Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion
Issued at 2019 UTC Friday, August 8, 2025
.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday/...
Issued at 1143 AM MDT Fri Aug 8 2025
Wind direction the next couple hours, before mixing out is highly
uncertain. A stronger push of west winds near LMO is producing a
wind eddy to the south with southeast winds at BJC. Eventually we
are expected to mix out with west-northwest winds gusting to 30
knots. A boundary (weak cold front) is slowly sinking south across
northeast Colorado. This is expected to push through, 23Z to 00Z
and bring northerly winds. If the westerly winds don`t slow it
down, it could arrive sooner. There`s a slight chance (10-20%) for
showers and storms behind the cold front tonight (02-10Z),
however the best chance for storms will be over far northeast
Colorado.
By 06z, winds are expected to have turned to the southeast and
remain a southerly direction through Saturday morning. There`ll be
a chance (~30%) for thunderstorms after 21Z Saturday. The chance
for thunderstorms will improve into Saturday evening.

KALS: VFR conditions expected through 24 hours. Gusty west winds
will weaken overnight while mid-level clouds slowly clear. Gusty
winds 20-25 knots are expected with increased cloud cover Saturday
afternoon.
KCOS and KPUB: Over the next few hours, between 00Z and about 05Z, a
front will move in from the north. Winds at both terminals will gain
a northwest, then more northerly component, with gusts to around 30
knots possible as cloud cover increases. Winds will weaken by
Saturday morning, though gusty southeast winds will set in across
the area once again by afternoon.
At KCOS, included a PROB30 group Saturday afternoon for potential
showers and storms over the Palmer Divide, as well as gusty outflow
winds.
At KPUB, some of the models have weak showers moving in overnight,
but confidence is not high. If showers do occur, they would be
sparse in coverage, but could result in brief rain and areas of MVFR
cigs for a few hours around 12Z. Included a PROB30 for this
possibility as well.

.AVIATION...Saturday 09/00Z through Sunday 10/00Z...Mostly VFR
conditions will continue. Areas of haze/smoke north of KGCN towards
KPGA, and also south of a KPAN - KSOW line. Isolated
-SHRA/-TSRA southeast of a KPAN - KSJN line with gusty outflow
winds up to 40 kts possible. SW through W winds gusting to 30 kts
through about 03Z and then decreasing to less than 10 kts
overnight. On Saturday, W winds around 10-15 kts with gusts to 20
kts. Scattered -SHRA/-TSRA in the White Mountains with an
isolated -TSRA as far west as KFLG.
OUTLOOK...Sunday 10/00Z through Tuesday 12/00Z...Expect VFR
conditions with localized areas of haze/smoke north of KGCN and
south of a KPAN - KSOW line. Look for daily chances for
-SHRA/-TSRA, primarily across the higher terrain between 18Z-03Z.
Outside of storm driven winds, expect southwest through northwest
winds 10-15 kts gusting up to 25 kts. Light and variable winds
are expected during the overnight periods

SKC skies will be in place through 12Z, before clouds increase
across areas west of the Divide. SCT-BKN FL150-250 will continue
over this area through the rest of the day Saturday, spilling east
of the Divide after 18Z. BKN-OVC skies will be in place across
central and western portions between 21Z and 02Z. Virga showers will
be possible over these areas as well during this time, with KLND
having the best chance (20%). Rain showers will be possible (30-40%)
over far northern portions, but are not expected to impact KCOD
between 01Z and 04Z.
Winds will not be as strong Saturday, with gusts of 18 to 22 kt
occurring for the terminals west of the Divide, including KCPR.
These winds will subside in the evening by sunset. Otherwise, winds
will be light (13kt or less) through the TAF period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence forecasts.

Surface cold front has pushed into Colorado this afternoon with
north winds across the high plains. The front is currently stalled
near Laramie with gusty westerly winds west of the front. A few
showers or an isolated thunderstorm are possible through this
evening.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: VFR conditions will prevail with a midlevel
overcast cloud deck for most terminals through late this evening.
Can`t rule out a few thunderstorms, mainly for KCDR, KSNY, and
KAIA...but confidence remains low. Will keep the PROB30 group in
these TAFs for now, but will likely need to remove them by 03z.

Some showers and storms may impact each terminal this evening
but any threat currently appears to be done around 06-07Z. Winds
are forecast to remain from the northeast which is
climatologically favored for fog and stratus development with
MVFR ceilings currently looking to be the main concern at this
time. VFR conditions are then forecast to return around 14-15Z.
Another round of storm potential may impact the GLD terminal
just after the end of this TAF period as well with severe
potential on the table.

An isolated, but determined supercell is being sustained across
the I-70 corridor region. No severe reports have been collected
from this storm however it is likely (60% chance) to impact the
HYS terminal directly around the time this TAF set becomes
valid. A few scattered storms might be found as well south of
LBL in the OK panhandle. Additional isolated convection through
the evening and overnight cannot be ruled out as a weak surface
cold front moves into the area.

As of early this evening, scatter to isolated shower and
thunderstorms were progressing eastward across the western
Panhandles. These storms may create vicinity lightning and brief
rain showers at KGUY and KDHT, but will likely diminish as we get
later into the overnight hours. From there, all terminals are
expected to return to VFR conditions.

Virga, sprinkles and a few dry thunderstorms along and west of the
Central Mountain Chain will continue to result in gusty and
erratic winds to 40kt, locally higher, through 01-02Z. Meanwhile,
shower and thunderstorm activity across northeast and east central
NM will continue through 03-04Z before diminishing. These storms
will be capable of gusty and erratic wind gusts between 40 and
50kt. After storms diminish, the low level jet will increase
across eastern NM resulting in LLWS at both KTCC and KROW
overnight. The LLJ will weaken by 12Z. On Saturday, another round
of showers and a few thunderstorms will develop favoring the high
terrain areas south of I-40. Gusty and erratic wind gusts will
again be a concern. Additional storms may impact eastern NM late
in the afternoon and evening.
