WINDS WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE SOUTH OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS

OUTFLOW FROM CONVECTION COULD DISRUPT THIS PATTERN. TOWARDS 06Z
THURSDAY, WINDS TRANSISITION TO A SOUTHERLY DRAINAGE DIRECTION.
LIFT FROM THE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO,
INCLUDING THE DENVER AREA AFTER 18Z. SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS

BREEZY SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT, WITH INCREASING MID-
LEVEL CLOUDS. SHOWERS WILL PASS THROUGH THE AREA IN THE AFTERNOON
HOURS, CHANGING WINDS TO SOUTHWESTERLY AND BRINGING A CHANCE OF RAIN
AND THE TERMINAL AROUND 21Z-00Z. SHOWERS COULD RESULT IN GUSTIER
WINDS, MVFR CIGS, AND BRIEFLY REDUCED VISIBILITY. VFR WILL RETURN
WEDNESDAY EVENING, THOUGH GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AND MOSTLY CLOUDY
SKIES WILL REMAIN.
KPUB...
FAIRLY LIGHT EAST WINDS WILL PAIR WITH INCREASING CLOUD COVER
TONIGHT. BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, GUSTY SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL SET IN
WITH GUSTS UPWARDS OF 30 KNOTS. BETWEEN 22Z-00Z, THERE IS A CHANCE
THAT PASSING SHOWERS COULD IMPACT THE TERMINAL, LOWERING CIGS TO
MVFR AND BRIEFLY REDUCING VISIBILITY. VFR CONDITIONS RETURN LATER IN
THE EVENING AS SHOWERS MOVE ON, THOUGH GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AROUND
25 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED.

AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1144 PM MDT TUE MAR 31 2026
WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS ONGOING ACROSS THE REGION. THIS IS
MOSTLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN RIGHT NOW, BUT TONIGHT AND THIS
MORNING A TRANSITION TO A RAIN AND SNOW MIX, OR JUST SNOW, IS
POSSIBLE IN HIGHER ELEVATION AREAS. THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO
BRING WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION THROUGH THE DAY, GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING AFTER 00Z. THIS WILL CAUSE MVFR TO LIFR CONDITIONS,
AND DROPS BELOW ILS BREAKPOINTS. STRONG WIND GUSTS ARE EXPECTED
AT MOST TAF SITES, ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE AFTERNOON AS WELL.

WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS ONGOING ACROSS THE REGION. THIS IS
MOSTLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN RIGHT NOW, BUT TONIGHT AND THIS
MORNING A TRANSITION TO A RAIN AND SNOW MIX, OR JUST SNOW, IS
POSSIBLE IN HIGHER ELEVATION AREAS. THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO
BRING WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION THROUGH THE DAY, GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING AFTER 00Z. THIS WILL CAUSE MVFR TO LIFR CONDITIONS,
AND DROPS BELOW ILS BREAKPOINTS. STRONG WIND GUSTS ARE EXPECTED
AT MOST TAF SITES, ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE AFTERNOON AS WELL.

AVIATION...KSLC
SCATTERED SHOWERS IN THE VICINITY OF THE SLC
TERMINAL WILL RESULT IN SOME OCCASIONALLY GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING. WINDS SHOULD BE PREDOMINATELY
WEST TO NORTHWESTERLY BEFORE SOUTHERLY WINDS BECOME MORE
FAVORABLE BY ABOUT 06Z. SHOWERS WILL SHIFT TO STEADY RAIN
OVERNIGHT, MOST LIKELY BEGINNING BETWEEN 08Z AND 10Z, PERSISTING
THROUGH THE MORNING BEFORE PRECIPITATION BECOMES MORE SHOWERY
AGAIN. THERE IS A 40-60 PERCENT CHANCE OF MVFR CONDITIONS DURING
THIS TIME.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS THE
AIRSPACE WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD AND STEADY OVERNIGHT, RESULTING
IN WIDESPREAD MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS, WITH IFR CONDITIONS OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE OCCASIONALLY GUSTY AND
ERRATIC WITH SHOWERS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING. PRECIPITATION
WILL BECOME MORE SHOWERY DURING THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY
AFTERNOON BEFORE TAPERING OFF.

LOW CLOUD HAVE DEVELOPED AROUND KCOD THIS EVENING, AND WILL
REMAIN BELOW 1000 THROUGH THE NIGHT. AN AREA OF VERY PRECIP HAS
MOVED INTO THE KCPR REGION, BUT WILL LIKELY REMAIN NEGLIGIBLE AS
CIGS REMAIN TOO HIGH AT THIS TIME. MAIN ROUND OF PRECIP MOVES
EAST OF THE DIVIDE LATE TONIGHT FOR KCOD AND AFTER 12Z FOR
REMAINING SITES. LOWEST VIS AND CIGS WILL BE DURING THE
AFTERNOON WITH ANY LIGHT RAIN, BEFORE THINNING OUT AROUND
00Z/02.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.

