CHEYENNE, Wyo. (Wyoming News Now) - After a record hot day in Cheyenne Friday, Saturday has brought a cool down with statewide clouds, rain showers and thunderstorms with a stationary front making its way through Wyoming. This can only help with the several wildfires that have been producing light smoke across the Cowboy State. Idaho nears 70,000 acres, Sugarloaf approaches 1,000, northeast Wyoming Fish fire is almost 7,000 acres and Carter Canyon Nebraska is eclipsed at 15,000 acres burned encapsulating Wyoming in light smoke depending on wind direction. There were 2 severe thunderstorm warnings Saturday. One was north of Casper, the other was north of Cheyenne. Both were relatively small, expired quickly, and no storm reports verified the 60 mph winds and quarter-sized hail radar had indicated.
