While the next few days in southeast Wyoming are expected to feature summer-like weather, a blast of winter could be headed our way before too long.

That's according to the Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service.

The agency posted the following on its website:

Heads up for an unsettled weather pattern returning next week across southeast Wyoming and Nebraska Panhandle. The high pressure that has been giving us the great Fall weather is going to break down, opening the area for several cold fronts to move through. Nice weather Sunday and most of Monday. We begin to see the first cold front Monday afternoon, that will bring rain showers to areas west of the Laramie Range. Next cold front Wednesday and then a much stronger (and colder) arctic front is possible Thursday into Friday next week. This arctic front may bring very cold temperatures and widespread snow to all areas the end of next week. If making travel or recreation plans next week, keep an eye on the forecast. Stay tuned!


But the next few days should be very nice:

Couldn't ask for better weather across southeast Wyoming and Nebraska Panhandle the next few days. With sunny skies, dry weather and warm temperatures, it doesn't feel like October. Warmest day expected to be Friday, when 80s return to the Panhandle and 70s for most of southeast Wyoming. No weather impacts expected through Saturday. Enjoy!
