Salt Lake City Aviation Discussion
Issued at 1015 UTC Wednesday, March 12, 2025
.AVIATION...KSLC... Mid-high level clouds continue to build in with
generally southerly flow persisting through the period. Gusts around
20kts have already been observed and are expected to increase to
around 30kts later today, likely persisting through the period. Wind
shear is possible this evening if we are to decouple, though it
appears more likely that winds will continue mixing to the surface
with strong gusts persisting.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING... Southerly flow is expected to
persist across all sites through the period, increasing in magnitude
throughout the day with gusts increasing as well. Additionally, mid-
high level cloud cover will continue to increase throughout the day
ahead of an approaching system.
