Cheyenne weather history

Cheyenne had quite the snowmageddan in 1979.

In 2009, Cheyenne broke a 137-year-old record with 28 inches of snowfall before Halloween.

While Cheyenne continues to break records for snowfall in late May, here's a demoralizing statistic: since 1883, it has snowed here 16 times during the month of June.

Since 1981, Cheyenne has averaged 1.7 days of measurable snowfall during May, with a monthly average of 2.3 inches.
