SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0418 UTC WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 2026
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.

A SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE AREA TODAY, LEADING TO MVFR TO
IFR CONDITIONS AT TERMINALS FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD. THE MORNING WILL
BRING THE MOST WIDESPREAD IMPACTS, ESPECIALLY WITH CEILINGS. THE

A SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE AREA TODAY, LEADING TO PERIODS
OF MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS AT TERMINALS. WITH PRECIPITATION FALLING
AS RAIN, LOWER CEILINGS WILL BE THE MOST WIDESPREAD IMPACT. HOWEVER,
CONFIDENCE HAS GENERALLY DECREASED ON PERSISTENT, PREVAILING IMPACTS
THIS AFTERNOON AS RAIN BECOMES MORE SCATTERED, AND HAVE GONE WITH
TEMPO OR PROB30 GROUPS AT SEVERAL TERMINALS. RAIN DECREASES AFTER
00Z THURSDAY AS THIS WAVE MOVES OUT, WITH THE NEXT WAVE BRINGING
MORE PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND LOWER CEILINGS AROUND OR AFTER 12Z.

ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING,
MAINLY BETWEEN ~22-02Z. VFR CONDITIONS WILL OTHERWISE PREVAIL
THROUGH THE EVENING. MVFR CEILINGS ARE ANTICIPATED TO DEVELOP A
FEW HOURS AFTER THE 06Z TAF, ~06-12Z THU. E WINDS AT ~10 KNOTS
WILL VEER TO THE SE AND INCREASE TO 15-25 KNOTS A FEW HOURS
AFTER SUNRISE. WINDS WILL FURTHER VEER TO THE SSE AND INCREASE
TO 20-30 KNOTS DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON, AS A LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM IN CO DEEPENS AND TRACKS EAST TOWARD THE CO-KS BORDER.
SOUTH WINDS WILL WEAKEN TO 10-15 KNOTS SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET
(~02-03Z THU) AND MAY BECOME VARIABLE DURING THE LATE EVENING,
AS THE SURFACE LOW TRACKS EASTWARD OVER WESTERN KS. WINDS WILL
SHIFT TO THE NW AND INCREASE TO 20-30 KNOTS ON THE WESTERN
PERIPHERY OF THE DEPARTING SURFACE LOW NEAR THE END OF THE TAF
PERIOD (~06-12Z THU).
MCK: VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL THROUGH EARLY TO
MID AFTERNOON. MVFR CEILINGS ARE ANTICIPATED TO DEVELOP DURING
THE LATE AFTERNOON (~21Z), WITH CEILINGS LOWERING TO IFR
BY/AROUND SUNSET. CEILINGS MAY FURTHER DETERIORATE TO LIFR
DURING THE LATE EVENING, AT/NEAR THE END OF THE 06Z TAF PERIOD.
SCATTERED SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING, MAINLY ~23-04Z. LIGHT NE WINDS WILL VEER TO THE E AND
INCREASE TO 10-15 KNOTS AROUND SUNRISE (~13Z). WINDS WILL
FURTHER VEER TO THE ESE-SE AND INCREASE TO 15-25 KNOTS DURING
THE EARLY AFTERNOON, AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IN CO DEEPENS AND
TRACKS EAST TOWARD THE CO-KS BORDER. BREEZY SE WINDS WILL BACK
TO THE E AND DECREASE TO 10-15 KNOTS DURING THE LATE EVENING, AS
THE SURFACE LOW TRACKS EASTWARD OVER WESTERN KS. WINDS WILL

(12Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 606 AM CDT WED APR 1 2026
AS OF EARLY THIS MORNING, LATEST RADAR WAS SEEING SOME WEAK
SHOWERS ALREADY STARTING TO MOVE INTO THE FAR NORTHWESTERN
PANHANDLES WITH SOME BROKEN CLOUD DECKS NOT FAR BEHIND. THESE
SHOWERS ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN IN THE VICINITY OF THE NORTHERN
TERMINALS THROUGH THE MORNING WITH BETTER CHANCES AT IMPACTS
COMING THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. CURRENTLY ANY IMPACTS WOULD BE
MINOR AS SHOWERS IN THE AREA WILL BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE.
OTHERWISE, LOOK FOR STRONG GUST TO BE PRESENT AT KDHT WITH
POTENTIAL SEE SOUTHWESTERLY GUSTS UPWARDS OF 40KT THIS AFTERNOON.

A MOIST STORM SYSTEM CROSSING THE AIRSPACE TODAY WILL LEAD TO
VARIOUS AVIATION HAZARDS, INCLUDING; ICING, TURBULENCE, LLWS,
RAIN, ISOLATED STORMS, MT OBSCURATIONS, AND PERIODS OF MVFR.
THE FIRST WAVE OF RAIN HAS FOCUSED OVER NORTHERN AND CENTRAL NM
THIS MORNING BUT WILL TAPER OFF AFTER SUNRISE. A SECOND WAVE OF
RAIN WITH ISOLATED STORMS WILL MOVE INTO WESTERN NM THIS MORNING
THEN SHIFT EAST ALONG A PACIFIC COLD FRONT. MEANWHILE, SOUTHWEST
TO WEST WINDS WILL BEGIN TO STRENGTHEN WITH GUSTS OF 35 TO 45KT
COMMON OVER EASTERN NM FROM NOON TO 6PM. STORMS OVER NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL NM WILL ALSO BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG GUSTY WINDS.
CLEARING WILL OCCUR FROM WEST TO EAST EARLY THIS EVENING WITH
GRADUALLY DECREASING WINDS THRU MIDNIGHT. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE
FROM MT WAVES AMPLIFYING ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE SANGRE DE
CRISTO MTS TONIGHT WHERE WESTERLY GUSTS UP TO 45KT ARE POSSIBLE.
