WEST OF THE DIVIDE...KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS TERMINALS.
SCT-BKN FL200-300 CLOUDS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH 18Z.
SNOW CHANCES INCREASE FROM THE WEST AFTER 19Z, AS CEILINGS DROP
TO AROUND 6000FT. MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS WILL INCREASE OVER THE
WESTERN PORTIONS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AS WELL. THERE WILL BE ABOUT
A 65% CHANCE FOR SNOW AT KJAC STARTING ABOUT 20Z, WITH MARGINAL
MVFR CONDITIONS. THESE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO LAST THROUGH
THE REST OF THE TAF PERIOD, DESPITE SNOW ENDING AROUND 03Z.
ELSEWHERE, CHANCES ARE LESS, WITH 30 TO 40 PERCENT CHANCES AT
KBPI/KPNA. MARGINAL MVFR CONDITIONS ARE ALSO EXPECTED WITH ANY
SNOW SHOWER. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN DRY AT KRKS, WITH
WESTERLY WIND GUSTS AROUND 25KT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING.
EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL TERMINALS.
VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD, WITH WINDS DECREASING
OVERNIGHT, AND THEN INCREASING WITH DIURNAL TRENDS WEDNESDAY
MORNING/AFTERNOON. A WEAK AND QUICK-MOVING WEATHER SYSTEM MOVES
THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING. THE MAIN
IMPACT FROM THIS IS INCREASING CLOUDS. HOWEVER, THERE IS ABOUT A 20%
CHANCE FOR LIGHT SNOW AT MOST SITES. THESE CHANCES ARE TOO LOW TO
INCLUDE IN TAFS AT THIS TIME, BUT WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED TO SEE LIGHT
SNOW BETWEEN 20Z AND THE END OF THE PERIOD AS THE WEATHER
SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH. MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS WILL INCREASE AFTER
00Z.
