Cheyenne Residents Face Windy, Snow-Free Stretch Ahead of Holiday

Southeast Wyoming residents can expect a dry and warm week that will keep outdoor plans viable through the weekend. The National Weather Service in Cheyenne reports that the area will remain 10 to 15 degrees above average for November, providing a stark contrast to the typical seasonal chill.

Today brings sunny conditions with high temperatures reaching the mid to upper 60s east of Interstate 25. Winds will shift from the west to the south in the afternoon, with gusts hitting 40 mph in exposed areas. Residents should brace for breezy conditions as the day progresses.

Tuesday will see increased wind speeds, with gusts reaching up to 50 mph by the afternoon in wind-prone zones. Despite the stronger gusts, the high will remain near 65 degrees under mostly sunny skies. The following night will be mostly clear with a low around 37 degrees.

Wednesday, Veterans Day, marks the coolest day of the week with a high near 60 degrees. Northwest winds will gust as high as 25 mph. Temperatures will begin to climb again on Thursday, with highs in the low to mid-60s, maintaining the above-average warmth.

Meteorologists predict no snow for the next seven days. The next potential storm system is not expected to enter the area until between November 16 and November 19. If that system brings snow, it would place Cheyenne on the top 10 list for the latest first snowfalls on record. Last year, the first snow arrived on November 8.

The forecast continues with sunny or mostly sunny skies through the weekend. Highs will range from 63 to 65 degrees Friday through Sunday, while overnight lows will dip to the mid-30s. This consistent pattern offers a stable window for local events and travel before the holiday break.
