DENVER/BOULDER AVIATION DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1151 UTC TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2026
AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 545 AM MDT TUE SEP 29 2026
LOWER CEILINGS ARE APPROACHING THE TERMINALS FROM THE NORTH ALONG
WITH A SHIFT TO NORTHERLY WINDS. KLMO AND KFNL ARE REPORTING
CEILINGS OF ~7000-8000 FT AGL AT THIS HOUR. THE MAIN ISSUE DURING
THIS TAF PERIOD CONTINUES TO BE THE CEILINGS. ONCE THIS FRONT
PUSHES THROUGH OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS, WE EXPECT LOW
STATUS FOR MUCH OF THE DAY. KAPA AND KBJC LOOK TO HAVE THE LOWEST
CEILINGS- APPROACHING 4000 FT AGL. KDEN SHOULD SEE CEILINGS DROP
TO ~6000 FT AGL THIS MORNING AND THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON. WE
EXPECT CEILINGS TO LOWER EVEN A BIT FURTHER FOR THE LATE EVENING
INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. WINDS SHOULD STAY WITH A NORTHERLY
COMPONENT FOR MOST OF THE DAY TODAY.
SHORT-TERM MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW LITTLE TO NO RAINFALL TODAY.
SHOWER CHANCES WILL ONLY BE AROUND 10-20% THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THESE SOLUTIONS SEEM REASONABLE GIVEN SW FLOW ALOFT.
MEANINGFUL RAIN CHANCES START TO ENTER THE PICTURE ~8-10Z TOMORROW
MORNING FROM SOUTH TO NORTH. WE OPTED TO PREVAIL -SHRA STARTING
AT 11Z FOR KDEN, BUT THIS TIMING AND/OR INTENSITY COULD NEED TO
BE ADJUSTED IN FUTURE UPDATES. ANY RAIN SHOWER COULD LOWER
CEILINGS (~2000 FT AGL) AND/OR VISIBILITY (~5 SM), ESPECIALLY WITH
THE STEADIER RAINFALL EXPECTED AFTER 11Z. KAPA APPEARS TO BE THE
MOST FAVORED TERMINAL FOR RAINFALL ON WEDNESDAY.

SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT
24 TO 36 HOURS AS TROPICAL MOISTURE CONTINUES TO OVERSPREAD THE
AREA. TERRAIN OBSCURATION WILL ALSO BE WIDESPREAD LEADING TO
AREAS OF ILS TO MVFR IN ADJACENT VALLEYS AND ASSOCIATED TAF
SITES. LOWER CLOUD LINGERING BEHIND THE MOISTURE COULD ALSO LEAD
TO MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS AS STRATUS AND/OR FOG DEVELOPS.

LARGELY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. MID

LEAVING LARGELY CLEAR SKIES FOR THE AFTERNOON. CLOUDS MAY LINGER
LONGER AROUND KRKS THIS MORNING, WHERE THERE IS AROUND A 15
PERCENT CHANCE OF A SHOWER UNTIL AROUND 14Z. FOG CAN'T BE RULED
OUT IN VICINITY OF KBPI AND KPNA, BUT WITH THE CHANCE LESS THAN
20 PERCENT THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO INCLUDE IN THE

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 504 AM MDT TUE SEP 29 2026
PATCHY FOG AND LOW STRATUS HAVE MOVED INTO THE LARAMIE VALLEY THIS
MORNING WITH KLAR DOWN TO LIFR CONDITIONS. THIS FOG AND LOW STRATUS
SHOULD CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS, BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW.
THE FOG ITSELF IS QUITE SHALLOW, LIKELY REMAINING JUST OVER THE
AIRPORT DUE TO THE TOPOGRAPHICAL BOWL. FLUCTUATIONS TO HIGHER
CATEGORIES WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE SHALLOW FOG AND STRATUS LAYER.
PATCHY FOG AND LOWER STRATUS ARE ALSO ONGOING ACROSS WESTERN
NEBRASKA WITH MOST TERMINALS SEEING CEILINGS BELOW ABOUT 8000FT AGL.
CLOUDS WILL STICK AROUND THROUGHOUT THE DAY AGAIN TODAY WITH WINDS
REMAINING MOSTLY LIGHT. HOWEVER, IFR AND LOWER CONDITIONS SHOULD
START TO SUBSIDE AFTER SUNRISE. ISOLATED SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE
NEAR THE KCYS, KLAR, AND KSNY TERMINALS THIS AFTERNOON.
