DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0538 UTC WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2025
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1130 PM MDT TUE SEP 16 2025
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE MOVED EAST OF DENVER AREA
TERMINALS AT THIS TIME, AND NO ADDITIONAL CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
IS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT. PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN RELATES TO
PROGRESSION OF STRATUS THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. THERE IS LIKELY
TO BE OSCILLATION BETWEEN SCT AND BKN MID-LEVEL CLOUD BASES,
030-050 OVER THE NEXT 3-5 HOURS. NEARING SUNRISE, POTENTIAL FOR
MORE PERSISTENT CIGS CLOSER TO 025-030 WILL INCREASE, MAINLY
10-15Z. LOWER CIGS DOWN TO 015 CAN'T BE RULED OUT, BUT CONFIDENCE
IN THIS SCENARIO IS LOW. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT THROUGH THIS PERIOD,
BUT SHOULD GENERALLY FAVOR A MORE NW DIRECTION. A MORE
PERSISTENT/ROBUST NW FLOW WOULD HELP PROMOTE THE LOWER CIG
POSSIBILITY.
FOR WEDNESDAY, THERE'S MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE
PREVALENCE OF NE WINDS 07-12 KTS FROM MID-MORNING THROUGH AT LEAST
MID-AFTERNOON. MID-LEVEL MOISTURE WILL ARRIVE LATE AND PROVIDE
~30% CHANCE OF -SHRA (LESSER INSTABILITY WILL LEAD TO LOWER TSRA
POTENTIAL VERSUS TUESDAY) BEGINNING NEAR 23Z. CIGS 040-060 ARE
FAVORED TO PERSIST WELL INTO THE EVENING AS THIS ACTIVITY MOVES
THROUGH.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1223 AM CDT WED SEP 17 2025
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE ONGOING ACROSS WESTERN AND NORTH
CENTRAL NEBRASKA, WITH RAINFALL RATES CAUSING LIMITED VISIBILITY
CONCERNS. A BRIEF WINDOW OF VFR CONDITIONS ARE OBSERVED EARLY THIS
MORNING, WITH CONDITIONS DROPPING TO MVFR AND IFR IN THE NEXT FEW
HOURS. THESE CONDITIONS WILL LARGELY BE DRIVEN BY LOWERING CEILINGS,
AS AMPLE MOISTURE REMAINS ACROSS THE REGION. WITH LIGHT WINDS
OVERNIGHT AND PLENTY OF MOISTURE, PATCHY FOG MAY DEVELOP ACROSS THE
REGION, ADDING SOME VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS TO THE LOWERED CEILINGS.
STRATUS IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE MORNING KEEPING
CONDITIONS FROM MVFR TO IFR. BY EARLY AFTERNOON, SOME IMPROVEMENT IS
EXPECTED ACROSS SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA, BRINGING A RETURN TO VFR
CONDITIONS SLOWLY THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON.

WIDESPREAD CONVECTION WAS OCCURRING ACROSS SOUTHWEST KANSAS AS

EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM 4000-9000 FT AGL.
SOUTHERLY WINDS AHEAD OF THE STORMS WILL SHIFT TO WEST NORTHWEST
AND REMAIN GUSTY FOR SEVERAL HOURS. BETWEEN 09Z AND 12Z
WEDNESDAY, WINDS WILL RETURN TO A SOUTHERLY DIRECTION AND
DECREASE TO 10-15 KNOTS. BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS WILL DEVELOP
FOLLOWING THIS CONVECTION EARLY IN THE DAY AND WE WILL BE
MONITORING THE CHANCE FOR AFTERNOON AND EVENING REDEVELOPING,
ESPECIALLY IN THE DODGE CITY AND LIBERAL AREAS.

VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT ALL TAF SITES OVER THE NEXT 12
HOURS. BUT WE WILL HAVE SOME THUNDERSTORM CHANCES IN THE SECOND
HALF OF THE TAF PERIOD THAT COULD BE MVFR/IFR, 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.
OVERNIGHT STORMS NEAR TAF SITES, ESPECIALLY KGUY WILL BE POSSIBLE,
BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW, AND WE'LL DEAL WITH THEM VIA AMENDMENTS.

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.
