PUEBLO AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0535 UTC THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2025
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 1131 PM MDT WED OCT 15 2025
KALS: WITH STORMS CONTINUING TO PUSH NORTHEAST, MVFR CLOUDS CEILINGS
WILL LAST INTO EARLY THURSDAY MORNING, BEFORE VFR RETURNS THROUGH
THE REST OF THE PERIOD. THURSDAY WILL SEE CONTINUED SOUTHWEST WINDS,
BECOMING GUSTY IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON BEFORE WEAKENING AGAIN
THURSDAY NIGHT.
KCOS: MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH 24 HOURS. THERE IS A
CHANCE THAT PASSING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS TONIGHT, MOVING
OFF OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN, COULD IMPACT THE TERMINAL BETWEEN ABOUT
06-09Z, AND HAVE INCLUDED A TEMPO FOR PASSING SHRA. ALSO DEALING
WITH A WIND SHIFT ALOFT, WITH SOUTHERLY LLWS IN PLACE FOR THE NEXT
FEW HOURS OVER THE TERMINAL. SOUTHWEST WINDS WEAKEN OVERNIGHT, WITH
CEILINGS RAISING THURSDAY MORNING. BY AFTERNOON, SKIES CONTINUE TO
CLEAR AND GUSTY SOUTH WINDS MOVE IN.
KPUB: VFR GENERALLY EXPECTED THROUGH 24 HOURS. GUSTY WINDS WILL LAST
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS, WITH A LOW CHANCE OF QUICK-MOVING SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS PASSING BY THE TERMINAL AROUND 06-09Z. STORMS
COULD PRODUCE OUTFLOW WINDS TO 30 KNOTS AND BRIEF PERIODS OF RAIN,
AS WELL AS THUNDER. CONFIDENCE IS CURRENTLY ONLY HIGH ENOUGH TO
INCLUDE AS PROB30 GROUP. OVERNIGHT, WINDS WILL WEAKEN AND TURN MORE
WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY, WITH SKIES SLOWLY CLEARING THURSDAY MORNING.
LATE AFTERNOON, A NORTHERLY SURGE WILL MOVE INTO BOTH KCOS AND KPUB,
TURNING WINDS NORTH-NORTHWEST, THOUGH SKIES SHOULD REMAIN CLEAR WITH
VFR THROUGH THE END OF THIS FORECAST PERIOD.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 1031 PM MDT WED OCT 15 2025
300MB 100KT JET AND DIFFLUENCE ALOFT HAS BEEN DRIVING ONGOING
CONVECTION WEDNESDAY EVENING AHEAD OF A TIGHTLY WOUND UPPER LOW OVER
UTAH. THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS THURSDAY WILL
GENERALLY BE CONFINED TO NATRONA AND JOHNSON COUNTIES. OTHERWISE,
SCATTERED WEAKER CONVECTION SPREADS SOUTH-TO-NORTH ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT. IFR/MVFR CEILINGS REMAIN ACROSS THE BIGHORN
BASIN AND FROM KCPR TO KBYG.
IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD EARLY THURSDAY MORNING AS
THE CLOSED LOW MOVES NORTHEAST AND BEGINS TO CROSS THE REGION. THE
BEST CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION IS STILL BETWEEN 10Z-18Z/THURSDAY.
EXPECT THE IFR/MVFR CEILINGS TO INFILTRATE KRIW AND KLND BETWEEN 08Z-
12Z/THURSDAY BEHIND NORTHERLY SURFACE FLOW. AT KRKS, ADDITIONAL LIFT
PROVIDED BY THE CLOSED LOW SHOULD PROVIDE A PERIOD OF MORE INTENSE
PRECIPITATION, LIKELY IN THE FORM OF SNOW, THURSDAY MORNING LEADING
TO IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS. GUSTY WEST TO NORTHWEST SURFACE WIND 15-
30KTS ARRIVES IN SOUTHWEST WYOMING AROUND MIDDAY THURSDAY ALLOWING
FOR CONDITIONS TO DRY OUT AND IMPROVE, ESPECIALLY AT KRKS.
SIMILARLY, WEST-SOUTHWEST SURFACE WIND PUSHES INTO KCPR AND ERODES
THE LOWER CEILINGS AS VFR RETURNS AROUND 18Z-20Z/THURSDAY. HOWEVER,
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL (30 PERCENT) THAT THE WIND DOES NOT
MATERIALIZE AS EARLY AND PESKY LOWER CEILINGS PERSIST. THE GENERAL
TREND BETWEEN 23Z/THURSDAY AND 03Z/FRIDAY WILL BE TOWARD DRIER AND
DEVELOPING VFR FROM WEST-TO-EAST. MOUNTAIN TOPS OBSCURED ACROSS THE
BIGHORN BASIN THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST PERIOD, WHILE MOUNTAIN TOPS
ARE OBSCURED ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA.

