For our extended forecasts, in Cheyenne we have daily chances of rain but our best storm chances are going to be today, then Monday next week and through the week ahead. The good news is that the rain will be bringing cooler air for us and our highs will be much more comfortable than the mid 90s we had at times.

In Casper, the 90s will return and we’re still going to be hot until late next week but we have daily rain chances as well. Most of our rain chances are less likely than Cheyenne but a few isolated showers will move on through the area bringing rain to some areas. Later next week though our rain chances improve and so do our temperatures as they begin to drop to more comfortable ranges.