LIGHT SHOWER ACTIVITY IS BEING NOTED ON RADAR IN THE VICINITY
OF KLAR CURRENTLY. WINDS ARE GENERALLY OUT OF THE SOUTH AT 20-25
KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO 30 KNOTS FOR THE SOUTHEASTERN WYOMING
TERMINALS. AT THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE TERMINALS WINDS ARE OUT OF
THE SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST AT 10-15 KNOTS. OVERCAST CONDITIONS
PREVAILING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. CEILINGS WILL DROP TO
AROUND 3000 FEET FROM WEST TO EAST AS AN UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCE
PROPAGATES EAST. IN RESPONSE THE LOW- LEVEL WINDS WILL INCREASE
PARTICULARLY FOR THE NEBRASKA TERMINALS WITH GUSTS TO THE 30S
POSSIBLE. RAIN CHANCES INCREASE STARTING AROUND 17Z TOMORROW AT
WYOMING TERMINALS THEN SPREAD EAST TO NEBRASKA AROUND 20Z.
PERIODS OF MODERATE RAIN ARE LIKELY WITH SOME PROB 30 CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON. EXPECT CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES
TO DROP TO MVFR FOR TERMINALS WITH THE ONSET OF RAIN AND IFR
DURING THUNDERSTORMS.

AS OF LATE TONIGHT, LINGER CLOUD DECKS WHERE STILL PRESENT ON THE
LATEST SATELLITE, BUT SHOULD HAVE NO IMPACTS TO THE TERMINALS FOR
THE OVERNIGHT. INSTEAD FOCUS IS TURNING TOWARDS THE DISTURBANCE
SET TO MOVE ACROSS THE PANHANDLES DURING THE LATE MORNING AND
AFTERNOON TIME FRAME. PRESENTLY THERE CONTINUES TO BE GOOD
POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS TO BE SEEN IN THE VICINITY OF THE ALL THREE
TERMINALS AS THE DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS, BUT IMPACTS TO THE
THEM ARE LIKELY TO BE MINOR DUE TO HOW LITTLE MOISTURE WILL BE
PRESENT IN OUR WEST. AT THIS TIME, BEST CHANCES ARE LIKELY TO
COME AROUND SUNSET, BEFORE QUICKLY TAPERING OFF AS THE DISTURBANCE
PUSHES EASTWARD.

A MOIST STORM SYSTEM CROSSING THE AIRSPACE THE NEXT 24 HRS WILL
CREATE VARIOUS IMPACTS TO AVIATION, INCLUDING; ICING, TURBULENCE,
LLWS, RAIN, ISOLATED STORMS, AREAS OF MVFR, AND MT OBSCURATIONS.
TOP-DOWN MOISTENING WILL ALLOW CIGS TO LOWER OVERNIGHT WITH THE
FIRST WAVE OF LIGHT RAIN AND VERY HIGH TERRAIN SNOW DEVELOPING
NOW ALONG AND WEST OF THE CENTRAL MT CHAIN. THE HIGHEST CHANCE
FOR MVFR AND LCL IFR THRU SUNRISE WILL BE OVER NORTHWEST NM. A
LULL IS EXPECTED WEDNESDAY MORNING FOLLOWED BY A SECOND WAVE OF
RAIN AND ISOLATED STORMS AS A PACIFIC COLD FRONT MOVES EAST ACROSS
THE REGION WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. MT OBSCURATIONS WILL CONTINUE
WITH PERIODS OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS FROM MORE PERSISTENT RAIN ALONG
AND WEST OF THE CENTRAL MT CHAIN. WEST WINDS WILL BECOME STRONG
AS WELL WITH GUSTS OF 35-45KT EXPECTED OVER EASTERN NM WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON. THERE IS A 10-20% CHANCE OF WIND GUSTS >35KT AT KABQ
BETWEEN 1PM AND 5PM. PARTIAL CLEARING WILL OCCUR FROM WEST TO
EAST AFTER SUNSET WITH DECREASING WINDS MOST AREAS. THE EAST
SLOPES OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MTS WILL REMAIN WINDY AS MT WAVE
ACTION AMPLIFIES AND CREATES DOWNSLOPE WIND GUSTS UP TO 45KT
