.AVIATION /12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday/...
Issued at 510 AM MDT Fri Oct 10 2025
VFR through tonight. Isolated showers/storms are expected after
21z, with a 20% chance of variable winds gusting to 25 knots.
There is some uncertainty about wind direction at KDEN, with a Denver
cyclone boundary likely this afternoon. Either a wind shift from
this boundary or shower outflow will likely result in a period of northerly
winds at KDEN sometime after 19z, more likely after 21z.

At KALS, VFR the next 24 hrs with periods of showers possible
overnight and Saturday. Most precipitation will stay north and
west of the terminal today, so for now won`t include any vcsh
this afternoon. Cigs gradually lower late this afternoon and
overnight as moisture increases, with vcsh after 02z, and
prevailing -shra after 14z. Expect s-sw winds the next 24 hrs,
mainly under 12 kts.
At KPUB and KCOS, VFR the next 24 hrs, with gradually lowering
cigs late this afternoon and overnight. Low risk of a shra over
the higher terrain north/west of KCOS, though expect activity to
remain too far away from the terminal to include a mention at
this point. Winds will follow a weak diurnal pattern through the
period.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 1125 PM MDT Thu Oct 9 2025
Deep tropical moisture is moving into the region from the
southwest with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
spreading to the north. Look for these showers to increase
through the overnight becoming widespread showers across the
region by about 12Z with embedded isolated thunderstorms.
Ceilings will drop to MVFR heights at most TAF sites and IFR
heights at the mountain TAF sites by 18Z, below ILS breakpoints
for KASE, KEGE, KRIL, and most TAF sites. These conditions will
persist well into Saturday.

Deep tropical moisture is moving into the region from the
southwest with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
spreading to the north. Look for these showers to increase
through the overnight becoming widespread showers across the
region by about 12Z with embedded isolated thunderstorms.
Ceilings will drop to MVFR heights at most TAF sites and IFR
heights at the mountain TAF sites by 18Z, below ILS breakpoints
for KASE, KEGE, KRIL, and most TAF sites. These conditions will
persist well into Saturday.

.AVIATION...Friday 10/18Z through Saturday 11/18Z...A persistent
plume of sub-tropical moisture will continue produce areas of -SHRA
and pockets of +SHRA/TSRA through the period. Expect MVFR/IFR and
even small areas of LIFR in the precipitation areas. Outside of
precipitation, mainly VFR with CIGS from 5-10kft AGL. Sfc generally
light and not expected to affect flight operations. Terminal KINW
has no observations.
OUTLOOK...Saturday 11/18Z through Monday 13/18Z...Continued areas
of -SHRA and pockets of +SHRA/TSRA or +TSRA continue through 08Z-12Z
Sunday, before slowly becoming mainly VFR for the remainder of the
period. ISOLD-SCT -SHRA/-TSRA still possible Sunday/Monday afternoon.
Sfc winds S-SW10-20kts, mainly in the daytime hours.

Issued at 1142 AM MDT Fri Oct 10 2025
A broad low over the PACNW will continue to draw tropical moisture
from the remnants of Tropical Storm Priscilla into the region over
the next few days. To start the period, we watch the first wave of
moisture push through the region showers across KBPI/KPNA/KRKS
terminals should end within the first few hours of the period as
they push northeastward through the day. As it taps into weak
instability, an occasional thunderstorm is possible this afternoon,
with most likely chances (20 to 30%) at KCPR. Despite the shower
activity today, VFR conditions are expected to prevail.
There will be general clearing behind the showers this morning and
afternoon from west to east, with generally prevailing light winds.
Saturday morning, the next wave of moisture moves into the region.
Again, impacts are generally expected to be limited and focused west
of the Divide (KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS Terminals). Occasional MVFR
conditions are possible (20% chance) at those terminals Saturday
morning with the shower activity.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

Mid to high level cloud cover is moving in this morning and
showers will not be far behind. Confidence is unusually low in
how widespread rainfall will be today, but WY terminals have
some potential for light to moderate rainfall late morning
through the early evening. Scattered showers and possibly an
isolated thunderstorm may linger into the late evening over the
High Plains.
Gusty south to southeast winds will develop around Nebraska
terminals this afternoon, and will strengthen overnight at KCDR.
There is a chance (30%) for low CIGs and/or fog over the High
Plains early Saturday morning.

For KGLD & KMCK... VFR conditions are forecast through the
period. cloud cover about 12000ft is forecast for most of the
period with moisture streaming over the Rockies. There could be
a few showers tonight, but most of them should stay west of the
terminals. The fog potential tonight is currently below 10% as
cloud cover and winds remaining around 10 kts should keep
dewpoint depressions high enough that fog or low cloud ceilings
shouldn`t be able to form. Tomorrow, a surface low pressure
system is forecast to deepen along the Front Range, increasing
winds speeds to around 20kts with gusts potentially up to
35-40kts from the south.

Drier weather remain present today thanks to the high pressure
system still building over the area. All terminals are expected
to remain at VFR conditions for the day, but some high cloud cover
may push in overnight as remnants from shower activity expected
to occur west of us in New Mexico.

Main aviation impacts will be at KFMN and KGUP over the next 24
hours. Current radar composite indicates a large precipitation
shield over northeastern AZ, with embedded moderate showers. This
precip will gradually work its way into the vicinity of KFMN, and,
to a lesser extent, KGUP. MVFR ceilings and gusty winds are
likely to accompany the more moderate showers and, by this
afternoon, embedded thunderstorms. More widespread MVFR ceilings
and visibilities, along with more rain, move in to those two terminals
between 03-09Z Saturday. At the other terminals, VFR prevails,
with some southerly afternoon breezes east of the central mountain
chain.
