National Weather Service

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service has posted a winter weather advisory for parts of southeast Wyoming for Saturday evening into Sunday morning.

A stronger front then moves through Sunday night and will bring widespread snow Monday and Monday night.

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service says motorists could face weather-related challenges as Thanksgiving Day approaches.

To be clear, that was an actual temperature reading, not a wind chill. But several wind chills of below -20 were also recorded around the region.

Winds during the overnight hours will combine with cold temperatures to make for sub-zero wind chill values across the region.

Winter Weather Advisories/Warnings remain in effect through this afternoon from Cheyenne to Arlington along Interstate 80.

Snow, wind, and bitterly cold temperatures are headed our way.

High temperatures for the rest of the week will remain well below average, with bitterly cold overnight lows and wind chills.

If you think Saturday was a windy day in southeast Wyoming even by the windblown standards of the Cowboy State, you are right.

The weather service warns that these won't just be your typical Wyoming winds.

3-5 inches of snow is expected at lower elevations under that advisory, with up to a foot of snow possible at higher elevations.