A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS CONTINUE OVERNIGHT WITH THE CHANCE FOR A FEW
RUMBLES OF THUNDER, MAINLY OUT BY KRWL. LOW STRATUS WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE TO PUSH SOUTH THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT, AFFECTING TERMINALS IN
THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE WITH LOW CIGS. LOW CIGS WILL LEAD TO MVFR
AND/OR IFR CONDITIONS. FOG AND DENSE FOG WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WHICH
WILL LIMIT VISIBILITY. FOG AND LOW STRATUS WILL LIFT THROUGHOUT THE
MORNING, IMPROVING CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA.

DEVELOP DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING (~22-03Z)..
POTENTIALLY AFFECTING EITHER/BOTH TERMINALS. VFR CONDITIONS WILL
OTHERWISE PREVAIL. S WINDS AT 20-30 KNOTS WILL PERSIST THROUGH
THE MAJORITY OF THE TAF PERIOD. WINDS WILL DECREASE TO 10-15
KNOTS AROUND SUNSET (~00-01Z FRI) AS A LEE CYCLONE IN CO
PROGRESSES EASTWARD ACROSS WESTERN KS AND SOUTHWEST NE. WINDS
ARE EXPECTED TO SHIFT TO THE NNW OR N AND INCREASE TO 15-25
KNOTS NEAR THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD (03-06Z FRI).. ON THE

A SURFACE TROUGH WILL DEEPEN OVER EASTERN COLORADO OVERNIGHT AS
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHES. THIS WILL KEEP THE WINDS
OVERNIGHT SOUTH SOUTHEAST AT 10-15 KNOTS. A 40-45 KNOT LOW LEVEL
JET IS ALREADY ESTABLISHED ACROSS SOUTHWEST KANSAS AND WILL
PERSIST THROUGH DAYBREAK THURSDAY MORNING BASED ON SPC MESO
ANALYSIS AND CAMS. THESE STRONGER LOW LEVEL WINDS WINDS WILL
MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE EARLY THURSDAY WHICH WILL RESULT IN
INCREASING SOUTHERLY WINDS TO 20 KNOTS, BETWEEN 15Z AND 18Z
THURSDAY. GUSTS AS HIGH AS 35 KNOTS WILL BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES
EARLY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL
OVERNIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY. HOWEVER, SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY
DEVELOP ALONG A SURFACE BOUNDARY WEST OF HIGHWAY 83 AFTER 20Z,
PRIMARILY IMPACTING THE GARDEN CITY AND HAYS AREAS WITH
INCREASING CLOUDS AT 8000-12000 FEET AGL. WHILE A FEW HIGH BASED
STORMS CAN NOT BE COMPLETELY RULED OUT IN THE GARDEN CITY AND
HAYS AREAS BETWEEN 21Z THURSDAY AND 03Z FRIDAY, THE PROBABILITY
REMAINS LOW, AT 20% OR LESS.

VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL ACROSS WESTERN NM, WITH A MIXED BAG OF VFR
AND MVFR CONDITIONS ACROSS EASTERN AREAS CURRENTLY IMPACTING KLVS
AND FLIRTING WITH KTCC. MODERATE PROBABILITIES FOR FURTHER
DETERIORATION AT KLVS TO IFR GOING INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
OTHERWISE, LOW PROBABILITIES FOR MVFR CIGS EXIST THROUGH THURSDAY
MORNING AT KTCC AND KROW. AN ONGOING ROUND OF SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY
IMPACT KLVS AND POSSIBLY KSAF THROUGH 08-09Z, BUT THEN THE THREAT
FOR STORMS GOES TO NEAR ZERO PERCENT AT ALL TAF SITES. THE ONE
EXCEPTION IS AT KTCC, WHERE ISOLATED LATE DAY STORMS ARE POSSIBLE
BUT PROBABILITIES ARE TOO LOW TO INCLUDE IN THE TAF. OTHERWISE,
WINDS WILL BE MUCH LIGHTER TODAY RELATIVE TO WEDNESDAY.
