Finally, looking at our extended forecast, cold temperatures will stick with us for quite some time. Temperatures will warm up on Friday for Cheyenne but it’ll immediately cool off again. Unfortunately, the same is true for Casper where temperatures stay around 26 degrees for most of the week where it warms up slightly and then drops into the teens. These cold temperatures are below average as our average temperature for January is around 30 degrees.
