Cheyenne, WY – February is set to begin on an unseasonably warm note across Wyoming, according to the National Weather Service in Cheyenne. Highs Sunday are forecast to reach the upper 50s and possibly 60 degrees in parts of the region—about 15 to 20 degrees above normal for early February.
According to the NWS update issued at 2:55 p.m. Friday, Cheyenne is expected to hit 58 degrees, with similar warmth in Sidney and Scottsbluff. Laramie could reach 52 degrees, while Rawlins may see highs near 49. The temperature map shows widespread mid to upper 50s across southeastern Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle.
Forecasters noted the stretch of mild, dry weather reflects a broader winter trend that has kept much of the region warmer than average. Breezy to windy conditions are expected to persist into Sunday, though winds should ease slightly from Friday’s gusts.
While residents may enjoy the early taste of spring, officials note continued dryness could raise fire-weather concerns if the pattern persists into February.
