Cheyenne, WY – Residents across southeastern Wyoming are starting the week with a sharp drop in temperatures and the possibility of a widespread freeze early Tuesday morning, according to the US National Weather Service in Cheyenne.
Forecasters say Monday will remain cool, with isolated showers possible in the afternoon and highs reaching only the 40s to mid-50s. The coldest stretch arrives overnight into Tuesday morning, when temperatures could dip into the 20s and low 30s, prompting potential freeze conditions before a gradual warm-up begins later that day.
According to the National Weather Service, skies will clear Tuesday with calm winds, leading into mostly sunny and warmer weather Wednesday and Thursday. Highs are expected to climb into the 70s, with mild overnight lows in the 30s and 40s.
By Friday, a shift in weather patterns will bring an increase in rain chances across the region, though no high winds are expected through the week. Breezy conditions may develop at times, but forecasters emphasize a generally calm, dry midweek before precipitation returns.
Residents are advised to protect sensitive plants and outdoor plumbing from freezing temperatures Monday night into early Tuesday.
