.SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
Issued at 255 AM MDT Fri Jun 12 2026
Pretty chilly temperatures early this morning with clear skies
and good radiational cooling for mid June. Widespread 40s and
low 40s have been observed so far, with a few locations in the
upper 30s (Saratoga and vicinity). Expect these temperatures to
lower a few more degrees before sunrise. Temperatures are
forecast to rebound today with lighter winds and midlevel winds
backing into the west during the day. Pleasant day to end the
work-week with highs in the upper 70s to upper 80s, warmest
below elevations of 4500 feet. A few locations across western
Nebraska could see the low 90s this afternoon under mostly sunny
skies. Other than fire weather concerns and active fires over
portions of the area, little to no weather impacts expected
today. Not as cool tonight with low temperatures in the middle
40s to middle 50s by early Saturday morning.
Models show the next Canadian cold front diving south into
Wyoming late this evening and early Saturday morning. FROPA
should be pretty quick, with the cold front moving into northern
Colorado by sunrise early Saturday morning. Much cooler Saturday
with highs struggling to reach 70 to 75 degrees across most of
the area, warmest over the Interstate 80 corridor. Further
north, some low clouds are possible with highs in the 60s over
near Douglas, Lusk, and Chadron. Probability of precipitation
has lowered quite a bit behind this front compared to a few days
ago. This is due to a pretty shallow moist layer near the
shallow frontal inversion along with little or no instability at
all. Kept a slight chance of showers, mainly near the mountains
and up north along the US highway 20. Another chilly night
Saturday night with lows in the upper 30s to middle 40s.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Issued at 330 PM MDT Thu Jun 11 2026
The weather for Sunday can be a little tricky. A weak shortwave
trough will be dropping through the Intermountain West as the
Parent low sits and spins over the Great Lakes region of the US.
There doesn`t appear to be very much moisture associated with
this shortwave and the models are depicting very little if any
forcing to really help us overcome the stable dry air.
Confidence is pretty low for any measurable rain so low Pop`s
(25% or lower) generally over the entire CWA with the exception
of Laramie county that has 35% pops or less where the forcing
seemed a little bit stronger. This shortwave may also develop
some precipitation chances early Monday morning but those
chances deteriorate by the afternoon on Monday. Tuesday through
Thursday will have a ridge slowly push into the Intermountain
West and start advecting warm dry air into the region.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 550 AM MDT Fri Jun 12 2026
Flow aloft will become westerly today as another strong cold front
moves southward into Wyoming starting late this afternoon and this
evening. Gusty westerly winds will gradually shift into the north
and northeast tonight.
HAZARDS/WEATHER TRENDS: VFR conditions will continue over the next
24 hours with mostly clear skies. It will be less windy today, but
gusts of 30 to 35 knots are still possible late this morning and
this afternoon for KLAR and KRWL. Some smoke possible near KCDR and
KAIA due to the South Fork fire, but confidence is low enough to
keep out of the TAFs.
