AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF PACKAGE.
GUSTY WEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE AT KDEN THROUGH ROUGHLY 05Z AND
KBJC THROUGH AROUND 10Z. A FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA BETWEEN
9Z AND 10Z, IMPACTING KDEN FIRST AND KAPA SECOND. WINDS WILL TURN
SOUTHEASTERLY BEHIND THE FRONT, BEFORE TURNING SOUTH BY 14Z. WINDS
AT KBJC ARE MORE UNCERTAIN. THE FRONT IS NOT EXPECTED TO HAVE THE
SAME EFFECT AT KBJC AS THE OTHER TWO TERMINALS. HOWEVER, IF THE
FRONT DOES PROGRESS FURTHER WEST THAN FORECAST, WINDS COULD TURN
MORE EASTERLY OVERNIGHT THAN WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE IN THE TAF
FOR KBJC. WINDS WILL PICK UP FROM THE WEST NEAR 17Z TOMORROW, WITH
GUSTS AROUND 23KTS FOR KDEN AND KBJC.

VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE
THE MAIN HAZARD, WHICH LESSEN SOME OVERNIGHT. A COLD FRONT DIPS INTO
NORTHERN WYOMING EARLY IN THE PERIOD, WITH NORTHERLY WIND SHIFTS AT
KCOD, KWRL, AND THEN KCPR. PRECIPITATION WILL BE LIMITED TO FAR
NORTHERN WYOMING AND THE MOUNTAINS, WITH ABOUT A 30 PERCENT CHANCE
AT KCOD, LESS FOR KWRL. FOR OTHER SITES, INCREASED MID-TO-HIGH
LEVELS CLOUDS OCCUR, WITH NO PRECIPITATION EXPECTED.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

MVFR CIGS FOR THE NORTHERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE TERMINALS FRIDAY
MORNING AS A CLIPPER PASSES TO THE NORTH WITH SOME LIGHT SNOW
POSSIBLE AS WELL. KSNY MAY DROP TO MVFR AS WELL BUT THAT IS MUCH
LOWER CONFIDENCE AND AS SUCH HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THE OFFICIAL
TAF FOR NOW. FOR WYOMING TERMINALS GUSTS OF 30-40KTS CONTINUE
FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS WITH LLWS PREVALENT DURING TIMES OF
CALMER SURFACE WINDS. THUS TIMING OUT LLWS AT ANY LOCATION IS
TRICKY AND WAS ALLOWED TO BE ADDED WHEN GUIDANCE THOUGHT IT
SHOULD BE WITHOUT MUCH TWEAKING.

A COLD FRONT WILL TRACK THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH EARLY
EVENING. THIS WILL LEAD TO A SHIFT IN WIND DIRECTION TO THE
NORTH OR NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA AND BRING IFR CEILINGS TO
NORTHERN NEBRASKA. THESE CEILINGS WILL IMPACT THE KVTN TERMINAL
WITH CEILINGS RANGING FROM 500 TO 900 FT AGL THROUGH FRIDAY
MORNING. SOME IMPROVEMENT IN CEILINGS ARE EXPECTED OVER NORTHERN
NEBRASKA FRIDAY WITH BROKEN SKIES RANGING FROM 1200 TO 2000 FT
AGL AT THE KVTN TERMINAL. FOR THE KLBF TERMINAL, CEILINGS WILL
GRADUALLY FALL OVERNIGHT, REACHING 1500 TO 3000 FT AGL FRIDAY
MORNING. THESE CEILINGS WILL PERSIST THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

FOR KGLD... VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST, BUT THERE IS THE
POSSIBILITY OF LOWER CEILINGS AROUND 1000-2000FT BETWEEN 12-20Z.
CURRENTLY THE CHANCE IS AROUND 35% SO I HAVE LEFT IT OUT OF THE
TAFS FOR NOW. BE CAUTIOUS AS WELL FOR SOME BRIEF LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR AS GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT THERE MAY BE POCKETS OF 35KT
WINDS BETWEEN 200-600FT THROUGH 06Z. OTHERWISE, WINDS NEAR THE
SURFACE SHOULD REMAIN FROM THE NORTHWEST DURING THE NIGHT, AND
FLIP TO BE FROM THE SOUTH AROUND 18Z.
FOR KMCK... VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST INITIALLY, BUT CEILINGS
SHOULD LOWER TO AROUND 1000FT AFTER 06-09Z AS A POOL OF SURFACE
MOISTURE MOVES IN FROM THE NORTH. THE LOW CEILINGS SHOULD
PERSIST THROUGH THE NIGHT AND MORNING, LIFTING CLOSER TO 18Z BUT
POTENTIALLY LINGERING THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD.
OTHERWISE, BE ALERT FOR SOME BRIEF LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR AS
POCKETS OF 40KT WINDS ARE POSSIBLE BETWEEN 200-600FT. WINDS
NEAR THE SURFACE SHOULD REMAIN FROM THE NORTHWEST UNTIL 18Z.
THEN THEY SHOULD SHIFT TO BE MORE FROM THE EAST/SOUTHEAST.
