Storms Possible Today, Summer Heat This Weekend

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (Wyoming News Now) - We have a marginal risk of severe weather today, mainly in the eastern portions of Wyoming. These storms could bring some heavy rain, a gust of wind or two, and the strongest of storms could bring some hail with them. The most favorable environment is near the Chugwater area but storms could develop elsewhere as well. The storms will move southeast and could bring rain and thunder to Cheyenne this evening so be prepared for rain just in case if you are headed to Cheyenne Frontier days tonight.
