.AVIATION /12Z TAFS through 12Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 526 AM MDT Tue Oct 7 2025
Generally MVFR conditions this morning will slowly give way to VFR
during the day. Ceilings are once again a bit varied across the
Denver metro, but soundings suggest the most persistent moisture
is located at roughly 775-700mb (~2000-3000ft AGL). Guidance has
backed away from the previously foggy solutions and instead
maintain that BKN020-030 deck through most of the morning hours.
There should be a gradual scattering out of the stratus along with
a slight rise in ceilings this afternoon, but I`m not confident
that VFR returns until somewhere around 00z this evening. Lowest
confidence in timing is at APA where there`s been an attempt to
erode/advect the stratus out of the area, but with winds gradually
turning north this morning I suspect that won`t last long.
By this evening, drainage flow should develop and any remaining
stratus should dissipate... and that will continue into Wednesday.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 514 AM MDT Tue Oct 7 2025
For KCOS and KPUB..MVFR and IFR ceilings and visibilities are
expected at both stations through much of the forecast period, as
easterly upslope continues across the region. LIFR conditions in
mist and low clouds are likely for a few hours from around 13Z
through 16Z early this morning at KCOS. VFR conditions will be
possible for several hours this afternoon at both stations,
mainly from 19Z through 01 at KPUB, and from around 21Z through
04Z at KCOS, before MVFR and IFR ceilings move back in through
the overnight hours into Wednesday morning.
For KALS..VFR conditions are expected for the next 24 hours with
scattered mid and upper-level cloud decks. Southwest winds gusting
to 22kt will be possible through the daytime hours, with continued
stronger southerly winds into the evening and overnight hours as
well.

Clear skies and light winds continue to start the TAF period.
There remains a 10-40% confidence for fog/low clouds to develop.
Any fog is currently very localized in Yellowstone and the north
end of the Jackson Valley. Have kept the VCFG/low clouds in the
forecast. Any fog development should diminish no later than 17Z,
with clear skies and winds less than 10 kt through the
remainder of the forecast.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 530 AM MDT Tue Oct 7 2025
IFR to LIFR conditions have developed at KLAR, KCYS, and KAIA
due to fog and low clouds this morning. The shallow fog at KAIA
should clear out by around 15z, whereas it may take a few more
hours to reach VFR at KLAR and KCYS where the cloud/fog layer is
a little thicker. Additionally, the chance for a temporary drop
into IFR due to fog and/or low clouds has increased for KCDR and
KBFF, but confidence is still fairly low. This was mentioned
with a morning TEMPO group.
The trend should be towards VFR at all terminals for the
afternoon, but some low clouds just above MVFR may linger around
KCYS and the central/southern NE panhandle into the afternoon.
This should finally clear around sundown. Look for increasing
southerly winds overnight at KLAR, KCDR, and KAIA, followed by
another possible round of low clouds or fog, most probable at
KCYS and KSNY towards Wednesday morning.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 343 AM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025
Little change from previous forecasts for the extended period. Broad
upper-level high pressure remains situated over the Gulf. This
feature will retrograde slightly with amplifying ridging across much
of the southern and central Plains towards Thursday when a 590 dam
dome of high pressure settles around Big Bend National Park.
Amplified southwesterly flow upstream of the ridge axis will fetch
richer moisture from Hurricane Priscilla in the eastern Pacific.
While temperatures climb for the late week with values returning to
the upper 70s and lower 80s, moisture will also increase
considerably with highly anomalous moisture crossing the Front Range
late Friday. Both EPS/GEFS outputs paint Precipitable Water (PWAT)
values exceeding 200% of normal. In fact, NAEFS guidance hints at
PWAT values nearing the max in the model climatology for the time of
year. While normally a setup favoring the threat for rain and heavy
rain at that, the lack of any appreciable disturbance rounding the
ridge will keep the forecast largely devoid of any large scale heavy
rain events. Ridge breakdown begins sometime Saturday as deeper
troughing across the Northwest begins to shift east into the
northern Rockies. Overall, this disturbance should remain well north
and west of the local area and thus keep temperatures from falling
too considerably. This will also keep much of the precipitation
potential out of the area with EPS/GEFS probabilities favoring west
of the Continental Divide. Evolution of the upper-level pattern
beyond this weekend remains somewhat unclear as deterministic and
ensemble guidance diverges considerably. What does appear more
probable is positive height anomalies lingering beyond the end of
the valid forecast period thus suggesting near to slightly above
normal temperatures continuing into the middle of the month.

LIFR ceilings are present at KAMA at this time. Low clouds at
KGUY has at least temporarily dissipating but could return this
morning. However, confidence is low at this time. If so, MVFR to
IFR ceilings would be present. Will continue to
monitor trends and adjust the forecast as needed. Otherwise,
ceilings will lift to VFR this afternoon.

Widespread MVFR/IFR ceilings along and east of the central
mountain chain and generally north of U.S. Highway 60. In fact,
near zero visibility was observed on the webcam near Clines
Corners this past hour. As for terminals IFR/MVFR vis will mainly
be focused along the east slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mts
southward along the central highlands. East canyon winds continue
at KSAF and KABQ. Northerly winds wrapping around the northern
side of the Sandia Mts into KAEG did briefly reach KABQ this past
hour, and a tempo group is introduced for that to potentially
happen again this morning. Even if the Sunport sees northerly
winds at the terminal, east canyon winds below Tijeras Canyon are
likely to just have been pushed a bit south or southeast of the
KABQ terminal. Scattered to numerous afternoon showers and
thunderstorms favored to develop over central NM today, spreading
eastward over the central highlands and east-central plains late
this afternoon and evening. MVFR conditions will accompany any of
the stronger storms. Showers will be slow to taper off b/w KSRR
and KROW tonight into Wednesday morning while low clouds redevelop
over eastern NM and advance westward into portions of the Rio
Grande Valley from KSAF to KABQ. Areas further west along the AZ
border including KGUP and KFMN will stay VFR with lighter
prevailing winds.
