The current warm, dry weather in southeast Wyoming has prompted the National Weather Service in Cheyenne to issue a Red Flag Fire warning.

In the latest report, the warning area included Laramie but not Cheyenne. However, the warning could be extended to cover Cheyenne and other areas at any time.

The agency also says, "Warnings have been expanded a bit more south and eastwards, and while most of Laramie County is not included, elevated to near critical conditions are expected for Cheyenne as well."

The agency posted the following on its website:


"A Red Flag Warning is in effect through 8 PM on Thursday for low relative humidity and gusty winds. Warnings have been expanded a bit more south and eastwards, and while most of Laramie County is not included, elevated to near critical conditions are expected for Cheyenne as well."

PICTURES: See Inside Dolly Parton's Magical California Hideaway

Dolly Parton's taste in real estate was just as simple and down-home as she was -- and in the case of her former California cottage, just as magical!

Her 2,500-quare-foot residence in an exclusive part of California offered the multi-media superstar a whimsical retreat from the pressures of her busy schedule -- and now it can offer a potential buyer a once-in-a-lifetime investment opportunity.
