.AVIATION /06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1158 PM MDT Mon Aug 18 2025
Showers and storms have ended at DEN and are not expected for the
rest of the night. Winds will shift towards drainage around 08Z.
Conditions will be much more stable on Tuesday than on Monday. A
cap will be strongest over DEN and it is unlikely any showers or
storms form over DEN. However, an outflow boundary may still move
through the terminal with gusts up to 36 knots. At BJC and APA,
convection coming off the higher terrain may move over the
terminals. The primary concern will also be strong wind gusts. The
evening will likely see southerly winds behind an outflow boundary
with more a of southeast component overnight.

KCOS and KPUB: VFR conditions are expected over the next 24 hours.
Lingering vcsh at KCOS should end by 08z, with decreasing
clouds overnight. Included a prob30 for tsra at both KCOS/KPUB
from 21z/22z til 02z, as most CAMs show convection at/near both
sites from late afternoon into the evening. Main impact from
storms will again be gusty/erratic outflow winds, before
activity pushes east onto the plains and dissipates by late
evening.
KALS: VFR conditions are expected over the next 24 hours, dry
conditions are anticipated through tomorrow afternoon, with
periods of mid to high level clouds. Low chance for a shower or
thunderstorm to impact the TAF site late tomorrow afternoon,
however confidence in this is too low at this time to include in
the TAF. Winds will generally be light overnight into Tue
morning, then a few CAMs suggest outflows from distant
convection over the Sangres may generate gusty e-se winds from
mid-afternoon into Tue evening.

Daily chances for showers/storms possible between 18Z-03Z, with
greatest activity likely across the higher terrain. Outside of
storm driven gusty winds, look for variable winds 5-10 kts.

VFR conditions are expected to predominate through 06Z
Wednesday. Mainly dry conditions should be present at the TAF
sites with any isolated showers remaining in the mountains. The
one exception may be in vicinity of KWRL, where smoke from the
Red Canyon fire may bring occasional reduced visibility. Wind
should remain at 15 knots or less through the period.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 1050 PM MDT Mon Aug 18 2025
Period of quiet weather expected to begin Tuesday as a strengthening
upper level high pressure over Colorado dominates the weather
pattern across the Front Range.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: VFR conditions will prevail over the next 24
hours. After a period of gusty southerly winds for KCYS and KLAR,
winds should become light out of the south or southeast. Expect this
to continue through Tuesday with gusts up to 20 knots. Can`t rule
out a few showers or thunderstorms for the southeast Wyoming
terminals, but due to limited coverage (very isolated), kept out of
those TAFs for now.

Aside from a potential for lingering showers/storms (and
gusty/erratic winds) at the very beginning of the TAF period
(late this evening and very early Tue morning, or ~05-08Z Tue)..
VFR conditions and light/variable winds will otherwise prevail
at both terminals.

A loosely organized cluster of showers and thunderstorms will
continue to dissipate through the beginning of this new TAF
period. Winds will eventually settle down to 10 knots or less at
all airports, especially after 08Z or 09Z and will remain light
through the rest of this TAF period given the lack of a pressure
gradient with the upper level high in vicinity of southwestern
Kansas.

VFR conditions are forecast for most of this TAF cycle. Isolated
showers and storms are possible over the next few hours, will
address with amendments if they look to impact the terminals.
Additional chances for storms are likely late in this 24 hour
period. Have included PROB30 groups to account for that potential
at KDHT and KAMA. Outside of any storms, winds will remain light
around 10 kts or less with some mid to high clouds over the
region.

Lingering SHRA/TS over eastern NM will dissipate while moving
slowly southwest thru sunrise. Patchy mid level cloud decks will
persist thru sunrise within central and eastern NM. A few patches
of MVFR low cigs may develop along the east slopes of the central
mt chain and around KTCC and KCAO but probabilities are <15%.
Partial clearing after sunrise will give way to another round of
scattered to numerous SHRA/TS over the higher terrain by 11am.
This activity will move slowly southwest while developing on
convective outflows into nearby highlands and valleys thru sunset.
A second area of SHRA/TS may develop over eastern NM after sunset
then also move southwest thru midnight. Direct hits from any
storms Tuesday afternoon may produce brief MVFR vsbys with heavy
rain.
