.AVIATION...
FOR THE 12Z TAFS...
TRICKY AVIATION FORECAST THIS MORNING WITH LOTS OF THINGS TO
CONSIDER. FIRST AND FOREMOST IS THE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT
BISECTING THE AREA FROM NEAR KVIH TO KTAZ. CONDITIONS NORTH OF THE
FRONT ARE SQUARELY LIFR-IFR RANGE...WITH CONDITIONS RANGING FROM
LIFR AT KSUS DUE TO FOG TO VFR AT KSTL. SURFACE WAVE ON THE FRONT
NEAR KJLN SHOULD MIGRATE NORTHEAST. INCREASING PRESSURE GRADIENT
SHOULD ALLOW FOR STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY WINDS ACROSS SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE AREA TODAY WHICH SHOULD CAUSE THE FRONT TO PIVOT
NORTHWARD. AREAS WHICH REMAIN NORTH OF THE FRONT (MAINLY ALONG AND
NORTH OF A KCOU TO KPPQ LINE) SHOULD STAY PRETTY LOW TODAY...MAYBE
JUST EDGING OUT OF IFR CONDITIONS FOR BRIEF PERIODS. TEMPERATURES
ARE HOVERING AT OR JUST BELOW THE FREEZING MARK...SO THERE IS A
THREAT FOR SOME FROZEN/FREEZING PRECIP NORTH OF THE FRONT THIS
MORNIGN. AREAS SOUTH OF THE FRONT SHOULD REMAIN/COME UP TO HIGH
MVFR/LOW VFR AHEAD OF THE FRONT. EXPECT A SQUALL LINE TO FORM THIS
AFTERNOON ON OR JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT. MAIN THREAT FROM THE
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING WILL BE WIND GUSTS
IN EXCESS OF 50KTS...BUT THAT THREAT WILL PRIMARILY BE EAST OF THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
