AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1104 PM MDT SAT JUN 27 2026
A WEAK COOL FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA BETWEEN 08Z AND 09Z
WITH A BRIEF SHIFT TO NORTH WINDS. BY 10Z WINDS WILL BE LIGHT
AND VARIABLE. ON SUN, WINDS WILL BECOME S TO SE BY 14Z, HOWEVER,
IT'S NOT CLEAR AS TO WIND DIRECTIONS BY 18Z. IT'S CERTAINLY
POSSIBLE A DENVER CYCLONE WILL DEVELOP WITH A BOUNDARY BISECTING
THE AREA THRU THE AFTN. AS A RESULT MAY SEE VARYING WIND
DIRECTIONS AT DIA AND BJC. APA WILL PROBABLY HAVE A SOUTH WIND BY
16Z WHICH WILL BECOME MORE SW BY 20Z WITH GUSTY WINDS AT TIMES.
FOR NOW, HAVE SHOWN THE DENVER CYCLONE AND ASSOCIATED BOUNDARY TO
STAY NORTH OF DIA SO HAVE KEPT GUSTY SOUTH WINDS BY 18ZX WHICH
WILL BECOME MORE SW BY 21Z. IF CYCLONE AND BOUNDARY STAY SOUTH OF
DIA THEN WINDS MAY HAVE A MORE EAST OR NORTHEAST DIRECTION IN THE
AFTN. FINALLY, REGARDING SMOKE FROM FIRES OVER UT AND WRN CO,
LATEST HRRR MOVES MOST OF IT TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE AREA BY 12Z
AND DOESN'T MOVE IT BACK INTO THE AREA UNTIL SUN NIGHT.

KSLC...BREEZY NORTHWESTERLY WINDS GRADUALLY TAPER OVERNIGHT,
BECOMING LIGHT AFTER ~9Z. NORTHWEST WINDS REINVIGORATE AFTER 18Z,
WITH GUSTS TO 20 KTS THROUGH THE EVENING. THERE IS A LOW-END (10%)

OTHERWISE, DRY CONDITIONS PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD UNDER A
PERSISTENT MID-LEVEL CLOUD DECK.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR CONDITIONS CONTINUE FOR
ALL TERMINALS THROUGH THE PERIOD. BREEZY POST-FRONTAL
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS ONGOING ACROSS MOST OF THE NORTHERN PORTION OF
THE AIRSPACE WILL TAPER OFF OVERNIGHT. BREEZY SOUTHWEST WINDS
CONTINUE ACROSS SOUTHERN AND SOUTHEAST UTAH OVERNIGHT, BECOMING
STRONG AGAIN WITH GUSTS 30-40 MPH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THERE ARE LOW-
END (10-20%) CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO IMPACT
TERMINALS ACROSS FAR NORTHERN UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING, WITH MAIN CONCERNS BEING LIGHTNING AND
PERIODS OF DECREASED CIGS.
