What is the valid period for the TAF for KMEM?

Explanation:
TAFs cover a 24-hour forecast window and are issued four times a day at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC. The valid period shown for KMEM reflects the standard 24-hour block that begins with the 1800Z issuance on the 12th and ends at the end of the following calendar day, which is written as 13th 2400Z. This presentation aligns with how the forecast window is defined and crosses the date boundary, marking a complete 24-hour period. The other options either don’t align with the normal issuance times or don’t represent a full 24-hour block, so they don’t fit the standard TAF validity pattern.
