DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 2130 UTC FRIDAY, JUNE 5, 2026
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY/
ISSUED AT 1135 AM MDT FRI JUN 5 2026
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGHOUT THE TAF PERIOD. GOES-19
SATELLITE IMAGERY EARLIER THIS MORNING DEPICTED SOME LOW CLOUDS
ACROSS NORTHEAST COLORADO AS CLOSE TO THE TAF SITES AS NORTHEAST
MORGAN COUNTY. THESE CLOUDS HAVE SINCE SCATTERED OUT. SOME MID-
LEVEL CLOUDS ARE MOVING OVER KDEN AT THE PRESENT TIME.
FOR THIS AFTERNOON, VIRGA SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED MAINLY FOR AREAS
NEAR THE PALMER DIVIDE, POTENTIALLY INCLUDING KAPA WHERE A TEMPO
IS IN PLACE. KDEN COULD NARROWLY AVOID THESE VIRGA SHOWERS TODAY,
BUT SOME GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS TO AROUND 25 KTS ARE STILL POSSIBLE
FROM THESE SHOWERS LOCATED TO THE SOUTH. NO IMPACTS FROM VIRGA
ARE EXPECTED TODAY AT KBJC.
WINDS WILL TURN TO DRAINAGE TONIGHT, BUT WILL STILL BE AROUND 10
KTS. WINDS SHOULD HAVE A SOUTHERLY TO SOUTHWESTERLY COMPONENT FOR
MOST OF THE DAY TOMORROW. FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON, HAVE INTRODUCED
A PROB30 FOR VIRGA SHOWERS. THE LATEST HRRR MODEL RUNS HAVE
DEPICTED SCATTERED VIRGA SHOWERS, DCAPE AS HIGH AS 1500 J/KG, AND
DECENT MID-LEVEL MOISTURE. OTHER CAMS ARE ALSO SHOWING SOME
SCATTERED VIRGA SHOWERS NEAR THE TAF SITES. THESE SHOWERS COULD
PRODUCE WIND GUSTS AS HIGH AS 30 KTS AND BRIEFLY LOWER THE CLOUD
DECK TO ABOUT 10000 FT AGL.

AVIATION...KSLC
VFR CONDITIONS PERSIST THROUGH THE PERIOD. CLEAR
SKIES THROUGH THIS EVENING GIVES WAY TO INCREASING MID TO HIGH LEVEL
CLOUDS OVERNIGHT. GENERALLY LIGHT NORTHWEST WINDS SHIFT
SOUTHEASTERLY AFTER 03Z, BEFORE INCREASING OUT OF THE SOUTH AFTER
09Z. IF WINDS MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE (80% CHANCE), GUSTS MAY EXCEED
30 KTS AT TIMES THROUGH THE MORNING. THERE IS A 20% CHANCE THAT
WINDS DO NOT MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE, INSTEAD CREATING POTENTIAL FOR
LLWS. OTHERWISE, GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS WITH GUSTS TO 25 KTS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AFTER 18Z.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING
VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL FOR ALL
REGIONAL TERMINALS, WITH GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
AIRSPACE AND INCREASING MID TO HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS ACROSS THE NORTHERN
AIRSPACE. GENERALLY LIGHT DIURNAL WINDS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THIS
EVENING, GRADUALLY INCREASING OUT OF THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST EARLY IN
THE MORNING, WITH WIDESPREAD GUSTS 20-30 KTS THROUGH THE EVENING.
