.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1024 AM MST Tue Dec 9 2025
All terminals anticipated to remain under VFR conditions through
the TAF period, however there is potential for a brief window of
lower SCT bases near 015 for KDEN between 07-13Z tonight/early Wed
AM.
For winds, current gusty west winds are expected to hold fairly
steady for the next 3-5 hours, before gaining a more northerly
component later afternoon at KDEN/KAPA. A weak FROPA will bring a
northeasterly direction starting 04-06Z tonight, with winds
gradually veering towards southerly drainage flow closer to
sunrise. Breezy daytime NW winds are forecast to resurface Wed,
but should be notably weaker than today`s. Winds will remain more
consistently out of the W at KBJC, with frequent gusts exceeding
40 kts through at least mid afternoon today.

VFR conditions across nearly all terminals through the period with
the one exception being KJAC where a weather system will bring
periods of rain/snow. Rain/snow showers will periodically move
through KJAC for the start of the period. MVFR to possibly IFR
conditions may be possible at times especially with any heavier
showers. Precipitation will be possible at KJAC through the
overnight with temperatures likely at or slightly above freezing
leading to a mix of rain/snow or all rain. Showers should gradually
dissipate by the late morning hours on Wednesday. The other
terminals that may see an isolated brief shower or two are KCOD,
KPNA, KCPR, and KWRL. Most of these terminals have low chances, less
than 30% for a shower with possibly better chances at KCOD Wednesday
morning. The other main concern will be strong gusty winds of 35 to
45 knots at KCOD, KCPR, and KRKS. These winds are expected to
persist for another 2 or 3 hours after the start of the period
before weakening. Winds will return to these terminals once again
Wednesday morning with 30 to 40 knots possible through the end of
the period. All other terminals are not forecast to see as strong of
winds but gusty conditions will still be possible at times.
Widespread gusts of 25 to 35 knots are possible at or shortly
after the start of the period with these winds weakening after
sunset with breezy conditions lingering. Mountain obscuration
will likely persist through all of the TAF period with some
improvement possible near the end of the period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC
for the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence
forecasts.

MVFR cigs may sneak into RWL and LAR this afternoon into early
tonight but the main story remains the anomalous high wind
event. Gusts upwards of 60-70kts in the Wyoming terminals and
50kts in the Nebraska sites will linger through the evening with
gusts dropping below 30kts for all sites by or around 12z. Much
more tranquil for most tomorrow as winds turn SW outside the
mountains and sustained winds under 15 mph. A few snow showers
are possible mainly for Wyoming sites this afternoon as well and
could briefly drop vis to 4-6sm in any heavier showers.

VFR Flight conditions are forecast to prevail through the
period. Winds will be the main thing to focus on. Winds this
afternoon will start off lighter (~5-10 kts) from the west-
southwest and throughout the early afternoon speed up (15-25
kts) from the northwest. Around sunset, as the nocturnal
inversion sets up, winds at the surface will calm a bit, but
this will allow LLWS to set up. Expect 200-500 ft AGL winds to
be from the northwest around 40-50 kts.
Around 1-6Z, a cold front will start impacting the TAF sites.
This will lead to winds gusting around 25-30 kts from the
north-northwest. between 9-15Z, winds will gradually slow as a
ridge builds in from the west.
