.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 1154 AM MDT Thu Jul 3 2025
Showers have begun in eastern Utah. Over the next few hours
showers and thunderstorms will spread across the region,
potentially impacting most TAF sites. The main threats will be
gusty outflow winds, frequent lightning, and heavy rain. VFR
conditions are expected to prevail, but brief drops to MVFR
conditions are possible during periods of heavy rain. Coverage
of showers should become isolated by 12Z, but precipitation is
possible through the night, especially north of I-70.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 1154 AM MDT Thu Jul 3 2025
Showers have begun in eastern Utah. Over the next few hours
showers and thunderstorms will spread across the region,
potentially impacting most TAF sites. The main threats will be
gusty outflow winds, frequent lightning, and heavy rain. VFR
conditions are expected to prevail, but brief drops to MVFR
conditions are possible during periods of heavy rain. Coverage
of showers should become isolated by 12Z, but precipitation is
possible through the night, especially north of I-70.

.AVIATION...KSLC...Overall VFR conditions prevail at the terminal
through the TAF period. Predominant winds remain light out of the
southeast this morning. Outflow from convection over the terrain to
the east may induce an easterly wind as early as 18Z.
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Monsoonal moisture across the
region will yield the highest coverage of thunderstorms from roughly
a line from CDC to HCR and east this afternoon and evening.
Terminals in this area will see a threat of periodic reduction to
IFR conditions in heavier thunderstorms along with the potential for
gusty and erratic winds.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 1110 AM MDT Thu Jul 3 2025
A difficult TAF forecast. Moisture will be moving in from the south
today. In combination with afternoon heating and shortwave activity,
showers and thunderstorms are possible through much of the period
for all sites. For this afternoon, chances are 20% to 40% starting
roughly 18z. A shortwave keeps shower chances going even after this
evening, lasting longest (until about 12z) further east at KCPR.
PROB30 groups have been used for all sites through this afternoon
for thunderstorm chances, which could bring brief visibility drops
and gusty winds 30 to 40 mph. It will likely be a "hit-or-miss" kind
of day on whether or not a thunderstorm moves directly over a
terminal.
With chances continuing tonight, PROB30 groups have been included at
some sites for the rain shower chances. Chances generally decrease
from west to east. Thunderstorm chances again increase Friday
afternoon.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on icing and turbulence forecasts.

VFR through 21z is still expected its a little uncertain how far
the ceilings will drop under these storms but model soundings
indicate ceilings will be between 5000-7000ft. However, these
showers may drop visibilities into the MVFR/IFR range especially
over KRWL and KLAR. For our Nebraska terminals the rainfall
looks to start between 12-15z and possibly end by 18z.

VFR today with S winds around 15 kts, gusts around 25 kts. FEW-
SCT050 already developing for KGLD. Expect later-day development
for KMCK. Overnight, low stratus developing as S winds continue
around 10 to 15 kts sustained. Higher confidence MVFR CIGs but
can`t rule out the possibility of IFR, especially towards early
morning. TSRA developing across the front range closer to 18z
Friday, sweeping KGLD / KMCK after 18z.

Relatively quiet aviation period anticipated through 18 UTC
Friday. Initially for this afternoon...a scattered to briefly
broken layer of shallow but VFR cumulus layer will exist
through early evening. The surface lee trough over eastern
Colorado will keep south winds a tad gusty (25+ kt) as well.
Late tonight into early Friday morning may see a shallow layer
of MVFR to possible IFR cloud ceilings develop along a belt of
modest moisture advection. Otherwise, the remainder of the
morning hours will see any stratus fade by mid morning with
gusty (25+ kt) south winds remaining in place.

Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected across
NM today, beginning over the higher terrain by 18z in western and
central NM and shifting off to the lower terrain later in the
afternoon. Scattered MVFR to isolated IFR conditions are likely in
any direct hits by showers or thunderstorms. Highest confidence
remains along and east of the Rio Grande Valley for thunderstorms
impacting terminals (excluding KROW, where confidence is lower).
Storms are most likely to move off into eastern NM later this
evening, mainly after 00z and continuing as late as 06z. VFR
conditions are very likely to prevail after this, with dry air
moving in from the west to east.
