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.
