WINDS AT 10-15 KTS WILL
BECOME VARIABLE AT 10-20 KTS IN VICINITY OF T-STORMS. EXPECT
GENERALLY LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS AT LESS THAN 10 KTS AFTER THE
PASSAGE OF THE T-STORMS.

MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT ALL TAF SITES OVER THE NEXT
24 HOURS. BUT WE WILL HAVE SOME THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TOWARD THE
TAIL END OF THE TAF PERIOD THAT COULD BE MVFR/IFR DUE TO
THUNDERSTORMS, IN WHICH PROB30S HAVE BEEN NOTED. WINDS GENERALLY
WILL BE OUT OF THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FOR THE MOST PART AND BE IN
THE 10 TO 15KT RANGE, CURRENTLY GUSTING TO 25KTS THROUGH ABOUT
3-4Z, THEN CALMING DOWN THEREAFTER. WHILE THERE ARE SOME STORMS
LINGERING AROUND THE PANHANDLES THIS EVENING, TIMING AND ACTUAL
IMPACT TO A TAF SITE IS IN QUESTION, AND WE'LL DEAL WITH THEM VIA
AMENDMENTS AS CONFIDENCE INCREASES.

BRIEF HEAVY RAINFALL, VERY SMALL HAIL, AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING
STRIKES. THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE MOVING EAST/SOUTHEAST AROUND 10KT.
MID LEVEL CLOUD COVER WILL LINGER OVER MUCH OF THE AREA TONIGHT
WITH A VERY SMALL CHANCE FOR PATCHY MVFR CIGS ACROSS EASTERN NM.
THE NEXT CROP OF SHRA/TS WILL DEVELOP ALONG AND EAST OF THE
CENTRAL MT CHAIN AFTER 12PM WEDNESDAY. A FEW OF THESE STORMS
OVER NORTHEAST AND EAST-CENTRAL NM MAY BE STRONG TO SEVERE.
