DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 0058 UTC TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2026
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 554 PM MDT MON SEP 28 2026
TODAY'S SHOWERS HAVE MOVED OUT OF THE TAF SITES AND REMAIN
GENERALLY NORTH, EAST, AND SOUTH OF THEM ALL AT THIS TIME, WITH A
FEW SHOWERS OBSERVED ON RADAR OVER THE MOUNTAINS TO THEIR WEST.
THERE REMAIN SOME UNCERTAINTIES WITH THIS LATEST TAF PACKAGE, AS
AMPLE MOISTURE REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS THE AREA FOR FURTHER
SHOWERS TO BE POSSIBLE PRETTY MUCH THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. WATER
VAPOR IMAGERY ALSO SHOWS A STEADY PLUME OF TROPICAL MOISTURE
CONTINUES TO MOVE INTO THE REGION, WITH A HIGH-IMPACT RAIN EVENT
STILL LOOKING POSSIBLE FOR PORTIONS OF COLORADO LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY.
THE MAIN IMPACTS FOR THIS TAF PACKAGE WILL BE WITH LOW STRATUS
BRINGING PERIODS OF MVFR THROUGHOUT THE TAF PERIOD. GUIDANCE
CONTINUES TO SHOW POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER WAVE OF LIGHT SHOWERS
LATER THIS EVENING BEFORE A COLD FRONT BRINGS A NORTHERLY WIND
SHIFT IN THE EARLY MORNING. WE SHOULD SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF SW TO
NW WINDS BEFORE THE COLD FRONT COMES BETWEEN 13-14Z. LIGHT SHOWERS
WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE FRONT, AND CEILINGS ARE EXPECTED TO
GRADUALLY LOWER WITH THE NORTHERLY FLOW. WHILE SOME OF THE MOS
GUIDANCE SHOWS A BRIEF PERIOD OF IFR DEVELOPING BETWEEN 15Z TO
18Z, MOST FORECAST SOUNDINGS KEEP THE LOWEST CEILINGS HOVERING
AROUND 3,000 TO 4,000 FEET AGL, WITH THE BEST CHANCES FOR THE
LOWEST CEILINGS TO OCCUR AT KAPA/KBJC. HAVE KEPT PROB30S IN PLAY
THROUGH THE PERIOD, BUT THESE MAY BE TRIMMED BACK ON THE NEXT AMD.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 542 PM MDT MON SEP 28 2026
SHOWERS AND A FEW EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ONGOING WITH BROKEN

CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST TONIGHT BEFORE A BREAK NEAR
SUNRISE. SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP OVER SOUTHERN
COLORADO TOMORROW MORNING. WINDS WILL BE GENERALLY LIGHT AND
TERRAIN DRIVEN UNDER THESE SHOWERS. WHERE HEAVIER RAINFALL IS
PRESENT, EXPECT FLIGHT CONDITIONS TO VARY BETWEEN LOW END VFR
AND MVFR, DUE TO LOW CIGS AND VISIBILITY CONSTRAINTS. ILS
BREAKPOINTS WILL LIKELY BE MET FOR SOME TERMINALS AND MOUNTAIN
OBSTRUCTIONS WILL BE COMMON.

AVIATION
KSLC...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST AT THE KSLC TERMINAL THROUGH THE
ENTIRE TAF PERIOD. CHANCES FOR SOME SHOWERS AT THE TERMINAL REMAIN
LOW BUT POSSIBLE THROUGH 08Z AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE
AREA. THE TERMINAL IS CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING LIGHT EAST-SOUTHEAST
WINDS, WHICH IS FORECAST TO SWITCH TO ELEVATED NORTHWEST WINDS
THROUGH MUCH OF TOMORROW, WITH GUSTS UP TO 20KTS.
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL
ACROSS ALL TERMINALS. CHANCES FOR SHOWERS REMAIN POSSIBLE ACROSS
MOST TAF SITES THROUGH 8Z, ESPECIALLY AT THE SOUTHERN TERMINALS. A
COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH MUCH OF THE AREA, RESULTING IN VFR
CONDITIONS WITH ENHANCED NW FLOW ACROSS ALL NORTHERN TAF SITES.
HOWEVER, KCDC AND KSGU WILL CONTINUE TO SEE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS CARRY IN THROUGH MUCH OF TOMORROW.

