20-21Z. KCOS WILL SEE THE BEST CHANCE OF -TSRA AT THE TERMINAL
WHICH WILL BE CARRIED IN A PROB30 GROUP THROUGH 00Z. KPUB IS
MORE LIKELY TO SEE ENHANCED OUTFLOW WINDS BUT NO RAINFALL, SO
VCSH SHOULD SUFFICE TO REFLECT CONVECTIVE ENHANCEMENT TO THE
WIND. OTHERWISE WINDS WILL SHIFT FROM THE WEST TO NORTHWEST AT
BOTH TERMINALS AND DECREASE TOWARDS 03-04Z.
ENHANCED SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AT KALS WITH
VCSH POSSIBLE AT TIMES THROUGH SUN MORNING. WINDS PICK UP IN
EARNEST AROUND 16Z WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTING UP TO 35 MPH BY
LATE MORNING AND UP TO 45 MPH THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON. ANOTHER
ROUND OF SHOWERS COULD PASS IN THE VICINITY OF THE TERMINAL
DURING THE AFTERNOON, BUT ODDS LOOK LOWER THAN THIS MORNING SO
WILL NOT INCLUDE IN THE AFTERNOON TAF PERIODS JUST YET. -KT

GRAND JUNCTION AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0543 UTC SUNDAY, APRIL 26, 2026
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1141 PM MDT SAT APR 25 2026
OVERNIGHT SHOWERS WILL COVER MOST OF THE AREA WITH ILS TO IFR
CONDITIONS DEVELOPING IN LIGHT PRECIPITATION AND LOWER CLOUDS.
AS WE MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY, INSTABILITY INCREASES INTRODUCING
THE THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS. THE HEAVIER PRECIPITATION RATES
COULD LEAD TO IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS FOR BRIEF PERIODS. GUSTY WINDS
NEAR STORMS AND SHOWERS ARE LIKELY TOMORROW AFTERNOON AS WELL.

A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN NEAR THE COLORADO AND WYOMING BORDER
TONIGHT BEFORE SLOWLY LIFTING NORTHEAST SLOWLY AS A WARM FRONT AHEAD
OF THE NEXT PACIFIC UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. WIDESPREAD LOW CIGS AND
IFR CONDITIONS, PERIODS OF RAIN AND SNOW, AND SOME FOG POSSIBLE IN
BETWEEN BANDS OF SHOWERS THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: IFR CIGS ARE DEVELOPING ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE WESTERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE WITH EAST TO SOUTHEAST WINDS. EXPECT
THESE WINDS TO CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF SUNDAY, SO TRANSITIONED TO
PREVAILING IFR TO LIFR CIGS FOR ALL WESTERN NEBRASKA TERMINALS. KCDR
WILL BE THE LAST TO SEE IFR CONDITIONS...TOWARDS DAYBREAK SUNDAY.
PERIODS OF RAINFALL AND/OR SNOW/RAIN MIX WILL RESULT IN BRIEF MVFR
CONDITIONS AT TIMES.
LOWER CONFIDENCE FOR THE SOUTHEAST WYOMING TERMINALS WITH SOME DELAY
IN TIMING AND ANOTHER BAND OF SNOW LIFTING FROM SOUTH TO NORTH EARLY
SUNDAY MORNING. KLAR AND KRWL HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF SEEING
ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL FROM THIS WARM FRONT AS IT SLOWLY LIFTS NORTH,
SO ADDED SOME MENTION OF SNOW AND IFR CONDITIONS. KCYS HAS THE BEST
CHANCE TO SEE LOCALLY DENSE FOG WITH MODELS BECOMING MORE AGGRESSIVE
WITH LOWERING VIS. ADDED VIS BETWEEN 1/2 TO 1 MILE THROUGH 13Z
SUNDAY.

LOW CEILINGS WILL IMPACT BOTH KGLD AND KMCK FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY SUNDAY. AT KMCK,
MORNING SHOWERS AND PERHAPS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM WILL
RESULT IN OCCASIONAL VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS, ENDING BY AROUND
17Z. AT KGLD, MID AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE, WITH ABOUT A 30% CHANCE OF DIRECTLY IMPACTING THE
TERMINAL WITH REDUCTIONS IN VISIBILITY AND CEILINGS. A SEVERE
STORM CANNOT BE RULED OUT AT KGLD, WHICH WOULD ADDITIONALLY
BRING A THREAT OF HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS.

THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY. THERE IS STILL A RISK OF SOME
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AREA, BUT AGAIN, VERY ISOLATED NATURE WILL
PRECLUDE ME FROM MAKING MENTION OF THEM IN THE TAFS. SOME
MOMENTS OF DRIZZLE AND LIGHT RAIN WILL BE ADDED TO HYS, WHERE
THE GREATEST CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION EXISTS THERE. WINDS WILL
BE 10-15 KNOTS.

CHANCE THAT CIGS WILL FALL BELOW 3,000FT OVER NORTHWEST NM. THE
