AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY/

CURRENT OBSERVATIONS SHOW WINDS ARE ALREADY TURNING SE ACROSS THE
DENVER METRO. WE EXPECT BREEZIER THAN USUAL (10-15KT) SOUTHERLY
DRAINAGE WINDS TONIGHT AT KDEN AND KAPA, AND WEAK (<06KT) WNW-NW
WINDS AT KBJC. THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE (20%) FOR SOME FOG TO DEVELOP
NORTH OF DENVER, MAINLY WEST OF I-25, AROUND SUNRISE BUT WE DON'T
EXPECT ANY MAJOR IMPACTS AT THE AIRPORTS. WINDS MAY BECOME LIGHT
AND VARIABLE IN THE MORNING OR PERHAPS A BIT MORE SOUTHWESTERLY
DUE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A WEAK CYCLONE. HOWEVER, WE EXPECT A
RETURN TO SSE WINDS (~10KT) THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY AND EVENING ON
FRIDAY.
