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.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 537 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
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.

AVIATION...KSLC
QUIETER CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO SETTLE IN AS
SYSTEM DEPARTS. PRECIPITATION CHANCES REMAIN LOW THROUGH WED, AND
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
CONTINUE TO DEPART THE REGION TO THE EAST. NE UT AND SW WY WILL SEE
JUST ENOUGH LINGERING MOISTURE/INFLUENCE TO RESULT IN MODEST CHANCES
(~10-30%) OF CONVECTION WED AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE, DRIER AND QUIETER
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AT MOST AREA TERMINALS WITH CLEAR TO MOSTLY
CLEAR SKIES AND FAIRLY LIGHT WIND MAGNITUDES.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1030 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL BUT CPR FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE PERIOD.
LINGERING SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS EAST THAT HAS BROUGHT UPSLOPE
FLOW TO MVFR CONDITIONS. A MORE STEADY RAINFALL 10-15Z THAT
COULD SEE EVEN IFR CONDITIONS AS A PROB30 GROUP. CPR WILL SEE
THE ON AND OFF CHANCES FOR RAIN SHOWERS ALL DAY WEDNESDAY
THROUGH ABOUT 01Z BEFORE FINALLY PUSHING EAST WITH LINGERING
OVERCAST SKIES HOVERING ABOVE THE VFR MARK AROUND 5KFT.
OTHERWISE, WEST OF THE DIVIDE WILL REMAIN DRY AS THE UPPER LEVEL
LOW PIVOTS EAST KEEPING ANY ACTIVITY TO THE EAST OF EVEN COD.
RIW/LND SHOULD SEE THE ACTIVITY BETWEEN THE 19-00Z TIMEFRAME
AND WRL AROUND 17-21Z AS RAIN SHOWERS PUSH SOUTHEAST FROM THERE
FIRST BEFORE ENDING AT CPR AROUND 01Z. LIGHT WINDS NO MORE THAN
10KTS WITH SCATTERED MID TO UPPER LEVEL CLOUDS WEST OF THE
DIVIDE, AND MID LEVEL CEILINGS STARTING TO LIFT AFTER THE 00-01Z
TIMEFRAME INTO THE UPPER LEVELS. THIS SHOULD CLEAR OUT BY
THURSDAY MORNING REFLECTED IN THE NEXT TAF CYCLE.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR

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.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 627 PM CDT TUE SEP 16 2025
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.

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.

THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF SHRA/TS WILL FOCUS AROUND CENTRAL NM
BETWEEN KABQ, KSAF, AND KLVS THRU SUNSET. STRONG OUTFLOW WINDS,
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.
