St. Mary's School, all LCSD schools, City and County government offices will all be closed for another day to give snow removal crews time to better clear the roads.  The roads are still very bad, so I am encouraging you to stay home and avoid traveling at this point.  Please stay safe and know that you are in our prayers!


The Laramie County Commissioners, the Mayor of Cheyenne, and the State of Wyoming have placed the Level 1 Emergency Snow Plan into effect for Cheyenne and Laramie County.

Due to continued transportation issues and unsafe road conditions from the recent extreme weather event, all City of Cheyenne and Laramie County Government offices will be closed for business on Wednesday March 17, 2021.

Pictures From Wyoming Snowpocalypse 2021

After two days and 30-odd inches of sow, southeast Wyoming was left buried. An in the grand tradition of every generation since the invention of the camera, we took pictures of the snow.

The Blizzard of March 2021 covered up our driveways, fences, and in some cases porches. It trapped up in our homes and canceled our plans.

Here's a quick look around the Cheyenne area from Sunday (March 14) and Monday (March 15).
