DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2043 UTC WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 2026
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 1151 AM MDT WED APR 1 2026
SHOWERS HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP AND MOVE OFF OF THE FOOTHILLS
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. COVERAGE WILL BE SPOTTY FOR THE NEXT COUPLE
OF HOURS, BEFORE COVERAGE INCREASES FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING. RAIN SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED IN AND AROUND ALL TAF
SITES FROM AROUND 20Z TO 3Z GIVE OR TAKE AN HOUR. ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON, BUT CONFIDENCE IN
LOCATION AND COVERAGE IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE IN A PREVAILING GROUP
AT THIS TIME. SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE OFF TO THE EAST AWAY
FROM OUR TAF SITES BETWEEN 2Z AND 4Z, WITH POTENTIAL TO LINGER A
BIT LONGER AT DIA. CEILINGS WILL START TO SCATTER OUT AS THE
SHOWERS MOVE OUT OF THE AREA, WITH A LOW CHANCE FOR PATCHY LOW
CLOUDS OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
TODAY, WITH SPEEDS MAINLY LESS THAN 11KTS. THE EXCEPTION TO THIS
WILL BE OCCASIONAL WIND GUSTS AROUND 25KTS FROM NEARBY SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS. SKIES WILL BE MOSTLY CLEAR FOR TOMORROW MORNING AND
EARLY AFTERNOON, WITH WINDS INCREASING OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST
AROUND 14KTS FOR DIA STARTING AROUND 20 OR 21Z.

SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1806 UTC WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 2026
AVIATION...KSLC
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE REMAINDER
OF THE DAY TODAY WITH PERSISTENT RAIN SHOWERS TAPERING OFF THROUGH
THE EARLY AFTERNOON. THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON, HOWEVER, THERE IS
AROUND A 30% CHANCE THAT RAIN SHOWERS MOVE OVER THE TERMINAL.
ADDITIONALLY, LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE DAY, HOWEVER, RAIN SHOWERS MOVING TO THE NORTH OF
THE TERMINAL WILL BRING POTENTIAL FOR A BRIEF WIND SHIFT TO THE
NORTH. OTHERWISE, CLOUD COVER DECREASES LATER THIS AFTERNOON BUT
WILL QUICKLY BUILD AGAIN OVERNIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
A MIX OF VFR AND MVFR/IFR
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL AREA TODAY
AS RAIN CONTINUES INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON. COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WILL
BE MAINTAINED NEAR TERRAIN FEATURES THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, THOUGH
OVERALL COVERAGE WILL DECREASE AFTER 19-20Z. BRIEF CLEARING OF SKIES
IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON, HOWEVER, LOWER LEVEL CLOUD COVER WILL
INCREASE ONCE AGAIN DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. A COLD FRONT WILL
PASS THROUGH THE AREA ON THURSDAY MORNING, BRINGING GUSTY NORTHERLY
WINDS ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING.
