AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY/
ISSUED AT 1104 AM MDT SAT APR 4 2026
THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN DRY AND VFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS THE ENTIRE
TAF PERIOD WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS ARE
FORECAST AT KCPR, KRKS, KPNA, AND KBPI THROUGH ROUGHLY 01Z/02Z
SUNDAY. WINDS AT ALL OTHER TERMINALS REMAIN 11 KTS OR LESS. EXPECT
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES WITH OCCASIONAL MID-LEVEL CLOUDS, ESPECIALLY
AROUND NEAR KCOD, KPNA, AND LND.
PLEASE SEE THE AVIATION WEATHER CENTER AND/OR CWSU ZDV AND ZLC FOR
THE LATEST INFORMATION ON ICING AND TURBULENCE FORECASTS.
CHEYENNE AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1936 UTC SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 2026
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY/
ISSUED AT 1135 AM MDT SAT APR 4 2026
VFR IS EXPECTED TO PREVAIL TODAY, BUT MOST TERMINALS WILL SEE
SCATTERED CUMULUS CLOUD DEVELOPMENT IN THE 4K TO 8K FT RANGE
WITH THE DAY'S HEATING. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL ALSO CONTINUE
THROUGH SUNSET TODAY, WITH GUSTS GENERALLY 25 TO 35 KNOTS. A FEW
GUSTS TO AROUND 40 KNOTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. WINDS AND CLOUD COVER
WILL DECREASE AFTER SUNSET. THERE REMAINS A VERY SLIGHT CHANCE
FOR SOME SHALLOW FOG DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING,
BUT THE PROBABILITY IS TOO LOW (10%) TO ADD TO THE TAF AT THIS
TIME.
