AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 512 AM MDT THU OCT 22 2026
WINDS EARLY THIS MORNING HAVE SWITCHED TO LIGHT W/WNW AT DIA BUT
WERE GUSTY FROM THE SW AT APA. BJC WAS LIGHT FROM THE NORTH.
OVERALL WINDS AT DIA THRU 18Z SHOULD STAY LIGHT W OR WNW WHILE
WINDS AT APA SHOULD DECREASE BY 13Z AND REMAIN LIGHT SW. WINDS AT
BJC WILL BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE.
BY 18Z WINDS AT DIA WILL BECOME SE WHILE APA/BJC HAVE A MORE
SSW DIRECTION. THERE IS STILL A 30% CHC OF HIGH BASED SHOWERS BY
21Z WITH A 10% CHC OF A TSTM WHICH WILL LINGER THRU 01Z. WITH
DECENT LOW LEVEL FLOW THIS ACTIVITY MAY ALLOW FOR GUSTY WINDS AT
THE SFC UP TO 30 MPH.
CONFIDENCE AFTER 01Z THIS EVENING WITH RESPECT TO WINDS AND
ADDITIONAL HIGH BASED SHOWERS IS LOW AT THIS TIME. HI RES DATA
HAS BEN INCONSISTENT ON TIMING AND COVERAGE BETWEEN 01Z AND 08Z.
FOR NOW HAVE LEFT VCSH IN THE TAFS THRU THIS PERIOD. WILL KEEP
WINDS THIS EVENING FROM THE SSW. MAY SEE GUSTS AT DIA UP TO 25 MPH
BY 05Z LASTING THRU 10Z.
FINALLY, AS FAR AS CEILINGS, BELIEVE THEY WILL STAY AT OR ABOVE
7000 FT LATER THIS AFTN THRU THE EVENING HOURS AS HIGHER BASED
SHOWER ACTIVITY MOVES ACROSS.

AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY/
ISSUED AT 522 AM MDT THU OCT 22 2026
KALS: VFR, TO AT TIMES POSSIBLY MVFR, CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OVER
THE NEXT 24 HOURS. A SLOW MOVING STORM SYSTEM WILL BE IN PLACE,
BRINGING NUMEROUS ROUND OF SHOWERS AND STORMS TO THE TAF SITE
THROUGH THIS TAF PERIOD, THOUGH WITH MOST THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL
THIS AFTERNOON. REDUCTIONS IN VISIBILITY AND CEILING HEIGHTS CAN BE
EXPECTED UNDER HEAVIER RAIN. ALONG WITH THAT, AS MINOR MIXING
DEVELOPS, WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO UPTICK THIS AFTERNOON AND BECOME
MARGINALLY GUSTY AROUND 20 KNOTS OUTSIDE OF ANY THUNDERSTORMS.
OUTSIDE OF ALL OF THAT, THICK CLOUD COVERAGE WILL BE IN PLACE
THROUGH THIS TAF PERIOD.
KCOS AND KPUB: VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
WHILE DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OVERALL, RAIN SHOWERS, AND
POSSIBLY WEAK THUNDERSTORMS, WILL DEVELOP AROUND THE TAF SITES THIS
AFTERNOON. CONFIDENCE IN DIRECT IMPACTS TO A TAF SITE IS LOW,
HOWEVER, IF ONE WERE TO IMPACT A SITE, LOWERED VISIBILITY AND
CEILING HEIGHTS CAN BE EXPECTED. OTHERWISE, THICK CLOUD COVERAGE
WILL BE IN PLACE THROUGH THIS TAF PERIOD.

KMCK IS FORECAST TO SEE THE IFR VISIBILITIES REMAIN, AND LIKELY
WORSEN, OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS BEFORE RETURNING TO VFR IN
THE MID-MORNING. BOTH KGLD AND KMCK WILL SEE GUSTY WINDS START
IN THE MID TO LATE MORNING, PERSISTING THROUGH THE PERIOD. MOST
GUSTS WILL BE IN THE 18-25 KTS RANGE, BUT SOME GUSTS CLOSER TO
30 KTS ARE POSSIBLE. KMCK ALSO HAS BEEN SHOWING A DECENT SIGN OF
LLWS AROUND SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING FROM THE SOUTH-SOUTHWEST AT
40 KTS AROUND 300 FEET AGL. IT IS POSSIBLE SURFACE WINDS ARE
STRONG ENOUGH THAT LLWS DOES NOT FORM.

LOW LEVEL STRATUS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ACROSS PORTIONS OF EXTREME
SOUTHWEST KANSAS, RESULTING IN IFR CIGS POTENTIALLY AFFECTING THE
VICINITY OF KGCK, KLBL, AND POSSIBLY AS FAR EAST AS KDDC THROUGH
MID-MORNING BEFORE LIFTING/SCATTERING OUT BY MID-DAY. HIGH RELATIVE
HUMIDITY WITHIN A LIGHT SOUTHEAST UPSLOPE FLOW MAY ALSO LEAD TO AREAS
OF FOG DEVELOPMENT TOWARD DAYBREAK, BRINGING POSSIBLE MVFR/IFR VSBYS
TO THE VICINITY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED TAF SITES. LIGHT SOUTHERLY WINDS
THROUGH MID-MORNING ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE 10 TO 20KT WITH GUSTS
UP TO 25KT GENERALLY AFTER 14-16Z AS A LEE SIDE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE
STRENGTHENS IN EASTERN COLORADO.
