Thanksgiving day brings in the snow for us around the area. It’ll move in from the northwest and move through the area. The northern areas of Wyoming will see more snow but most of the state will see at least a few flurries and most will see a bit more. Keep the winter weather and much colder temperatures in mind for Thanksgiving and any weekend plans.

Looking at our extended forecasts, some warmer weather for Wednesday but once we hit Thursday much cooler temperatures coming Thanksgiving day and Friday with more snow for Friday statewide. Over the weekend we warm up again with plenty of sunshine but things will still be cold for us statewide. Lows are going to be very cold as well as we make our way through the week. Winds will drop our wind chills even more as we’ll be seeing more Wyoming winds through the area. Overall, Thanksgiving looks to be very chilly and could bring some travel impacts for us as well. Definitely be prepared for the snow and cold temperatures as you prepare for the holiday.

Warmer Wednesday ahead with a much cooler Thanksgiving day and Friday with snow likely for us.
