DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0029 UTC FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 2026
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/
ISSUED AT 628 PM MDT THU APR 2 2026
A BRIEF PERIOD OF SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL ARRIVE AT KDEN AROUND
01Z AND WE HAVE INCLUDED A TEMPO GROUP FOR 22KT GUSTS. THE NEXT
MAJOR WIND SHIFT ACROSS THE REGION WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 04Z AND 06Z
AS A COLD FRONT BRINGS GUSTY NORTH WINDS AND ENOUGH MOISTURE FOR A
SCT TO BKN DECK AT 10000FT. HOWEVER, WE DO NOT EXPECT LOW CEILINGS
TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THIS COLD FRONT. WHILE IT IS POSSIBLE GUSTY
NORTH WINDS COULD LINGER INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS, THE MAIN
CONCERN FOR WINDS IS A PERIOD OF W-NW WINDS BEGINNING AT 12Z.
WIDESPREAD GUSTS IN THE 30-40KT RANGE ARE LIKELY, WITH THE
POTENTIAL FOR A FEW 50KT GUSTS AT KBJC. PATCHY BLOWING DUST COULD
OCCUR IN THE MORNING (14-18Z). WINDS WILL GRADUALLY START TO
DECREASE AROUND 18Z WITH 20KT GUSTS STILL POSSIBLE THROUGH SUNSET.

SALT LAKE CITY AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1920 UTC THURSDAY, APRIL 2, 2026
AVIATION...KSLC
PERIODS OF SNOW WITH VARIABLE VIS/CIG BETWEEN IFR
AND MVFR THROUGH ABOUT 22Z, WHEN CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE
TO VFR/OCCASIONALLY MVFR. OCCASIONALLY GUSTY NW WINDS IN THE 20-30KT
RANGE WILL DECREASE THIS EVENING, MAINLY AFTER 00Z, TO 5-12KTS.
LARGEST SOURCE OF UNCERTAINTY WITH THIS FORECAST PACKAGE REVOLVES
AROUND LAKE EFFECT POTENTIAL. ANTICIPATE OCCASIONAL PULSES OF
SHOWERS MOVING OFF THE LAKE AND ACROSS THE NORTHERN SALT LAKE VALLEY
AND EXTREME SOUTHERN DAVIS COUNTY. THIS ACTIVITY COULD BEGIN AS
EARLY AS 03Z, OR AS LATE AS 09Z. CONFIDENCE IS HIGHER THAT ANY LAKE
EFFECT ACTIVITY WILL END BY AROUND 12Z FRIDAY MORNING. WITH ANY LAKE
EFFECT SHOWER, QUICK REDUCTIONS IN VIS/CIG TO IFR CANNOT BE RULED
OUT, WITH PERIODS OF VFR IN BETWEEN SHOWERS. PRECIPITATION TYPE
LIKELY A MIX OF SNOW AND GRAUPEL WITH ANY LAKE EFFECT.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING.
STRONG COLD FRONT WORKING
SOUTHWARD ACROSS CENTRAL UTAH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THE FRONT WILL
EXIT INTO ARIZONA BETWEEN 03-05Z. BURST OF N WINDS IN THE 25-35KT
RANGE HAS BEEN COMMON ALONG/IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE FRONT. LOCALLY
STRONGER NW-N GUSTS WILL BE OBSERVED IN WIND-PRONE LOCATIONS SUCH AS
CANYONS AND RIDGETOPS. ACROSS NORTHERN/CENTRAL UTAH AND SW WYOMING,
WIDESPREAD SNOW WITH MVFR TO IFR CATEGORIES AND MOUNTAIN OBSCURATION
COMMON ACROSS HIGH TERRAIN AREAS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH BETWEEN 00Z-
06Z. EXCEPTION WILL BE PORTIONS OF THE WASATCH RANGE SUCH AS THE
UPPER COTTONWOODS WHERE SNOW AND MOUNTAIN OBSCURATION WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL AS LATE AS 12Z FRIDAY. PATCHY VFR/MVFR CIGS WILL PERSIST INTO
EARLY FRIDAY EVENING ACROSS NORTHERN UTAH, ESPECIALLY OVER/NEAR HIGH
TERRAIN.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/
ISSUED AT 412 PM MDT THU APR 2 2026
IMPACTFUL AVIATION WEATHER IS FORECAST OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS,
WITH WIDESPREAD MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS DUE TO PERIODS OF SNOW,
ALONG WITH BREEZY WINDS GUSTING 20 TO 30 KT. PLAN ON WIDESPREAD
MOUNTAIN OBSCURATIONS. HIT-OR-MISS SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING, MOVING ROUGHLY FROM SOUTHWEST TO
NORTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION. SNOW LEVELS DECREASE THIS EVENING,
SO RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE BECOME SNOW SHOWERS BY SUNSET. THE CORE
OF THE INCOMING WEATHER SYSTEM REMAINS ON TRACK TO BRING
SEVERAL HOURS OF MORE PERSISTENT SNOW TO WESTERN WYOMING
VALLEYS THIS EVENING, BETWEEN 03/0100Z AND 03/0500Z, INCLUDING
AT SITES SUCH AS KJAC.
AFTER 03/0500Z, SNOW (MODERATE TO HEAVY AT TIMES) WILL DEVELOP
OVER NORTHERN WYOMING BASINS, INCLUDING FOR LOCATIONS LIKE KGEY,
KBYG, AND KWRL. WINDS WILL SHIFT FROM WESTERLY TO NORTHERLY FOR
LOCATIONS EAST OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE AS SNOW MOVES IN, WITH
GUSTS 30 TO 40 KT ACCOMPANYING THE COLD FRONT. THIS SNOW WILL
CONTINUE WELL INTO THE MORNING HOURS, TAPERING OFF FOR MOST
AROUND 03/1800Z. HOWEVER, LIGHT PRECIPITATION LINGERS LONGER
FOR LOCATIONS IN CENTRAL WYOMING, SUCH AS KCPR, AS PERSISTENT
LIGHT UPSLOPE FLOW REMAINS UNTIL AROUND SUNSET FRIDAY.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/
ISSUED AT 551 PM MDT THU APR 2 2026
SCATTER SNOW SHOWERS ARE REDUCING VISIBILITIES BETWEEN 1 1/2 AND
1/4 STATUTE MILES AT KRWL CURRENTLY. THIS SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY
IS MOVING EAST WHERE IT MAY BEGIN TO IMPACT KLAR IN THE NEXT FEW
HOURS WITH REDUCED VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE. SHOWER ACTIVITY IS
ALSO BEING OBSERVED AT THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE TERMINALS.
PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT ALONG
WITH A COLD FRONT PASSAGE BEFORE 06Z FOR ALL TERMINALS. EXPECT
AN INCREASE OF WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH/NORTHWEST TO 30 OR 35
KNOTS. SOME BRIEF STRONGER GUSTS TO 45 KTS CANNOT BE RULED OUT.
DURING THE DAY FRIDAY THIS STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST, HOWEVER
WINDS WILL INCREASE AT TERMINALS WITH THE TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENTS AS IT DOES. SOME WIND GUSTS MAY REACH 50 KNOTS OR
GREATER AT TERMINALS PARTICULARLY AT KCYS. WINDS BETWEEN 35-45
KNOTS AT OTHER TERMINAL LOCATIONS. RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS ARE
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE DAY FRIDAY PERIODICALLY
REDUCING CONDITIONS TO MVFR OR IFR BRIEFLY.
