A cooler, drier weather pattern setting up through mid-June could mean more fires this summer, according to the National Weather Service in Cheyenne.

If you're driving and come around a bend, like on Happy Jack Road, and you find yourself in fog, here is what the National Weather Service says to do:

For the remainder of the week, warmer weather is expected with temperatures warming up into the 60s and possibly 70s.

Total snow accumulations of 6 to 10 inches possible.

Winds of 50 mph, sub-zero windchills, and poor travel conditions are expected.

Heavy snow possible. Total snow accumulations of 8 to 15 inches possible. Winds could gust as high as 50 mph.

The agency warns that ''these strong crosswinds could result in loss of control of vehicles pulling lighter loads, including camping trailers.''

Saturday's temperatures were a far cry from the usual, with several locations in southeast Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle setting record highs.

Another blast of wintry weather is expected to hit southeast Wyoming early next week.

Hazardous travel is likely due to strong winds and blowing snow, especially near the I-80 Summit and the Arlington/Elk Mountain area.

Up to four feet of snow is possible in the Sierra Madre and Snowy Range mountains.

A winter storm watch has been posted for Cheyenne starting on Thursday afternoon.
