Dangerous Temperatures

By NWS Cheyenne

🥶 Arctic air incoming! Over the next several days, expect extremely cold air as an arctic air mass sits over much of the region. Not only will both high and low temperatures be extremely cold, but dangerously cold wind chills are also expected.

❗ In this graphic the temperatures in the box represent either the forecast high or low temperature (low temperature is at night/early morning; high temperature is during the day/afternoon). The color of the box will equate to the forecast wind chills during that time period. For example, tonight, the forecast low temperature in Cheyenne is -19°F with wind chills between -40 and -30°F.

🌡 Dangerously cold wind chills could cause frostbite on exposed skin in as little as 10 minutes. Avoid outside activities if possible. If you must be outside, dress appropriately and bundle up!
