It looks like a warm, windy week in southeast Wyoming. That's according to the Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service.

But snow is also possible later in the week.

The agency posted this on it's website:

A great start to the week with warming, above average temperatures! Temperatures could make it into the low 60s by the middle of the week! Unfortunately, a cold front coming through Wednesday evening will bring a chance for snow and much colder temperatures. Below average temperatures in the 30s are expected for the later half of the week.

Strong winds are also in the forecast for this week:

5 AM March 13th - Strong winds looks to return to southeast Wyoming Tuesday and Wednesday and therefore High Wind Watches have been issued. Wind gusts around 65 mph are possible near typical wind-prone areas of Arlington, Elk Mountain, and Bordeaux beginning late tonight, while northern Carbon County and much of Converse County could see strong winds beginning Tuesday afternoon. Use caution if traveling as strong cross winds could be hazardous to light weight or high profile vehicles.
