Southern and central areas will continue to be impacted by snow
showers with MVFR to IFR conditions and ILS breakpoints being
reached through 16Z. Snow then becomes more scattered and
convective favoring the high terrain after 18Z with ILS
conditions at times at KTEX, KDRO and KGUC with the rest of the
area returning to VFR/MVFR conditions. Winds will be gusty at
times from the northwest this afternoon with improving

VFR conditions to start the period and through much of the next
24 hours. Possible fog at most locations to start the period
through mid morning around 16-17Z. However, confidence is ever
decreasing as it has not come to fruition as of yet, despite
the ingredients being there under clear skies, light winds, and
recent precipitation. VCFG will be carried at this time to show
the possibility (<15%). Otherwise, light winds for most under
mainly clear skies. Light gusts up to 18kts at BPI/PNA/CPR/RKS
between 19-02Z during peak heating. Increasing mid level clouds
after sunset around 02Z and especially after 06Z ahead of the
next weaker system. As such, increasing snow chances at JAC to
being towards the end of the period not expected to affect any
other sites west of the Divide until after 12Z Sunday for the
the next TAF cycle.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

Upper level trough axis will remain over the area today with remnant
low clouds and fog near the Colorado border. Can`t rule out a few
snow showers or flurries through the middle of the afternoon over
southeast Wyoming.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: Prevailing MVFR with periods of IFR CIGS
expected at KCYS and KLAR through 16z with a low-end chance at IFR
VIS due to brief fog. Otherwise, VFR conditions expected for all
other terminals over the next 18 to 24 hours with relatively light
winds.

For KGLD & KMCK... VFR conditions are forecast at both
terminals. The better low level moisture has currently stayed
west of the area, keeping ceilings above 4000ft. This is
expected to continue through the day, along with breaks in the
clouds allowing for clearing skies. There are low chances for
rain showers throughout the period. The relative best chance is
after 00Z, but chances are less than 20% and favor areas
generally south of the terminal. There is the possibility as the
system moves north tonight that a brief surge of moisture could
drop ceilings to around 1000-2000ft.

A weather system continues to impact the panhandles through all of
today and much of Sunday. This is currently causing the low level
clouds deck across the panhandles that is producing spotty MVFR
conditions. This deck will linger through the entire TAF period.
This evening increasing moisture will lead to showers and then
thunderstorms that may impact all terminals. Conditions during
this period may degrade down to IFR.

Rain and snow showers will become widespread today as an upper
level low pressure system passes eastward over the forecast area.
Isolated thunderstorms are also expected. Most locations will
experience periods of MVFR and/or IFR conditions. The snow level
will lift near 6000 feet this afternoon, except across northeast
areas where it will remain near 5000 feet. Precipitation will
diminish from west to east late this afternoon through tonight,
except for some lingering showers through early Sunday morning
along the eastern border of NM. Precipitation over eastern areas
will probably changeover to snow tonight before it stops. Areas of
freezing fog are likely late tonight and Sunday morning,
especially where there is fresh snow on the ground. This includes
Gallup, Las Vegas, the area from Cuba to Chama and Dulce, and
Angel Fire.
