Flagstaff Aviation Discussion
Issued at 1054 UTC Thursday, October 9, 2025
.AVIATION...Thursday 09/12Z through Friday 10/12Z...Isold -SHRA/-TSRA
through around 18Z, then increasing coverage through the afternoon
and overnight. The highest coverage of precipitation will be west
of a KPAN-KINW-KRQE line. Mainly VFR outside of rain, with MVFR
and local IFR in showers. More persistent IFR conditions may
develop after 06Z over higher elevation areas including KFLG due
to a combination of low clouds, fog, and rain. Look for sustained
winds out of the SE through SW generally less than 10 kts and
gusts between 15 and 20 kts through the period. Gusty conditions
will be possible with any shower/storm.
OUTLOOK...Friday 10/12Z through Sunday 12/12Z...Widespread SHRA/TSRA
expected through the outlook period. Expect widespread MVFR conditions
and areas of IFR due to continuous periods of SHRA/RA and
isolated TSRA. Periods of IFR/LIFR conditions in FG are also
expected over higher elevation upslope areas, including KFLG/KGCN.
Winds on Friday will generally be light, becoming S-SW at 10-20
kts with gusts near 25 kts on Saturday. Gusty/erratic winds will
also be possible in heavier showers/storms.

.AVIATION...KSLC...The SLC terminal will see VFR conditions
throughout the day. Southerly winds will become gusty at times by
early afternoon. Clouds will increase by early evening with a 30
percent chance of showers impacting the terminal after 00Z.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Increasing moisture will bring
increasing clouds and a threat of showers and thunderstorms over the
southern Utah airspace by late morning/early afternoon. The
moisture, and associated threat of convection, will spread northward
during the remainder of the afternoon and early evening, increasing
the coverage of showers and thunderstorms. Gusty and erratic winds
near thunderstorms along with localized MVFR to IFR restrictions are
the main hazards associated with any thunderstorms.

Issued at 400 AM MDT Thu Oct 9 2025
VFR conditions, with relatively light winds through the period.
Clouds increase from the southwest after 00Z as increasing
moisture advects into the area. SCT-BKN FL120-200 will be in
place over southern/southwestern portions of the forecast area
by 06Z with increasing chances for rain showers. KRKS is the
only terminal expected to be impacted at this time, so have
included a PROB30 group. Chances for rain look to be more
widespread around KBPI/KPNA (10% chance) at this time and left
it out of the forecast. These clouds will continue to stream to
the north-northeast through 12Z Friday, along with chances for
precipitation. This trend will continue into the next TAF
period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

Dense fog has developed near KBFF, KAIA, and KSNY producing LIFR
conditions and visibility under one quarter mile. We may see VIS
gradually improve between 13z and 15z (accounted for with TEMPO
groups), but all should return to VFR by 16z once winds turn
westerly. Southwest to west winds may gust to around 25 knots
this afternoon in Wyoming. A few showers can`t be ruled out
too, but the probability is too low to add to the TAF at this
time.

VFR conditions at all terminals for the next 24 hours. There is a
small exception this morning with patchy fog around KAMA. This
bank of fog can periodically move briefly across the airfield
producing drops to IFR or less. What fog there is will rapidly
dissipate after sunrise. Currently the chances of fog impacting
KAMA is not high enough to be reflected within the TAF. Otherwise
southerly gusty winds can be expected at all terminals for the
daytime hours.

Less coverage of broken to overcast ceilings this morning compared
to yesterday morning. Isolated pockets are lowering to MVFR or
IFR. Cloud cover will begin to break up by this afternoon as
scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms will favor areas
along and west of the Continental Divide. A few isolated showers
and thunderstorms could also develop along the central mountain
chain as well, but confidence is too low to mention anything more
than a vicinity mention at this time.