REMAINS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE, THOUGH THE BEST CHANCES APPEAR TO BE AT

VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE TERMINALS FOR THE

WHERE BR MAY FORM AND OBSCURE VIS DOWN TO 4SM. OTHERWISE NO
OTHER AVIATION CONCERNS FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS WINDS WILL
REMAIN LIGHT AND VARIABLE. ADDITIONAL MOISTURE WILL PUSH IN FROM
THE SOUTH, INCREASING CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION FOR KCYS, KAIA,
AND KSNY. AT THIS TIME, CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THE PLACEMENT AND
TIMING, SO KEPT ANY MENTION OUT OF THE TAFS FOR THIS FORECAST
PERIOD.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 439 PM MDT MON SEP 28 2026
FOR KGLD & KMCK... VFR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST FOR THE FIRST 6
TO 12 HOURS, THOUGH SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY APPROACH THE
TERMINALS. KGLD SHOULD HAVE STORMS NEAR THE TERMINAL AROUND THE
START UNLESS THE LINE THAT IS ABOUT 50 MILES WEST FALLS APART.
KMCK IS MORE LIKELY TO HAVE SHOWERS AND A LOWER CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION. THAT CHANGES AROUND 12Z WHEN SHOWER CHANCES
INCREASE, CEILINGS LOWER THROUGH 18Z TO NEAR 1000FT, AND FOG MAY
FORM. THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD IS FORECAST TO BE A
COMBINATION OF THESE CONDITIONS, POTENTIALLY LEADING TO POOR
AVIATION CONDITIONS. KEEP AN EYE ON THE CONDITIONS.

LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT WILL CONTINUE AHEAD OF AN UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST. LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND
MARGINAL CONVECTIVE INSTABILITY WILL RESULT IN SHOWER AND
T-STORM DEVELOPMENT FROM WEST TO EAST ON TUESDAY, WITH CIGS
GRADUALLY LOWERING FROM VFR TO MVFR. THE RAINS WILL BECOME MORE
WIDESPREAD LATER IN THE DAY AND SOME REDUCTION IN VISIBILITIES
IS POSSIBLE IN THE HEAVIER SHOWERS. EXPECT WINDS TO GRADUALLY
VEER FROM SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH EARLY IN THE PERIOD, WITH SPEEDS
LOWERING TO THE 8-12 KT RANGE.

THIS TAF PERIOD WILL BE QUITE MESSY ESPECIALLY AFTER 12Z. THERE
MAY BE PERIODS OF VFR BUT EXPECT TO STAY MAINLY MVFR TO EVEN LIFR
AS THERE WILL BE ABUNDANT ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE WITH SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY CONTRIBUTING TO LOW CIGS AND VIS. CANNOT
RULE OUT SOME GUSTY WINDS AROUND 30 KTS WITH A POTENTIAL TO BE
SLIGHTLY HIGHER FOR THUNDERSTORMS. WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAIN FALLS
IN THE PANHANDLES IS A BIT UNCERTAIN WITH ALL THREE TERMINALS
HAVING A POTENTIAL TO BE IMPACTED.

CONDITIONS ARE DETERIORATING FROM WEST TO EAST AS A LARGE AREA OF
RAIN AND ISOLATED STORMS MOVES SLOWLY EAST TOWARD THE RGV LATE
THIS AFTERNOON. THERE ARE >80% PROBABILITIES THAT CIGS WILL FALL
TO MVFR FROM WEST TO EAST TOWARD THE RGV THRU MIDNIGHT THEN INTO
EASTERN NM OVERNIGHT. LOCAL IFR CIGS/VSBYS WILL OCCUR WITH THE
HEAVIER RAINFALL THEN A PERIOD OF MORE WIDESPREAD IFR MAY OCCUR
AROUND TUESDAY MORNING. THE TIMING OF STORM CLUSTERS AND THE
LARGER AREAS OF RAIN WILL BE CHALLENGING SO NUMEROUS UPDATES ARE
LIKELY TO TERMINAL FORECASTS THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. WIDESPREAD
RAIN WITH ISOLATED STORMS IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST OVER MUCH OF THE
REGION THRU TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT.
