An unsettled extended weather forecast for southeast Wyoming and Nebraska Panhandle in store. After a fairly nice start Thursday, it looks like we could see another high wind event for the wind prone areas by the evening. These strong winds could impact travel for light weight and high profile vehicles. A cold front moves through Friday that will bring fairly widespread light snow mainly to southeast Wyoming. A more widespread snow event looks to be taking shape for Monday through Wednesday next week, as a series of disturbances move through the area. Keep an eye on the forecast as we move into Monday next week, as some forecast guidance showing the possibility of significant snowfall, Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon. Stay tuned!
